I'll start with the fact that I don't really buy acrylic stands. I bought this to use with the Speed Champions Delorean to show off the flying form.
From the jump, it took around 15 minutes to try and peel off the protective layers from the pieces. I alternated between using the tool provided in the kit and my fingernails. Is this normal for these sorts of things? I don't know.
The chemical smell that was associated with the pieces was also quite strong (again, maybe this is normal with acrylic things and I'm just not used to it). So I had to wait a while for it to air out before I could work on it.
Once I started putting the stand together, the top base cracked as I was trying to insert one of the legs. I wasn't using excessive force, either. Luckily it didn't seem to ruin the structural integrity of the stand.
Lastly, the unofficial studs provided in the kit to connect the Delorean to the stand did not fit into the holes of the chassis, so I couldn't get it to sit on it at all. However, replacing them with official studs helped a bit and I was able to get at least 2 of them to fit snuggly into the chassis (this may be more of a design problem of trying to use studs to connect to the chassis).
In the end, I got it to mostly work for my needs, but in the future, I'll likely look elsewhere for a stand that slides legs into the rectangular gaps of the chassis (which I have used for the large Delorean set back in the day) instead of using studs.
