I had this set and sadly never finished it. I ran into a lot of issues putting it together (I forget my age at the time) and then at a given point I found a manufacturing defect in a piece that halted my progress and never moved past that. Today it's incredibly easy to order a replacement for a missing or defective piece online. I imagine if I had this set intact today, it would've been trivial to continue.
