Since I bought this to showcase some Atlantis Shuttle medallions, I was pleased as punch to put that tiny sticker in place! The sticker sheet is the size of an aspirin tablet, so make sure you don’t lose it when you open the packaging. Which brings me to one small high point of this toy: I thought I was buying a generic shuttle, but instead tiny stickers are included that let you customize it as the specific shuttle of your choice. Since I’m displaying rather than playing, that was no issue for me, but these are delicate enough that I felt I had to exercise extreme care in removing and replacing the shuttle for sticker installation. The one lacking feature, as many other reviewers have noted, is that the pins that hold the shuttle to the orange tank obviously won’t last long. The plastic tank with solid rocket boosters and the crawler-transporter platform are cleanly molded, though of less quality and detail than I expected at this price-but, acceptable. The metal shuttle itself is about the size and build quality of a Hot Wheels car-no issue there. I must say that despite accurate specifications (listed at 4 ½” tall) and a picture of the toy in hand, it was still smaller than I expected. The country has been reaching for the stars since. I bought this to exhibit beside some Atlantis Shuttle medallions in a display case. India has successfully launched its second lunar mission which it hopes to land on the Moons south pole.
