The only caveat I see is that.. this thing is loving massive lmao. Actually the biggest handheld ever made and puts the Game Gear & Atari Lynx to shame in terms of size.

Yeah the size is pretty damn massive. Likely still fine to carry around but it's a bit odd.

Comparing this to Steam Machines is silly. Steam Machines were doomed to fail from the start not only due to SteamOS Linux support stuff but because there was pretty much no target market. Either Steam users already had a PC or were better off part upgrading than getting a Steam Machine. This one at least targets a market, niche or not. It might not end up a smash hit but I think it will do well for everyone involved unless there are physical post launch issues involved.

I like some limited-time burgers they got once in awhile, such as the Maestro series.

You can always brush paint with Vallejo's model color lineup. I highly recommend them for their ease of use. Just thin them a bit so you don't get brush strokes. Alternatively you can paint with oil paints which dont leave any brush strokes but take a long ass time to dry so layering is going to be difficult. I know a few people who don't airbrush and their models come out pretty great.

If youre going to get an airbrush. I always recommend the harder and steenback ultra 2 in 1 to everyone. Its a super good airbrush for its value and comes with a 0.4mm nozzle and 0.2mm nozzle. I use it all the time, although I use my H&S infinity for finer work. For a compressor you should just make sure to get one with a tank. I have the Fengda FD-186 and I see a lot of other people recommend this one as well.

That MBT does look super gnarly though. I havent build a kit from zvezda yet, I should definitely check them out.

The MBT is from Academy.

Will note the airbrush and compressor, but yeah the price of entry is still there. It does appeal to me than manual brush though.

I am relatively new and stick to assembly for the time being. The entry cost for painting is too high with the airbrush, compressor and colors.
That said, I am mildly too lazy to even assemble this much. But it's there.
