Okay Race Car Guys.
Why did I get a separate transmission and other parts not called for in the Kit? Usually Tamiya will give you a parts Map with the parts not to be used singled out. They didn’t on this one. Oh, and I am still waiting on the John Player decals
I will say this much the plastic sure polishes up nice with Colgate Toothpaste! Not the GEL! Sooo, I don’t guess I will do anything but a clearcoat! Mainly to protect those decals!
Recently, I have noticed that sometimes Tamiya puts little Easter eggs in their kits like that. I know its not a car, but my Tamiya F-4B included a stabilator and chute door for pre-1968 aircraft, and neither one of them are mentioned anywhere in the instructions. I was glad they did though, since I’m building it as a Marine Corps Phantom that was deployed to VietNam in 1966. Wish I had known about those Easter eggs before I went through the painstaking process of removing the leading edge tabs on the stabilators called out in the instructions…still thrilled to find them though.
Gift horse. Leftovers just means more cool stuff for other kits. [:D]

Annnnd it will smell minty fresh sitting on your shelf [8-|]
I guess the OP has never built an AMT 3 in 1 kit!
Way back when, I used to have boxes of left over extra parts sorted out on my work table.
