Original review: I got these and 2 packs of infantry and the infantry was so high quality and easy as pie to assemble I'm just utterly blown away by how terrible these cavalry are. I would rather pay an arm and a leg for GW plastic than ever buy these again.

Hi Justin - what seems to be the problem? Thousands of folks have built these without any issues they're not all that complex?
Response: The main complaint in reviews is how fiddly this kit is, so it's a bit bold to claim it's not complex. But sure, I'll go into detail. The horses come in two pieces and then the head, that part is easy. Saddle next, also easy it fits into place well. If you want armored horses you then need to glue on two cape-like pieces onto the horses neck - these pieces don't fit well at all, leaving me to believe either that's not the next step, or it's just not well shaped. Next is the reins, which is just a U shaped piece thats seems far too large for where it goes, which then connects incredibly awkwardly to an armored plate in the front of the horses chest. I flat out gave up on trying to get those parts to fit together over the terrible cape pieces so my units don't have reins. The infantry units don't fit well onto the saddles at all either, leaving them all leaning weirdly, either a result of making the unit wrong or badly shaped leg pieces I'm not sure. So yes, these need build instructions.
