Why Builders Choose GoBuildIt.
Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 4.7 / 5 from 132 reviews.
Really loved building this model kit. Very satisfying.
Tough to get sections together, got down to the end missing a couple of small connectors so couldn’t install crane hook.
not done yet, but really enjoy it so far
Product is absolutely phenomenal. Genuinely challenging, but rewarding build. But that’s on CaDa, no buildit. Customer experience through this site is horrendous. Car arrived all bags loose in a plain box - not the actual product box. This is a premium product and the box means a lot to me. Customer service response? “It’s ok all parts are there.” Had a broken piece, by the time customer service actually responded, I had already purchased, received and fitted a new part myself. Again, the product itself is outstanding.

Store owner replied: Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed and honest feedback. We’re really glad you enjoyed the build and found the car challenging and rewarding. We’re genuinely sorry that your experience with the packaging and customer service fell short of expectations. We understand that for a premium product, the presentation and original box can be an important part of the experience, and our response regarding the missing/broken piece should have been much more helpful. Your feedback has been noted, and we’ll work to improve both our packaging and support experience. We truly appreciate you giving GoBuildIt a chance and are glad the product itself lived up to your expectations.

Gold Astronaut Cosmic Explorer 992PCS
Store owner replied: Thank you so much! 🙌 We’re glad you love the look of it. Enjoy your build, and happy building! 🔥
I had a real hard time with the parts that framed the outside skin. They wouldn’t stay locked and it kept falling over and falling over and falling over and I tried gluing them, and that didn’t work, so I got frustrated the threw the thing away. I really wish I could’ve built it. I really wanted that pretty bad. I spent a lot of money on it too.
Store owner replied: Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re really sorry to hear you had such a frustrating time with the build. The outer frame requires the pieces to be assembled in the correct sequence and positioned exactly as shown in the instructions, as even a small difference can affect how securely everything locks together. We understand how frustrating that must have been, especially after putting so much time and money into it. We truly wish you had contacted us before giving up, as we would have been happy to help you through the difficult section.
I enjoyed building the model.
Store owner replied: Thank you for your feedback! 🙌 We’re glad you enjoyed building the model. Happy building, and we hope you enjoy your next GoBuildIt™ build! 🔥

Bag packaging was not super accurate. Instructions were very vague at times, or did not contain enough steps
This was my most fun build to date.
Store owner replied: We're thrilled to hear this was your most enjoyable build yet. We hope your next GoBuildIt™ model is just as much fun—happy building! 🔥
Terrible customer service, order had to be changed after weeks only to find out oroduct was out of stock. The first or 2 i received already has missing parts and poor quality instructions. Never deal with this company.
Interesting Concept, but the Instructions Left Me Confused This was my first building set from this company, and unfortunately I never quite got along with the instructions. For some reason, only the parts added in the current step are shown in color while everything else is displayed in gray. That worked well enough for the vase, but once I started building the flower stems, things quickly went off the rails. At some point, my Epiphyllum bouquet began to resemble a rather unfortunate mutant monster instead of a flower arrangement. I rebuilt it three separate times, convinced I had missed something, but each attempt led me to the same confusing result. In the end, I gave up on following the instructions exactly and built several sections by intuition instead. Surprisingly, that got me much closer to what the finished model was supposed to look like. While this is not the best-looking or most impressive brick-built display piece I've made, I still enjoyed the experience. It was fun to try something different, and I'm glad I gave this brand a chance. I probably won't keep it on display for very long, but it was an interesting build and a worthwhile experiment nonetheless.
Store owner replied: Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback! 🙌 We’re glad you enjoyed trying something different and that you ultimately found the build rewarding. We also appreciate your comments about the instructions—they’re valuable to us and help us improve the building experience for future releases. Thank you for giving GoBuildIt™ a chance, and we hope your next build with us is an even smoother one!

Ordered the satin blue and got the silver🥲
Just started but so far so good
Models good and fits together well. Great addition to the collection.
It was a good build. Had it's challenges. But I really enjoyed it
Store owner replied: Thank you for your feedback! 🙌 We’re glad you enjoyed the build, even with a few challenges along the way. That’s what makes finishing the model even more rewarding! 🔥
The unique blue color scheme makes it look so cool overall... full of details and highly restores the real car.
Store owner replied: Thank you so much for your feedback! 🙌 We’re glad you loved the unique blue color and the attention to detail. It’s great to hear that the finished build captures the look of the real car! 🔥
Havent completed it yet. Instructions aren't the most clear. The bags that contain the parts to build could be marked better and coincide with the Instructions to make things go more smoothly.
I truly enjoyed building this model. Especially the detail. Pieces fit tightly. This allows handling the model without pieces coming apart or falling off.
Store owner replied: We’re glad you enjoyed the detailed build and the secure fit of the pieces. Enjoy your model, and we hope to see you back for your next GoBuildIt™ build! 🔥
geen commentaar. Dit is een bouwdoos voor gevorderde bouwers.

Store owner replied: Bedankt voor je feedback! 🙌 We zijn blij dat je de set hebt gewaardeerd. Inderdaad, dit model is ontworpen voor ervaren bouwers die van een uitdagende en gedetailleerde bouwervaring houden. Veel bouwplezier! 🔥
Love the project. The pieces were sometimes snugger than they should be which made refitting pieces sometimes hard. Beyond that - I loved it!
Very Fast Shipping and Great Communication
So I absolutely LOVED this build. The pieces are amazing quality on par with Lego. The Neptune blue pieces used for the body are gorgeous and the over all build is sturdy and huge! I would have definitely given it 5 stars but unfortunately it was missing some of the motors. I reached out to them and the customer service was very nice and professional and maybe they are still working on getting them to me but it has been almost a month since I reached out and it has been 2 weeks since they have responded to my emails. If I receive the missing parts I will come back and give it 5 stars.
Excellent brick-building experience from start to finish! Delivery was fast, everything arrived in perfect condition, and the quality of the model exceeded my expectations. The instructions were clear, the bricks fit perfectly, and the final result looks incredible. Many thanks!
