wow that sucks man, I'm gonna keep mine far out of reach of anything that could smash it and I don't have to worry about a cat either haha. I managed to get this far with having a snow day at school. The interior paint came out kind of ugly but its alright. I'm pretty impressed with this model that its turning out to look pretty much exactly like the picture on the box. The body just snaps on so I just put it on for show right now.
