Cyber has the same comments I have about the Seaview. Moebius
instructions really suck. When I wrote them about the Seaview
instructions they said I was the only one to complain. Now they
screwed up the Pod instructions. Hard to see images, no real idea of
where anything goes. No exploded view images like most other model
companies use as the standard. Moebius has a great idea to bring back
and create subjects of our youth, but if they make it hard to
difficult to put together, well I am just going to skip buying their
stuff.
they copy the same format that Polar Lights did. Instead of simple one
sentence instructions, they give you a long paragraph involving a lot
of steps. Ridiculous. They could not find anyone to create usable
instructions?
This is the 2nd time they screwed up. What are they thinking?

While I am certain everybody can understand your frusturation
at a $100.00 kit that does not have perfect instructions, your
choices are pretty obvious. And, I am fairly certain that you
have taken the least useful approach to improved instructions.
FWIW, poor instructions have been standard fair on resin
conversions and kits from the get go, with some companies being
good to very good, others notoriously poor.
As a local modeller would say - "are you an assembler, or
are you a model builder?" :-)

another approach is to not buy their product. which is the decision In
made. no use in wasting more money. if they keep putting out
instructions similar to the old Hawk figure kits form 1960, with poor
black and white contrast pictures and paragraph text instructions,
they will go the way of Polar Lights. Not worth the trouble.
