Holy crap! It does appear that way. I’m just going to go with the excuse that it was only the second model I did. I think that I’ll check and see if I can gently remove them and put them on the way they’re supposed to go.
It’s an easy mistake to make, and you’re not the only one to have done it 🙂
I’m just finishing up my own kit – just a bit of final weathering/grime to do now – , and I have to say, this kit had possibly the worst decals I’ve ever experienced. Half of them simply disintegrated. Fortunately, I got most on and I can cover up the missing bits with some carefully placed blaster hits 😀
Good luck with the skids.
The 1/1000 scale Enterprise Refit was the worst decal one for me. I haven’t done a write up on it, but there were so many decals that they might as well have been wall paper. As for the landing gear, I tried to remove them last night, but they’re in there pretty good. I’ll see if I can get some superglue remover or something so I can reposition them. Thanks for the heads up, because I know I’ll be doing another one of those at some point.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you’ve installed the landing gear backward. The skids point in the other direction.
