Ultimate Build Francesco should be called Ultimate Letdown; it is an embarassment to the franchise. It almost angers me that this set is so bad. It's so bad, I'm not even going to include the “buy this set" link like all the other reviews have. Avoid it. Seriously. Don't even give it as a gift, unless you want to punish the gift recipient.
