If you make a lot of plastic models you should have a sprue cutter or nipper. It allows you to cut the pieces off the trees with little left to trim off.
TIP: Wait to cut off and remove the RCS nozzles, leave them on the trees - Find out why in an upcoming post.
The "X" shape assembly glues into an X shaped recess in the skirt.
The "O" ring doesn't "float" between the X struts. This new design glues the ring into recesses at the center of the Xs.
The tower is made up of two sides now, not four.
You can brush a bit of glue onto the sides seams after pressing it together.
The glued sides of the tower can be smoothed off with 400 grit sandpaper.
