03796 Eurofighter Typhoon - RAF Échelle 1:144 Maquette Plastique Non Construit/Non Peint

This isn't a great model of the Eurofighter Typhoon, but for the price I suppose expecting more is a bit optimistic. Don't get me wrong, this is a reasonably nice kit, although some of it looks a bit rushed. Nevertheless with some care cleaning the model prior to assembly and careful use of a sharp knife, fine emery paper and file, and a little bit of filler here and there you do get a quite passable model of the Typhoon. Painting helps hugely, although please don't use the short-cut method I recently saw on YouTube to line the panels by using a black fine point marker. Seriously it looks naff, if you want to line the panels, spend a little bit of money and either buy the Tamiya panel liner ink, or one of the cheaper alternatives that are out there. You'll get a better finish. Although to be honest, black lined panel breaks always look a bit fake in my opinion, you're much better off pre-painting the panels in a darker colour of the main colour scheme, or using a thin wash of a darker colour - in this instance, grey, and run that into the panel lines and then carefully painting the model, . It will look better than marker pen. On a model this size though, well, it might be overkill. Revell haven't done too bad a job here, and the under wing accessories help to beef the model up somewhat. They have also made some effort with the decals which are reasonably detailed and help a lot to make the model pop somewhat. This is a good "pocket money" model, although the small pieces might be a challenge for people new to modelling. The main thing here though is to take care over the painting and it will look a lot better. At the end of the day, provided you do a reasonable job assembling and painting this model you won't be too disappointed as it looks pretty good finished. I'm perhaps being a bit snobbish being spoiled with extremely detailed models from other manufacturers. If you want a better model though, consider the 03952 Eurofighter Typhoon from Revell (1/72nd) or if you don't mind the extra size then the 03848 Eurofighter Typhoon BARON SPIRIT (1/48th) looks very nice, also from Revell. Delivery of this model was pretty quick and although the box did get crushed by the delivery firm, the model was undamaged.

The kit is very refined with an excellent selection of decals, and features appear to be quite accurate for this scale.

Overall this product is decent. Although the packaging was slightly damaged. The damaged package did not result in a damaged product though. I found the model easy to build although it's not beginner friendly there are extremely small parts and small decals which can be difficult. No parts were missing in the kit and the model kit was a little expensive for a tiny typhoon.

Very good model enjoyed it very much

My daughter loves planes and anything plane related, she has a range of model planes she has built and this was next on her list. So far so good.

Captures the fantastic sci-fi delta wings + canards shape of the Eurofighter Typhoon perfectly. Lots of 1/144 scale kits lack detail compared with 1/72 kits, but this doesn't. Lots of missiles etc.

Not worth the money half the parts are that small there's no point fitting them the decals are that tiny you can't put them on and the skill level is completely wrong it should be lvl 1 I Built it in a hour

Not what I expected , perhaps my own fault for not reading specs correctly . Smaller than my usual scale with Airfix.

Güzel bir model pek ilgimi ceken bir model değil fakat fiyatian gore yapilabilir olsugu icin tercih ettim kutusu ezildi biraz

A mí personalmente me ha gustado, me lo hubiera quedado yo, pero es muy pequeño y difícil de montar. Como era para un niño de 7 años acabé teniendo que devolverlo sin montarlo, pero para quién le guste las maquetas tiene para entretenerse un rato.

Top Modell, Klasse Decals. Leider nicht umverpackt. Adressierbar auf dem Titelbild

Great gift for my son

Üst seviye... kokpiti yapmam bie ayrı zor kesinlikle air brush almalı ve ilk set olmamalı bir çok ekipman cımbız vs gerek ve daha başka boya ama fiyat performans. Kesinlikle ilk deneme için almayın.
