Revell Germany 04210 Boeing B-747-200 Model Kit

Nice little kit, perfect size for desktop. Not perfectly symmetrical bit not enough to ruin it.

The aircraft is made of cheap thin plastic. The stickers to decorate aircraft are not stickers it’s a printed paper. No dotted lines, no glue. You have to guess where and how you are going to cut. The engines are super thin and flimsy, couldn’t even get them to stick to aircraft. Never mind the landing gear. Worth maybe $3.00.

Awesome

I have enjoyed building this tiny model enormously.To me, as for a serious professional musician who spends his entire life with music and art, some little time slots allocated for something so different as a model building, were valuable in a sense that they have allowed me to divert my straight attention from my art to putting together the tiny parts of the plane, while, at the same time being able to contemplate on my professional issues. So, it gave me some nice time to relax!The parts were tiny and required some work in removing some bleeds of plastic, which is normal and always must be done carefully. Pre-fitting is necessary, because you should decide on the correct angles of the wings positioning before gluing them to the body.The clear plastic cockpit window didn't tightly fit into the slot, so it either left some openings on the sides or, if fully pushed into the slot, created some unnatural disproportion in the nose-window-roof profile line. Therefore I followed this line and filled up the protrusion caused with a tiny smudges of the white paint to level it with the body and then prolonged the window appearance with the black paint touch. Please note, that the transparent window should be painted from inside in order to give an effect of depth inside of the cockpit.Unfortunately, in my set, one of the moldings with the lower section of the right wing was not fully stamped, so some drawings of the ailerons were partially missing. It would be pointless of sending a request for the replacement either of the entire set or just this particular cast. Besides, the imperfection wasn't too obvious. It just required and additional attention in the painting procedures, which have been actually a lot of fun!All in all, the model is great and looks like a real plane seen from a distance!Thank you, Revell!

It clearly says the scale on the box, but when we opened it and looked at it, it seemed very small

I liked a lot! I will recommend this seller.

Have no real complaints as I ordered it and didn't pay attention to size it's a very small model not what I expected but I only paid $10.99 for. It claims skill level of three I guess small parts make it hard. Fast shipping product was as advertised. Just I didn't pay close enough attention.

Nice product but lack of instructions for a newbie make it so hard to work on it. I had to dig through other web resources to find relevant help info but still messed up in some parts. A nicely written manual with proper instructions would be an encouragement.
