Revell SnapTite Apache Helicopter Plastic Model Kit

Ordered for my 7 year old who loves legos and anything else you put together. He wanted to do a model car but I opted for this first before jumping into models that are glued together and painted. He really enjoyed putting it together, downside is, it doesn’t take very long to complete so he’s ready for another one rather quickly. Teaches patience and helps tune fine motor skills in younger generations. Great rainy day or cold weather project too. Already ordered some others for him to assemble.

The Huey was the way to land where there was no landing in country and long time later than Viet Nam the Army gunship did not make the grade in Kosovo.

My husband is currently deployed and he sent this home for our 5 year old son. I know the ages say 8 up but he was super excited to have one just like daddy! We started working on it together and even at being 5 he helped find the pieces (as they are all numbered) and helped click pieces in to place. One piece broke the piece that keeps the little dudes from falling out, some of the pieces don't click on like they should have. But overall it was a nice little project for us to work on and my son loved it. My husband also had this gift wrapped with a note and it was absolutely beautiful it came in gold paper with light blue ribbon and the note had light blue snowflakes on it. It definitely put a smile on my five year olds face even if his daddy couldn't physically be with us on Christmas.

Review from my 10 year old son: I love it! There is really no glue needed, as the description says. The decals stick good too. I was able to put this together myself, and I like the way it looks!

This model is ok. My 9 year old wants to do models so badly. It's supposed to be snap together, but some parts do not fit together great. Some parts that do better if you glue them. I would say overall this is a below average model kit mostly because some parts do not snap together well. My son was able to follow the directions well though so that's a plus.

Got this for my son for his birthday. He’s 10. This was such a disappointment. There was hardly any of it that he could do by himself, my husband ended up having to build most of it for him. I definitely can NOT recommend this model helicopter. The rear wing piece won’t even go into place and it doesn’t come close to fitting like the picture in the instructions shows. We had to super glue some of the pieces together along the way and we will definitely have to super glue this piece, but again it won’t even fit all the way into place even if I force it in. The inside of the mold of the helicopter frame isn’t shaped the right way to accommodate this piece. We are very disappointed and won’t be using this brand again in the future.

I bought this toy for my 8 year old nephew as I wanted him to love the Apache helicopter as much as I do! This is a great toy which now sits at his computer desk reminding him of me :) Advantages: - This is a great toy, at 'not-so-bad' price! - Its easy and fun to assemble. Took my nephew just under 30 mins to put it all together. - Its very similar to what a real apache looks like. Disadvantages: - Its not a toy kids can play with. Assemble it and use it as one of the show pieces on the desk.

Great bonding tool to use with your kids. I loved it when I was a kid now my son gets to enjoy it as well!

Ganz klar hat sich der einkauf gelohnt, der preis stimmt, einfach zusammen zu bauen, als deko sieht es klasse aus)))

you get what you pay for. Its cheap and snap-on so it takes maybe 30 minutes to assemble for my 12 year old. But the thing itself is rickety and comes apart very easily. The base doesnt hold the Heli properly so it kept falling off. Had to use some glue eventually. Like I said, its a nice 30 minute project but I still prefer the complicated ones which take a lot of time and patience and care.

Por el precio recibes un producto de buen tamaño con un nivel de detalle bastante aceptable. Recomiendo usar lija y un cutter para remover las piezas del soporte sin maltratarlas y dejarlas sin bordes. Todo viene en un color gris verdoso militar, pero suopngo puede pintarse, voy a intentarlo. El nivel de ensamblado es muy sencillo para mi gusto, si tienes algo de experiencia.

Amazing replica.For the price it is great. And for a snaptite the details are good. I received good words from my friends who tought it was a nice aircraft. Very satisfied with this product.
