Atlas Messerschmitt Me-262 (Me-262A) Swallow 1/72 Scale Diecast Metal Model

1:72 Scale Metal Diecast - Messerschmitt Me-262 Schwalbe / Sturmvogel (Swallow / Storm bird) - Length: 5.75" Wingspan: 6.75" This Me-262 model is a single seat plane. The cockpit is glue shut. It has no pilot/crew figures included. The landing gear is optional, the pieces for the landing gear will need a little glue to be kept in place. The landing gear can be made to look in the retracted position (in flight) with the optional wheel well covers. There are optional fuel tanks and/or rocket pods that can be attached to the front of the fuselage . A display stand is included. This is really a "no-play" model or a "display-only" model. It is mostly metal and very heavy. It also has a number of antennas which look great but are very fragile. If you have small kids that like to play with your models, save yourself some frustration (and money) and wait till later to get a model like this one. The box is labeled as not suitable for children under 14. The maker of this model did a good job, specifically the color scheme and the markings are very crisp and clear. The panel lines and hatches are very nicely done (engraved). This model comes in a box that measures 6.25 inches by 6.25 inches by 2 inches.
