Trumpeter Model Kit - 1:35

This is a 1:35 scale model kit, which is a common scale for military and vehicle models.

Yes, the kit requires painting to achieve a realistic appearance. Paint is not included.

We recommend using a plastic cement specifically designed for model kits. Glue is not included.

The kit contains 4 figures.

The kit includes models of the M16A2 rifle, M203 grenade launcher, and M249 light machine gun.

While the instructions are easy to follow, the small parts and need for painting and gluing make it best suited for modelers aged 14 and up, with some prior experience being beneficial.

The final dimensions will depend on the pose of the figures and their arrangement, but the 1:35 scale provides a consistent size reference for military models.

Ensure you have removed all excess plastic sprue material from the parts. Check the instructions carefully to confirm you are using the correct parts and orientation. Minor trimming with a hobby knife may be necessary.

Ensure the surfaces to be glued are clean and free of paint or mold release agents. Use the recommended type of plastic cement and apply sparingly. Allow adequate drying time.

Use sharp hobby tools such as a sprue cutter or a hobby knife. Cut close to the part, but be careful not to cut into the part itself. Sand any rough edges smooth.
