Bought for a person with disability easy to put together and he loves i
Easy to build, only problem was 1 missing piece and a duplicate of another (see pics)
Apart from that, really cool model
Did not go together as well as others, wings were a little twisted and had to alter a part slightly to fit.
Quick to build and ideal to display on a model shelf or inside a glass cabine
These are a great introduction for kids to get into model building. They look fantastic and my boys love playing with them. My only gripe is that some parts dont click together very well.
Relatively easy to construct although the plans could have been better and clear. Our Grandson loves it.
These are an excellent step before lego builds!
This was a gift for my 8yr old, put together with his Daddy and the plane it’s self is excellent once complete, only knocked a star off for the instructions being so difficult to follow
Bought for my grandson’s birthday and arrived on time and he was delighted with it as it was so easy to build
It’s a fun project for the kiddo and a good price but I think I might go for the more expensive Lego sets in future purely because they click together more firmly and are more kid-friendly.
A good quality toy with the parts fitting well together and holding tight. Straightforward to build. Looks very nice and offered to my 6yo for a few days of play (outside building it) which was more than I expected.
I received the correct item….however my box says age 6+ – see attached photos.
I contacted the Airfix company and they said: ”As I am led to understand, the age rating for this product was always intended to be 5+ however this led to issues selling the product in the United States as their version of 5+ so to speak is 6+. To accommodate this, the age rating was changed on all of our stock to say 6+, however we still market this within the UK as 5+”
I thought this information might be useful for anyone buying this item.
Very good.
Kids loved building and playing with this model.
Also have typhoon, harrier and f22 that are also great and I recommend.
The f35 (with moving parts) seemed even better at first, however snapped within minutes of children playing with it and wouldn’t recommend that one.
Suitable for the age range and takes long enough to fit together to keep a child amused
One part for the stand wasn’t a correct fit but OFH wise it’s a great Lego puzzle. My 3 year old boy sussed it ou
A nice idea to get kids into kit building. Given as a present and recipient very happy, only four stars as it is rather expensive for the time it takes to put togethe
Bought for a 5 year old, but enjoyed by all in the family! Clips together easily, no glue, no tools needed. Makes a beautiful little model with smooth edges. The decals (ie stickers) are accurate too.
Some pieces do not ‘lock in’ securely as would be expected, this also occurs with other models.
For the price, Airfix needs to up their quality control.
Great fun for the kids to make although the tail section does snap quite easy. We’ve purchased the red and black hawks and the tail snapped on both. Nothing a little bit of super glue can’t sort out.
I wanted to do a model with my 4yo son. I got the real Airfix model at a school fete but it was too tricky for a 4yo so we gave it to his 7yo cousin and bought this instead. It was great fun doing it together.
So, this is something that falls somewhere between a real model and a toy. Whereas a “proper” Airfix Messerschmitt 109 will require glue, paint, a fair bit of time and a little skill, the “Quick Build” line is constructed very much along the line of Lego and simply clips together in a few minutes to produce something that looks a little (well, more than a little – I’m being uncharitable) like a Bf109.
You get about 35 parts, some stickers and a nicely visual instruction sheet and a stand.
For those who are interested, the finished plane is about 25cm across the wings, making this model roughly 1/40 scale.
As far as the “lego-ness” is concerned, it’s not quite as high quality as the real branded stuff, and the fit is just a little sloppy in places. Nothing to write to your MP about, but not excellent.
I do rather like this kit. I bought it for a slightly whimsical desk ornament at work and it fits that bill perfectly. I shall certainly buy the Airfix Quick Build Spitfire to go alongside this chappy.
