Star Wars: Models from a far, far away galaxy finally for at home
Numerous collectors have eagerly awaited the release of the Bandai Star Wars model kits. The combination of Revell Modellbau and Bandai Star Wars combines precision, great attention to detail and innovative technical implementation. In 2014, the Japanese manufacturer Bandai announced that it had acquired the license to produce Star Wars Collectibles. With the high demand on the model construction of the company Revell, the experienced model builder can exclusively enjoy the Stars Wars Collectibles, which are available for the first time in Europe.
Detail fidelity, simple assembly and multi-coloured kits
Through the cooperation with Revell, the Bandai Star Wars models reach a new level regarding the demands on the model kit. Thus, the kits are produced with high precision and the most modern technologies and are difficult to surpass in high quality. Thanks to the Snap-Fit technology, every fan can assemble the model without glue, which leads to a seamless connection between the various individual parts. Multi-colour components eliminate the need for time-consuming painting in the future, especially as Revell provides two different decal options with each model. Whether you prefer stickers or decals is entirely up to the individual model maker. Both variants allow every tiny detail of the model to come into its own. In addition, many parts are movable. This not only ensures fun during assembly, but also during play. The assembly of the models is connected with a high requirement, but they are naturally not only something for older generations. Children also enjoy the Snap-Fit technology with the individual replicas and can train their fine motor skills.
The Falcon by Han Solo makes the beginning
In the beginning, the Bandai Millennium Falcon from the Perfect Grade series appears. With the scale of 1:72 and 680 parts, the model reaches a size of 48.2 cm after assembly and is an absolute highlight for collectors. Smaller models such as the Allterain fighter runner, abbreviated AT-AT, are available in 1:144 scale, other models such as the Snowspeeder are available in 1:48 scale. Altogether Revell offers a large selection of replicas from the films, of which the Millennium Falcon comes with an LED unit for illuminating the engines and landing gear as well as other small details. Thus, many small pilot figures and small figures from Han Solo, Leia, Chewbacca, Obi-Wan and C-3PO are included in the Millennium Falcon as a perfect complement.
A must for true Star Wars fans
Especially for Star Wars experts, enthusiasts and fans the models are real collector's products. With a detailed orientation to the originals, each model comes with a display stand or a plate to present the models in the best possible way. Even the display stands are an optimal complement to the individual replicas and individually adapted. In order for the models to come close to their originals down to the smallest detail, the designers conducted extensive research on the studio models. Compromises or small errors were not allowed to occur during production. The Star Wars models from Bandai and Revell easily meet the high demands of potential buyers and collectors.
