X-wing Fighter Model Kit 1/57 22 cm (8.7 in) - Star Wars

The Star Wars X-wing Fighter model kit is an officially licensed Revell model of the famous rebel starfighter. Its four wings spread in an X shape. The photo shows the finished build: an off-white body with red, orange and gray markings, four blaster cannons on the wingtips, and a light blue transparent canopy over the cockpit. It is a snap kit. The 38 parts click together, and then you glue and paint them.

Building it

The snap-fit parts go together without glue first. Then gluing and painting finish the model. The instructions show every step in pictures, so nothing is left to guess. Painting brings out the panel lines and wing markings from the photo. The transparent canopy lets you show the small pilot figure and dome-shaped droid inside.

On display

Finished, the fighter stands on its three landing gear struts. It works on a shelf or desk next to your other Star Wars models. It is a good gift for a fan who likes to build, and a fun collectible for anyone growing a model kit line.
