REVELL STAR WARS MODELS

My kids have been having a blast building and playing with the new Revell Star Wars: The Last Jedi models.  These SnapTite Build & Play Model Kits from Revell are great because they are kid-friendly for putting together and really fun to play with.  My eight year old twins were easily able to follow the instructions and build these impressive looking models without any assistance from dad.  What is really nice is no tools are needed when it comes to assembling them, nor are glue or paint required either, you just snap pieces into place.

While these Star Wars SnapTite models from Revell are assembled with interlocking pieces, they are very sturdy when completed and durable enough to play with as toys.  My son and daughter were racing around the house engaging in a pretend dogfight between Kylo Ren's TIE Fighter and a Resistance A-Wing Fighter.  Both models survived being waved all about in the air by the kids during their mock battle totally intact.  Adding to the kids fun of playing with them, each of The Last Jedi models provides light up and sound special effects (batteries included!).



My son and daughter put together three Star Wars: The Last Jedi Revell models:  First Order Heavy Assault AT-MG Walker, Kylo Ren's TIE Fighter, and a Resistance A-Wing Fighter.  All three of these were a big hit with the kids with their movie accurate details.  Here are a few highlights from each model:

Resistance A-Wing Fighter
  • Light up engines
  • Combat action sounds
  • Battle ready pilot figure
  • Retracting landing gear
  • Opening cockpit hatch
  • 25 parts to assemble
  • Laser gun sounds
  • Simulated flight sounds
  • Light up engine
  • Kylo Ren figure
  • 20 parts to assemble
  • Full-motion positionable head
  • Moveable and poseable legs and feet
  • Simulated stomping sound effects
  • Light up laser gun with shooting sound
  • 46 parts to assemble
Revell's Star Wars: The Last Jedi models have earned A GEEK DADDY nod of approval for being nice looking replicas of vehicles from the movie while also being durable enough for kids to have fun playing with.  The fact they are easy to put together but not fragile to handle is a real plus!  Not having to utilize tools or glues in constructing models that are really sharp to look at is a plus!  The light and sound effects are great enhancements that really make these models fantastic.  It really is great that batteries are included too.
