About product

1:24 VW Beetle new shape, the Revell easy-click kit

A plastic car kit in 1:24 scale from Revell. The easy-click designation means that the parts have locks and pins laid out so that the model can be assembled without glue. The attribute new shape refers to the modern form of the Beetle, not to the historic air-cooled car. The number of parts and the extent of the decal sheet are given in the manufacturer's instructions in the package.

The real subject

The Volkswagen Beetle in its modern form is a retro-styled car with front-wheel drive, the engine at the front and bodywork that echoes the shapes of the original Beetle: an arched roof, strongly bulging fenders and round headlights. It differs from the technically unrelated original car in practically everything under the sheet metal; what links them is a deliberate styling line. The car was sold in many color schemes, and the color of the body is the strongest means of expression on this model.

Building and painting tips

The model can be assembled without glue, but for a permanently firm and clean result it pays to secure the critical joints with a spot of cement for plastic. First, though, consider the painting: if you want to spray the body, assemble the model dry, check the fit, take it apart again and paint it part by part. Sand the body down, unify it with primer and apply the color in thin coats; the final gloss coat makes the biggest difference on small car models. Fit the glazing and the headlights only after painting and protect them with masking tape. Do not take sandpaper to the chrome parts unnecessarily, as the marks show clearly on a polished surface.

Who the model is for

  • Beginners and family building, since the joints are laid out for assembly without glue
  • Collectors of civilian cars in 1:24 scale
  • Modelers who want to practice painting a car body on a simple shape
  • Those interested in a quick build with no need for workshop equipment

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted and, thanks to the easy-click design, it can be assembled without glue. Paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Yes, the joints are laid out to snap together. For a permanently firm result we recommend securing the critical joints with a spot of cement for plastic.

It is not. The new shape designation refers to the modern form of the Beetle with front-wheel drive and the engine at the front, which only recalls the original shapes.

You do not, as the parts in these sets tend to be molded in different colors. A sprayed body and a final gloss coat will, however, move the result up a class.

Yes, as a joint build with an adult. The parts are separated with a knife or with nippers, which is a job for an adult, while the clicking itself can be managed by a less experienced builder.
