Revell of Germany 07651 1/24 London Bus

Holy cow! I new 1/24 scale was big but this is the most impressive, inspiring, and largest box of model.Before reviewing this kit, I would like to state my reason for the 5 stars. Amazon still hasn't updated, and says my kit (this kit) is still in transit, but if it was, this review wouldn't exist. Shipping was swift, and packed well. this is the greatest, and most complicated kit I've attempted. Price was right, snagged it before the price increased.Outside the box: All model information, specs, and a mix of illustrations and actual model photos, as well as a summary of the vehicles history. All pannels are decorated in typical Revell of germany kits (but is not stated in the kits title), and the complete skill guide is on back.Inside the box: Although i have not torn into the bags of parts for this review, I am pleased at the packing of, and overall mold quality of the parts.You also get a 90 step instruction booklet, with a complete parts list (in picture format of part trees) with corresponding part numbers, paint list, and guide. Only down side of the kit (so minor ive over looked it in my overall rating), was the decals were not sealed in anything but the instruction booklet.Instructions are easy to follow, and with some time and elbow grease, should yield a showroom model.

Wow, this is an amazing kit, can't wait to start building it

Good kit, but there are no painting instructions and no indication of where to find the correct colors.

Very good model of the old London Route Masters, a must for all bus collectors. Not a kit that can be rushed though must take time, and will need a good size space to work on it, other wise if one takes their time will have a great model of the RML Route Master London coach. If one was handy with plastic models one could cut one down to make an original Route Master RM coach, one would need to remove the middle small window.Maybe Revell can see it in their hearts to make at least the new sides so one can make either the original 27" 7 " RM Route Masters or the 30' RML which this model is.It leads it's self to many model kit bashes, open top etc, I am very happy with my model and do plan to buy another kit to shorten and make an RM route master model from it.

This arrived on time, in good condition and was as described by seller🤪

I already have this model before but I love working on this bus. Take your time getting the paints for it. It’s worth it.

All thanks to Sunstar's 'prototype', no doubt, but I'm pleased to see this excellent kit. (A London trolleybus would have been far more exciting but I suppose we should be grateful for any form of LT bus!) A high level of skill will be required and I may end up paying someone to make it for me - we'll see. Detail is stunningly good and Revell are to be congratulated on such a bold move.

This is not for me, but for my brothers birthday as he used to build them, but i know he will be absolutely thrilled with it, as I was in being able to purchase it as they are as scarce as Hens Teeth here in Australia.
