(Note: the propellers don't spin) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing product *by O***R on 8 April 2026* Great Father’s Day gift ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not for beginners *by G***W on 18 February 2018* This was my second Metal Earth kit and with experience was easier than the lunar lander. There are still some challenges with this one but the result is nice. The things I found hard was getting the rear wings and tail tight enough to stay put. The instructions suggest shaping the rear fuselage slightly before fitting them. On reflection I would try to add them before shaping it too much so you can get access to the tabs and get them firmly in place. Even then I found them sagging a bit or hard to get at the correct angle. In the end I filled the rear fuselage with hot glue to keep them from moving -yes I know that isnthe point of these kits... The second thing I found hard was getting the rear and main fuselages to the same shape. Not doing this makes the join more visible than is should be. This took quite a bit of time and effort to get them even close. The stand is quite a flimsy affair too. Whilst I cannot call mine a museum quality model I am happy with it and it was fun to build. ## Frequently Bought Together - Metal Earth UH-1 Huey Helicopter Color 3D Metal Model Kit Fascinations - Metal Earth UH-60 Black Hawk Helicopter 3D Metal Model Kit Fascinations - Metal Earth B-17 Flying Fortress Color 3D Metal Model Kit Fascinations --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/552784595-metal-earth-uh-1-huey-helicopter-color-3d-metal-model](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/552784595-metal-earth-uh-1-huey-helicopter-color-3d-metal-model) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-20*
