NewRay Classic Bomber EZ-Build Model Kit: Douglas DC-3

Easy to put together and sturdy. Great gift for my 5 year old and 3 year old grandsons

This was an intro to models for a 1st grader. He was unable to put it together himself but is happy with the end result.As the one who paid for it and had to put it together, there are some comments I thought I should provide.1. It is not very sturdy. The pieces don't connect together well and required me to use some crazy glue to keep the thing together.2. The wheels are a no-go. I couldn't figure out how to attach the set of plastic landing gear wheels and they ended up snapping. The instructions weren't helpful either.Basically, this was an inexpensive way for my kid to get a bomber that he wanted.

Got this for an aging grandfather (86 yrs old) who wanted to build models like he did as a kid. He has mid level dementia/Alzheimer's and could not handle glue or to many small parts. This worked great! It comes with a small screwdriver, but he needed something larger to hold onto. Will be buying more for sure.

I thought it would be bigger.Parts don't fit right.

It's things like this that make me want to stop ordering from Amazon. The build quality is so bad the engines just flop around on the front, the tail feathers keep falling out and assembling it took an adult because of the tiny screws and fit problems. We finally got it together and had to glue everything but man. What a cheap product quality wise.

My father has limited motion in his hands and loves to use these models! They put together easily for him and he loves that they come with a stand!

Great value

When I served in the USAF duruing the Korean War, I had frequent occasion to fly this aircraft from Kimpo (K-14) Air Base to Japan. In addition, I saaw (and flew) this aircraft use JATO (Jet Assisted Take Off) pods that propelled this aircraft like one can't imagine. This plastic model is a damned good replica and I commend the manufacturer for its attention to detail.
