Revell 73606 1/58 Anakin'S Starfighter Starter Kit

Often, spontaneous model building fun is thwarted by the fact that you have the kit, but the glue has dried out or you're missing the exact right shade of yellow for the fighter. This starter kit elegantly overcomes these hurdles. You receive a perfectly coordinated complete package that provides everything you need to build Anakin Skywalker's famous starfighter. It's the ideal solution for beginners or as a gift, since you don't have to worry about any additional accessories. Simply unpack the box and start assembling what is arguably the most agile fighter in the galaxy. 

Features

• Everything in one box: The set already contains the appropriate basic colors, a brush and the necessary tube glue for an immediate start.
• Iconic Crew: Bring the detailed cockpit to life with the included Anakin Skywalker pilot figure and R2-D2 replica.
• Quick success: With a manageable 21 parts and level 3, you can quickly achieve a great result without getting lost in the details.
• Compact size: At 10 cm in length, the finished hunter fits perfectly on any desk or in small shelf gaps.
• Authentic details: Despite the small number of parts, the model impresses with its true-to-life weaponry and fine surfaces.

The Eta-2 Actis interceptor is small but mighty – just like this model kit. Here you'll build the aircraft that Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi flew into the Battle of Coruscant at the beginning of "Revenge of the Sith." The model perfectly captures the aggressive, arrow-shaped silhouette of the original.

Thanks to the included Aqua Color paints, you can give the fuselage the characteristic yellow paint scheme that identifies Anakin as a pilot. The included brush and glue are perfectly suited to the requirements of this kit. It's a fun project that will leave you proudly showcasing what you've created with your own hands: a fighter ready to defend the Republic. 

Background information

The Eta-2 Actis-class interceptor is considered the most advanced fighter ever used in the Clone Wars. It was radically optimized for speed and maneuverability, making it extremely deadly but also difficult to fly. Only Jedi, with their superhuman reflexes, could unlock the full potential of this machine. Because the fighter was so compact, there was no room for a hyperdrive, so it relied on external hyperdrive rings. With this model, you're acquiring the aircraft that marks the transition from the Republic's design to the later TIE fighters of the Empire.
