About Revell

Revell produces scale model kits covering aircraft, ships, cars and other subjects. Its aviation range includes military aircraft, fighter jets, historic warbirds and modern airliners. The company began in the United States in 1943 and has more than 75 years of model-making history. Revell provides different levels of model kits, including simpler products for beginners and more detailed kits for experienced model builders.

Aircraft Model Kits

Aircraft are a major part of Revell's model collection.

Its aviation products cover different periods of flying, from World War I and World War II to modern aircraft.

The F-16 Fighting Falcon is one of the aircraft mentioned in its range.

Revell also lists a 1:72 scale Curtiss Hawk 75 kit and a Spitfire Mk.II building project.

These aircraft give model builders different subjects to explore.

Someone interested in military aviation history can choose aircraft from earlier periods, while another modeller may prefer a modern fighter or airliner.

The company's aircraft models include details such as cockpit and wing components.

Revell also provides colour recommendations in its construction instructions to help model builders finish their kits.

Model Kits for Different Skill Levels

Revell uses skill levels to help customers choose a model.

Levels 1 and 2 are recommended for beginners.

Level 1 includes simple plug-in kits that do not require glue. Level 2 involves basic gluing work.

Level 3 introduces more detailed painting and precise assembly.

Models below level 3 are designed for children aged 10 and older. More advanced levels may require supervision or be recommended for ages 14 and above.

The company also produces model sets and starter kits.

These include a model kit, basic paints, glue and brushes.

For someone beginning aircraft modelling, a starter set brings the main assembly and finishing materials together.

New Aircraft Models and Reissues

Revell releases new models and new editions of earlier kits every month.

Across its product range, it introduces around 60 to 80 new products each year.

These include aircraft, ships, cars and radio-controlled models.

The company also produces limited editions and reissues of earlier models.

Its aircraft categories include World War I Aircraft and World War II Aircraft.

This gives model builders access to both newer releases and subjects from earlier aviation history.

Revell also provides spare parts through its customer service and authorized dealers.

Other Model Building Products

Beyond aircraft, Revell makes model kits covering ships, automobiles and other subjects.

Its range includes radio-controlled models, building blocks and wooden models.

Ready-to-run radio-controlled models are suitable for ages 8 and above, while radio-controlled assembly kits require modelling experience.

Revell also provides information about model building and the tools needed for assembly.

For pilots and aviation fans, Revell offers aircraft kits that can be chosen by subject and building experience. Its range covers historic aircraft and modern aviation, with options for both new and experienced modellers.
