Hasegawa 20338 1/24 Volkswagen Beetle Type 1 Mooneyes - Classic hot rod flavour

The Hasegawa 20338 1/24 Volkswagen Beetle Type 1 Mooneyes brings the classic Beetle into the customised scene with Mooneyes artwork and period detailing. It recreates the compact profile and offers a faithful representation suitable for display or diorama work.

Background and era relevance

The Beetle's simple engineering and iconic shape made it a favourite across eras. The Mooneyes treatment references the custom-car and drag community, adding a motorsport edge to the model that appeals to classic car modders.

Parts fit and model experience

Hasegawa parts are precisely moulded to reduce gaps and improve fit during assembly. Interior and exterior elements are separated for accurate painting, and builders will appreciate the crisp lines that simplify finishing and weathering techniques.

Presentation and display notes

When complete, the model makes a compact but eye-catching exhibit on a shelf or in a cabinet. Its distinctive graphics and compact scale suit mixed displays of period customs and small-cabinet collections.

Specifications

  • 1/24 scale model
  • Plastic construction
  • Requires assembly by the modeller
  • Includes Mooneyes decal sheet
Build time varies with experience; expect several relaxed evenings for careful painting and decal work, longer if you add custom detailing.
Yes, many modellers swap wheels for a customised stance. Check rim dimensions and be prepared to modify wheel arches or hubs for fitment.
The kit includes basic interior components with enough detail for painting and weathering; extra aftermarket parts can enhance realism.
Plastic cement or liquid polystyrene works well for seams; use CA glue for small clear parts if needed, applied sparingly to avoid fogging.
