  • Scale: 1/12
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue and paintwork
  • Decals: Included to match original livery

How detailed are the parts?

Part moulding is fine and includes small components for realism, which means careful trimming and sanding will improve fit and appearance.

Are aftermarket decals available?

Yes, specialist decal sheets and detail sets exist for this subject if you want alternative markings or higher-resolution graphics.

Should I assemble dry before gluing?

Dry-fitting major subassemblies first helps identify alignment issues and prevents paint damage during final assembly.

Is weathering recommended?

Light weathering can add realism for display, but keep it subtle to preserve the bold 1989 Team Roberts livery.
