COBI 5853: Panavia Tornado IDS

Description

This 1:48 COBI model portrays the German Panavia Tornado IDS, the multi-role fighter-bomber known for low-level flight and wide service use. With 493 pieces, it sits in the medium-sized range and should offer a satisfying build without feeling overwhelming. Two pilot minifigures are included, along with an opening cockpit, so the finished aircraft has a more complete display presence. Several features add to the appeal for collectors, including variable-geometry wings, movable ailerons, and landing gear that can be detached for display on the included stand. The set also uses printed markings rather than stickers, and the pilot figures come with uniforms, helmets, and oxygen masks. An elegant name plate rounds out the presentation, making this a solid choice for anyone who wants a recognizable combat aircraft model with a clear shelf display focus.
