COBI 5710: Junkers Ju52/3m

Description

The Junkers Ju 52/3m is built here as a compact 548 piece model of the famous German three engine transport aircraft from World War II. It captures the aircraft in a Luftwaffe livery linked to the Crete landing, with two figures included, a pilot and a German parachutist, so the finished model has some clear historical scene setting as well as display appeal. This is a build with moving parts, including rotating wheels with rubber tyres, movable propellers and ailerons. The doors to the cargo area and cabin open, letting the figures be placed inside. Printed details are used instead of stickers, which helps the model look cleaner and hold up better during handling. With its realistic proportions and moderate piece count, it suits collectors who want a detailed aircraft model and younger builders who enjoy a more hands on display piece.
