Classic Star Wars trilogy model kit--builds up to a display-worthy size.
Featuring 68 parts, some of which are optional—namely the clear part stand—Luke Skywalker’s Snowspeeder, when completed, makes a display-worthy addition to a model collection or looks fine all on its own. Old cartons don’t declare the scale, but a reputable source quotes the Snowspeeder as 1:22, which is slightly larger than most automobile kits. The difficulty rating is also missing, but the recommended age for the kit is age 10 and up. I would give it a 2 at the very least. It includes decals, needs glue and includes small, fragile parts. Being such a good size, it is easily painted, but the instructions I kept from my build are of no help. Cast in white or off-white styrene, the Rebel attack vehicle which debuted in 1980’s, “The Empire Strikes Back”, is a sleek, wedge-shaped, two-seat ... Featuring 68 parts, some of which are optional—namely the clear part stand—Luke Skywalker’s Snowspeeder, when completed, makes a display-worthy addition to a model collection or looks fine all on its own. Old cartons don’t declare the scale, but a reputable source quotes the Snowspeeder as 1:22, which is slightly larger than most automobile kits. The difficulty rating is also missing, but the recommended age for the kit is age 10 and up. I would give it a 2 at the very least. It includes decals, needs glue and includes small, fragile parts. Being such a good size, it is easily painted, but the instructions I kept from my build are of no help. Cast in white or off-white styrene, the Rebel attack vehicle which debuted in 1980’s, “The Empire Strikes Back”, is a sleek, wedge-shaped, two-seat fighter with long barrels affixed to either side—engines in the back, heavy blaster cannons in front in a fanciful chain of geometric shapes. The clear canopy allows a decent view of the interior which can be detailed or left as is. Box designs may vary, but this kit was first produced by MPC in 1980 to coincide with the release of the film and overall is a better build than the series MPC presented for the first Star Wars film. AMT/Ertl may have their name on more recent reissues, but this is from the same old molds. It shows signs of the “20%” rule, which means it isn’t a faithful reproduction of the studio model. Steps were taken to avoid copying the real deal too closely, but this practice was normal for kits of that era. There are panel designs on the hull which aren’t there in the film version and many things on later kits such as Fine Molds and Bandai are omitted. The blaster muzzles for instance are not bored out and the same is true of the rear-facing thrusters. Two pairs of air-brakes and a hinged canopy frame can lift and drop, providing some display variables. A small blaster on the aft section can swivel, but don’t look for a cable attachment on the harpoon gun. The bad news: The two pilot figures are AWFUL—disproportionate and apelike in appearance. Decals are sparse and the box art suggests some application of color here and there. There are much better kits of the Snowspeeder out there, but this is among the larger and easier versions and might have some appeal for those eager to customize a model with potential. Get this one at a bargain if possible.

Feeling like a kid again
I originally built this kit as a kid. I'm a bit older and my skills have improved quite a bit. Looking forward to adding this finished model to my collection.

Great kit, very detailed!
I had this same exact kit when I was a kid and loved the s**t out of it! I used it in my little Super8 movies at the time! It looked exactly like the studio props to me. It brings me a lot of joy to have it again.
