First of all I have to say that this item is, in my opinion, a USD$20.⁰⁰ and not more. The material is a durable plastic, for a finished model requires paint (red for the body) glue/plastic cement, and a good hobby cutter. As much as the model is pretty unique/rare the model is not at the same level of the preassembled 1/12 scale Little Armory models.
