ACA12127 1:35 Academy USMC AH-1Z Cobra 'Shark Mouth' [Model Building KIT]

high quality kit, with good parts, molding and detail.. Typically stick with Tamiya but like this one and will finish it shortly...

I started modeling with Warhammer 40,000 miniatures and this was my first non 40K model. It was a significant step up in complexity and difficulty but was overall fun to put together and paint. Instructions were easy enough to follow and the actual model itself it looks great once put together. Painting something like this was also a new experience for me as it was also my first foray into using an airbrush but it came out alright (I’m an OK painter at best so you can’t fault the model for the mid paint job). Would recommend to experienced modelers and those looking to try something that is a step up in challenge level

This was a lot of fun to build, highly detailed but not overly detailed to where it becomes not fun anymore. If that makes sense…? Very rare that an Academy model comes with quite a few photo etched pieces! The plastic is very high quality as compared to most models, and I’ve been building models off an on again for probably 25 years. Instructions are good but detailed and make sure you pay attention to them closely! Highly, highly recommended this model, especially for this price! Ive done models more than twice the price of this one and were not even close to the same quality of this Helicopter. Just buy it!

It's great

Good model. Lots of pieces. Everything fits well, very minimal modifying here and there. I did my own take on a desert storm type of color way. Does not come with spare parts so don’t lose any smaller pieces. I would purchase from this company again and would recommend. Very fun model to build

Great subject in 1/35! Perfect scale to go along with the many other 1/35 scale kits and accessories. The long thin decals require a bit it patience but overall a very highly detailed kit .

First helicopter I’ve built. Loved the model and the quality of the molds. My only complaint is the amount of shelf space it takes up. It’s large

This is my third one. Great model kit at a great price.

It's a plastic model, I haven't built it yet but everything looks great and intact. Nice detail on the parts.
