Fun Lights-&-Sound Vehicle Models for 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' - New from Revell
Snap-Together Vehicles for Ages 6+ Also Feature Moving Parts from Wings to Landing Gear
ELK GROVE VILLAGE, Ill., Sept. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- What's almost as much fun as watching the Empire and the Resistance duke it out in a galaxy far, far away? Building plastic models that let you simulate the action – and now kids can do precisely that with Revell's just-released vehicle assortment of snap-together, interactive model kits from the "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" movie set to hit theaters December 18.
Aimed at ages 6 and up, the first four kits in the series deliver hyper-realistic replicas of the new movie's Millennium Falcon™, Poe's X-Wing Fighter™, Resistance X-Wing Fighter™ and First Order Special Forces Tie Fighter™ – complete with moving parts like retractable landing gear, open/close cockpit hatches, wings that open into attack mode, and even battle action lights and sounds.
Each of the four SnapTite® Build & Play™ model kits has 15 to 20 pre-decorated parts with no need for glue, paint or tools, takes roughly 30 minutes to assemble, and can keep kids engaged for hours after the last piece is clicked into place. They are also the first to use Revell's new DuraMod™ snap design, an innovation in the model market highlighted by extra durability, easy handling and assembly, a high level of detail, and interactivity not available in traditional models.
All Revell Star Wars models for "The Force Awakens" are designed with the same computer data used to create the movie props, resulting in strikingly accurate facsimiles of the vehicles that moviegoers will experience on the big screen.
All four kits are available at both Target and Toys R Us stores, beginning today, at $19.99 each. Batteries are included.
Five additional Star Wars SnapTite kits will be released in October for ages 8 and up. That will be followed in November with Revell's introduction of The Master Series™ consisting of three classic Star Wars paint and glue kits from Fine Molds™ for serious Star Wars model enthusiasts. The Master Series™ Fine Molds line will include 1:48 scale X-Wing™ fighter and Tie™ Fighter and 1:72 scale Millennium Falcon™ models with piece counts up to 900, providing the highest degree of detail of any model kit available.
