Revell GMC Pickup with Snow Plow Plastic Model Kit

Really well made, loved the model.

I'm going to include all of the models in this one review, to avoid writing the same thing seven times. I picked the most iconic, interesting, classic, time consuming, cost effective models I could find. I've been constructing these models all of my life, and I probable always will continue to build them. You might think of them as toys, child's play, let me ashore you there not. They require eye, hand cordination, & plenty of thinking. What else can I say.

Very happy as to how many pieces fit perfectly together with out trimming.

This is no Tamiya, but it’s not bad and is typical of Revell. On the one hand you get to enjoy assembling a GMC truck from the 70s with the same panel lines and mirrors as the Chevy driven by Chief Brody in the original Jaws (albeit that was a soft top), and the snow plow, fog lights, roll bars, gas can, spare tire and extra chrome plating are all a plus, on the other hand expect that everything doesn’t quite fit exactly without a great deal of patience as Revell just doesn’t provide the same precision and assembly-cleverness that we wish they had. Decals offer some additional pop, although only two choices for theme - and neither are particularly compelling. It doesn’t look like they installed the rear view mirror in the picture on the box, and in retrospect I shouldn’t have either. Although I appreciate the detail, gluing that tiny part on clear plastic is a game you only get to play once - if I had to do over I’d pass. The engine compartment and engine itself lacks appreciable detail, although Revell threw lots of chrome at it (valve covers, intake manifold, carb). And the engine just seems tiny under the hood. Is that a V-6? Overall a fun build and not unhappy with results. I give it a B+

Easy

I will purchase from them again

Revell models. Are the best it came out so nice

This is the second one I have bought as we see trucks with plows everywhere up here in the Northwest and the kit is well made!
