Review: Great for first time builder - Great for a kids first build. Seemed to snap together like legos do. It looked cool when the kid was done. He got a good sense of accomplishment from this kit.
Review: Easy and Fun VW Bug Kit - No Paint, No Glue and No Frustration. - This is a simplified snap-style model kit using a brick type method which builds up in around 30 minutes or less. There are some areas you have to take your time with such as placing the main roof part onto the body but overall it is a well executed piece and no painting is required either. The scale looks to be slightly larger than 1/24 as it is 7.5 inches long when assembled and comes colored as pictured in solid plastic with a glossy finish for the car body. Young kids might need the help of an adult to push a few parts together and apply the stickers such as for the steering wheel, dash, license plate and taillights. Overall, I have no complaints. I highly recommend this to all VW Beetle fans young and old. The kit might be simple compared to someone that builds plastic kits where you need to glue and paint everything. This is for someone that wishes to produce a nice result to display without all the hours of building. One neat feature is that you can fit brick type figures on the front seats if you have some around. This is not really made for rough play but can be pushed around gently.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice little project for a child
*by H***Y on April 7, 2025*

Surprisingly well made. Enjoyed putting it together with my grandson. It snaps together like legos so very easy for a little fella. I'm going to look for other models by this manufacturer. (He's 5 if that helps)
