Revell Expands Top-Selling SnapTite® ‘Build & Play’™ Line with New Models for Ages 8+ #StarWars #Review & #Giveaway! (U.S.) Ends 11/29 #HolidayGiftGuide

Lighted cockpits! Audible firepower! Movable wings, gun turrets and more! Revell®’s innovative snap-together, lights-and-sound plastic model kits are returning with three new model kit vehicles from a galaxy far, far away in anticipation of the December release of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Designed for ages 8 and up, the kit series includes a new Rebel ship that will make its debut in the upcoming film as well as a classic Imperial cruiser and a four-legged Imperial walker – all ready for build.

The new plastic model kits are the latest to be released since Revell introduced the Star Wars™ themed SnapTite® Build and Play™ products a year ago to coincide with the premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Those four initial kits earned NPD Group’s #1-selling ranking in the model category in 2015 based on consumer purchase data.

Like their predecessors, the three newest plastic model kits deliver hyper-realistic replicas of each vehicle that also include moving parts, interior lights, and battle action sounds that bring each model to life. The pre-decorated parts permanently snap together with no need for glue, paint or tools. The lineup includes:

· Revell Star Wars SnapTite Build & Play Rebel U-wing Fighter™ - a model kit replica of a sleek new troop transport/gunship that will be unveiled in Rogue One. The 35-piece plastic model kit features a lighted cockpit that reveals Rebel soldiers ready for combat, rotating wings that can switch between two flying modes, removable landing gear, and battle action sound effects that let kids’ imaginations soar.

· Revell Star Wars SnapTite Build & Play Imperial Star Destroyer™ - a plastic model version of the signature vessel of the Imperial fleet introduced in Star Wars: A New Hope in 1977. The model kit has 46 parts, is an impressive 15.75” long when assembled, and includes features like light-up engines and movable gun turrets as well as audible engine vibrations and turbolaser fire.

· Revell Star Wars SnapTite Build & Play Imperial AT-ACT™ Cargo Walker - the newest iteration of the four-legged All Terrain Armored Transport (AT-AT™) first seen in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. The 45-piece plastic model kit produces a walker with a positionable head, shoulders and knees as well as movable guns, an illuminated command cockpit, and both walking and battle action sounds.

The model kits take up to an estimated 60 minutes to assemble, keep kids engaged for hours after the last piece is clicked into place, and utilize ABS plastic that provides durability, easy assembly, exceptional detail and interactive capabilities.

All models were designed with the same computer data used to create the movie props, resulting in strikingly accurate facsimiles of the vehicles that moviegoers experience on the big screen.

Our Review:
Our son is nine years old, but he has some fine motor skills issues and he likes to rush through things, like putting things together. He did most of the At-Act by himself. He only needed help with the legs! He needed a little more help though putting the Rebel U-Wing Fighter together. He really enjoys playing with both of them though! For him, they are new toys! He is especially enjoying that both models make noises!

They went together easily. The At-Act only took about 45 minutes to put together. The Rebel U-Wing Fighter took my son and husband about 40 minutes to put together. I think some Revell SnapTite Build & Play Star Wars models will be wrapped from Santa underneath our Christmas Tree this year for our son! As he really enjoyed putting them together and playing with them!

I feel that these are for children ages 8 years and up, as there's no way that my seven or four year old's could have put these together by themselves.
