Trumpeter 2420 – Junkers Ju-87A Stuka – Escala 1:24

These 1/24th scale kits from Trumpeter look absolutely amazing in the box.
I have three different Stuka variants now as Trumpeter are my fave manufacturer at the moment.
Trumpeter kits are not as expensive as Takom, Dragon, Ryefield or Meng kits or even 1/32nd Tamiya kits (when you can find them).
I buy these BIG kits when they’re around £70-£90 GBP which they drop to occasionally.
The kits themselves are of very good quality plastic with absolutely no flash and include rubber (vinyl) tyres, kits also include small photoetch sheet\s as most trumpeter kits seem to, very similar to good Hobby Boss kits, but better. (In fact I’d hazard a guess that Trumpeter and Hobby Boss are parts of the same company).
The clear canopy parts of these Stuka kits are massive, good quality items and come boxed separately but in the same big box obviously.
Decals are also big and look good and instructions are usually clear and straightforward.
I haven’t yet built any of these large planes yet but can’t see there being any problems that can’t be sorted by someone with a few modelling skills, in fact I’d say they’re probably easier to build than the fiddly 1/72 and 1/48 scale kits.
The wingspan on these Stukas is enormous by the way, around 70cm or 27½ inches wide, so you’re gonna need a lot of paint and lots of room to display them.
