Ejector seat may be removed even after assembly. Molded parts depicting cockpit and landing gears exhibit an amazing level of detail.

Engine may be displayed separately from plane mounted on a dolly. Includes 1 pilot figure and 3 sets of markings.

Review: Tamiya, you are the best! - Tamiya makes the bests plastic. Models, bar none. Their cars, boats and airplanes (and radio controlled) are the finest quality, and this kit is a perfect example. The details, instructions, decals, all great. This kit is relatively simple, a good intro into the facilitating and educational world of modeling!
Review: Terrific kit! - "Typical" exceptional model by Tamiya, and of a very interesting subject! Because the jet was produced late in WWII when German supplies were short, the He-162A was build primarily of wood. Nonetheless, it was the fastest first-generation jet fighter. Also if you are looking to hone your modeling skills, there is a free video at ScaleModelGuide.com that shows you step-by-step how to do a first-class job of building the kit! In the course he covers: assembly, airbrushing, painting, weathering, applying decals, and washes. Really is worth getting this kit to run through Kris's course.
