no paint, no glue ! well maybe a little glue !
Bought to build as a gift for my mother who has a thing for VW campers. I am not new to model making, but having seen others struggle i prepped for a battle (1 I saw took nearly 2 hours to get done). using lego style fixings technically the whole thing should be glueless, heres what i found, it all fitted together in around 20 mins, not needing to ever dismantel it i used spots of thin glue (pva white glue would do but would slow build) along long seams and for roof, but parts fit lovely and snap fit works. instructions are simple and if followed in order are easy to use, parts are pre coloured or clear, decal as they are are peel stickers. end result is a good model of a VW 1965 camper with vinyl/rubber wheels. who is it good for ? VW FANS, Children or anyone either new to or inexperienced with model building, even experienced modellers looking for a break from the 500 + piece hyper detailed models they're used to. infact its a fun build for anyone from box minimum age to elders though if you have large fingers or arthritic knuckles I would suggest good tweezers for some fo the small parts and stickers. Verry pleased with kit and moms over the moon with the result.

Delighted with great quality
My 5 year old grandson really enjoyed constructing this by himself. Instructions were very good and he had a great sense of achievement. Good play value as well. Deconstructed and made up again multiple times. Very sturdy.

Not Bad.
I found the build a bit ‘temperamental’ at times, the finished truck was pretty good however. Would have given five stars, but for the awful stickers. Mine kept peeling off after only a few hours. A few dabs of Prit Stick sorted things out. Personally I’d have been happy to pay a bit more to have coloured plastic ‘lenses’ to simulate the lights. Not a bad buy though.

Great little beginners model
Bout this little vw bus for my daughter. The first one had a piece missing so contacted the seller and another was sent straight away. Very easy to build. However I’d advise during building this place the pieces in warm water to help flexibility whilst building. Other than a big thumbs up. Definitely be ordering more from this seller

frustrating build, be forewarned!
Nice bus model, shame about the shoddy build. Airfoil, you are not Lego. Lego does this shizzle SO much better! This is neither the sort of glue-together, fiddly, highly detailed model you might associate the brand, nor a beautifully designed and intuitive construction set that you'd associate with Lego, despite the snap-fit and studs being slightly reminiscent. Instead, it's a snap-together kit that doesn't really fit. As a seasoned builder of Lego sets, I bought this for my 14 yo autistic son who has learning disabilities because one thing he's excellent at is following visual instructions and building things - it's pretty much his superpower. This almost defeated him and me, when I stepped in to help. The pieces don't really want to fit together and there's still a gap where the side doesn't marry to the front panels. You need to apply a certain amount of pressure to get things to snap together, and guess what? - when you do that, other bits ping off! SO FRUSTRATING! So if this doesn't sound like it would be for you, be advised.That said, the end product is a pretty nice model of a modern Routemaster and the stickers really add verisimilitude. NO idea how robust it is once built, but I fully expect it to ping apart soon.

I got these as a Secret Santa gift and they were very impressed and happy
You are always nervous buying somebody a Secret Santa gift, you never know if you got it right or horribly wrong and they said they were huge VW fans so I took the plunge and got this camper van.Seeing the end result fully built and his happiness at having the camper van made it all worthwhile, it looks fantastic and was very easy to build he said, along with his magnetic VW badges and chocolates he was utterly delighted and at a very good price, I'm happy that he was happy and would recommend this camper van as a gift for any VW fans.
