These
kits are all 1/25 scale and are all snap kits. I think the
last time the Blazer was out, Testors released it as a Sherriffs
truck. I built one of those, but did it as a monster truck.
(at the time, my wife and I had a K5 Blazer).
It
seems surprising the 1949 / 1950 Merc has not been reissued,
since AMT never seems to stop making that kit. (and theirs
is not a snap kit).
Super
Snaps are large scale snap-together kits which will excite
the beginning modeler with their fun-packed themes and easy
assemble.
Super Snap kits feature bodies molded in
three colors, bright plated parts and colorful decals. No
piant or glue is required.
