Why this kit matters
The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG represents a landmark in modern performance cars — developed by AMG, it revived the gull-wing heritage and delivered high performance, rear-wheel drive with a handcrafted engine.
For scale model builders, the Fujimi RS-86 kit captures this high-end subject in 1/24 scale, providing a rich modelling experience with accurate lines and a premium feel. Choosing a model of a modern supercar rather than a typical classic gives your collection a fresh and recognisable highlight.
How to use it
Start by trimming each part from the sprue, cleaning up mould lines and test-fitting pieces. Use plastic cement to assemble interior tub, chassis and body shell. Paint body panels in your chosen finish, add decals if provided, then paint trim, wheels and other details. Once dried and finished, mount the completed model on a shelf or in a display cabinet.
Gift Suggestion
This kit is most suitable as a gift For Him or for older teen/adult hobbyists who appreciate supercars and scale modelling. The need for paint, glue and tools makes it less suited for young children, but it’s a great choice for someone looking to build a detailed model of a modern high-performance car.
Note: This is a plastic model kit. Assembly, paint and glue are required. It is not a toy.
