My 5 year old son was DYING for a Blue Angels plane for Christmas after seeing the real thing at an airshow. I thought this model would be perfect. He and his father could construct the plane together since it's a "simple" snap together and then my son could fly it around the house to his heart's content. BUT, the pieces did not fit together well and my son soon abandoned the contruction part in frustration leaving my husband to do it himself yet even HE had difficulty getting the parts to fit together and had to use Super Glue on both tail wings because once snapped in, they just sagged flat. The cockpit cover was missing completely from the box, so we went without. The stickers are cool, but so tiny and delicate they could only be applied by an adult. But the worst part is that this model should NOT be described as a "toy." It's so delicate and I was contantly reminding my son to "be very gentle" lest the plane should break and break his heart as well. He finally got tired of not being able to really "play" with the plane, so it now sits on a shelf in his bedroom untouched. Final verdict: this is a model for much older children to assemble and display, NOT a toy for a child to enjoy. And it's not even that great of a model, either. Big disappointment.

Features: Easy snap-together construction, parts molded in color, special decal sheet with one set of authentic markings and a bonus set of custom graphics such as lightning bolts and shark jaws.
