Do you have a son or daughter who wants to build a car model, but has never so much as opened a kit box?

If so, then AMT/Ertl has the kits for you.

They’re 1/25 scale, cost $9.50 each and are called Snapfast Slammers.

All kits are pre-finished (pre-decorated, as the box says), with blacked out windows and no interior.

Vinyl tires are exaggerated in that they’re wide and fat in the rear, small and thin in the front, this results in a distinct nose down attitude.

You only have to snap in the windows and follow that with the belly pan (if they don’t come out of the box already installed) to have the basic car done.

After that, it’s simply a matter of adding a few chrome pieces, slip the tires over the wheels, drive the axles into one wheel, slip the axles thru their housings, add the other wheel/tire and you’re done.

It literally takes longer to describe than to do...

As a final touch, you’ll also a couple of small, temporary tattoos in each box.

Well, the price is not right anymore.

There were seven different models and also somewhat versions, that were with cartoon characters, probably to attract the youngest clientially...

These are great model car kits, its a shame they stopped making them, these kits have big potential and a lot of deatail for being a skill level 1...

Here are my previous ones, and who knows, one day I will have them all, Mmwwaahahaha!
