Metal Earth Fokker D-VII Model Kit

The Metal Earth Fokker D-VII Fighter Aircraft is a steel model kit licensed for adult hobbyists and collectors. It arrives in a brand-new box containing thirteen pre-cut parts that assemble into a detailed replica of the 1918 German fighter. No glue or paint is required, though tweezers are recommended for the build.

Ideal for casual builders.

This kit suits anyone wanting a straightforward display model with an easy difficulty rating and minimal tool requirements. Buyers who want a model with opening panels, a visible cockpit interior, or a more complex assembly challenge should look at something else.

13-part easy assembly with no glue needed

The kit consists of exactly thirteen steel parts that fold and tab together without adhesive. This low parts count and the easy difficulty rating mean most builders can complete the 2.56 by 2.56 by 1.26 inch model in a single sitting.

Questions about this item

How do I assemble the 13 steel sheets without glue, and what step causes bent tabs?

Fold tabs along scored lines using tweezers; the mistake is twisting tabs instead of folding them flat, which weakens the connection.

Will the finished model need any upkeep or spare parts over time?

No moving parts or consumables exist; occasional dusting with a soft brush keeps the steel surfaces clean.

What limits how long I can handle the model before the thin metal fatigues?

Repeated bending of the same tab during assembly is the only fatigue risk; once built, the static structure has no wear limit.
