MPC Boba Fett Starfighter Kit

This 10-inch plastic model kit recreates Boba Fett's Starfighter from The Empire Strikes Back. It is aimed at adult modellers with moderate experience who enjoy licensed Star Wars subjects. The kit arrives in vintage-style packaging and includes a display stand for the finished model.

Assembly Requirements

Paint and cement are required to complete the kit but are not included in the box. Parts are moulded in grey plastic and the model may be painted to match the box illustrations. The manufacturer notes the original packaging remains unopened.

Questions about this item

How do I assemble the 10-inch Boba Fett Starfighter kit, and which step causes the most trouble?

The kit requires plastic cement and paint, which are not included. Builders often rush the sub-assemblies — cockpit, thrusters, and landing gear — before the main fuselage halves are joined, leading to misaligned hatches and cannons. Test-fit every moving part dry, then cement in stages, allowing each joint to cure fully.

What parts of the finished model will need attention later?

The rotating antenna, dual cannons, movable thrusters, and opening hatches rely on small friction-fit pins. Over time these can loosen or bind; a tiny drop of plastic-compatible lubricant on the pivots keeps them operating smoothly without damaging the gray molded parts.

What is the first limitation I will hit when displaying the model long-term?

At 10 inches tall, the starfighter's centre of gravity sits high on the included display stand. Extended shelf display can stress the landing-gear mounts, so reinforce the gear wells with internal styrene strips if the model will remain on the stand permanently.
