Questions about this item

How do I attach the display stand to the F-16CM model without stressing the landing gear?

The model includes a dedicated display stand designed to cradle the fuselage. Place the aircraft gently onto the stand's support points rather than balancing it on the retractable landing gear, which are detailed but fragile.

Will the paint or decals on the 1/72 scale "Tiger Tiger 1" markings fade or peel over time?

The diecast metal and plastic construction uses factory-applied tampo printing for the 79th Fighter Squadron insignia and tail code 91-0379. Keep the model away from direct sunlight and handle with clean hands to preserve the finish.

At what point does the opening canopy hinge become loose with repeated opening?

The canopy is a detailed movable part on a 1/72 scale diecast airframe. It is designed for occasional display changes; frequent cycling will eventually wear the small hinge pins, so choose a final position and leave it.
