Airfix A55015 RNLI Shannon Class Lifeboat – Starter Kit

Airfix is a British model making company that have been producing injection-moulded plastic scale model kits since 1939. Airfix model kits are so popular in the UK that the brand has become synonymous with plastic model kits. Their range includes cars, naval vessels, aircraft and trains, and they are particularly well known for their range of military models, particularly WW2-era models.

In the Shannon Class Lifeboat, they have a cutting-edge vessel which is as capable as it is versatile, able to be launched and recovered from a beach using a mobile slipway and powered by waterjets, which provide it with both speed and incredible controllability.

This is a lovely little 54 piece starter model kit of the RNLI Shannon Class Lifeboat which is great for beginners. As this is a starter kit, it comes with paints, glue and brushes so you have everything you need to get started. This is a great introduction to model making at a low cost.
