Airfix QUICKBUILD J6969 New Routemaster Bus & London Taxi Kit Bundle

Model Overview

The Airfix QUICKBUILD J6969 set brings together two instantly recognisable London vehicles in one snap-together model kit: the New Routemaster Bus and the London Taxi LEVC TX. Designed for ages 6 and up, it offers a simple, glue-free way to build a pair of classic city vehicles that appeal to younger builders, hobby newcomers and collectors looking for an easy introduction to model making.

As a plastic hobby kit, QUICKBUILD focuses on straightforward assembly and quick satisfaction rather than complex modelling work. The pieces fit together without glue or paint, making it an approachable build for shared sessions or independent construction. The finished models capture the look of two everyday icons of London transport, with the bus presented in red and the taxi in black.

Subject Background

Combining a Routemaster-style bus and a London taxi gives this set broad visual appeal straight away.
