In addition to their offerings in the typical 1/72, 1/35 and 1/48 scales, they also have a very wide range of passenger aircraft in 1/144 scale, as well as easy-to-assemble glueless miniatures of vehicles in 1/100 scale and aircraft in 1/144 scale, and figures in 1/72 scale. Zvezda models are very good value for money and offer a very good level of detail and fit of parts without overwhelming the modeler with the number of elements.
