Trumpeter Modeling: Quality and Variety

The Chinese company Trumpeter has built up a very good reputation in the field of plastic model making over many years. Military history fans in particular get their money's worth from the product range: Trumpeter has countless models of military vehicles, aircraft and ships in its product range. The range includes more than 900 different plastic model kits.


Trumpeter Modellbau- A brief history of the plastic model kit manufacturer


.
In 1995, the company started with copies of popular models from Tamiya, Revell and other well-known manufacturers. While the kits were not convincing in the early years, the quality improved steadily in the following years. The good quality of Trumpeter's plastic model kits, especially the vehicles and aircraft, can be seen in the detailed components, i.e. the true-to-the-original realisation of the models.

In the meantime, Trumpeter also produces models for Japanese brands and Japanese manufacturers such as Pit-Road and MonoChrome.


Trumpeter model tanks and vehicles



A highlight in the Trumpeter range of military vehicles and an example of the high quality Trumpeter mentioned above is the Panther tank model in 1/16th scale. The model kit of the German battle tank consists of an incredible 2,300 individual parts and features a complete interior of the vehicle. This makes this tank model certainly a highlight in any collection.

But the brand is not limited to the well-known classic tanks and vehicles. In the Trumpeter model catalogue you will also find Chinese and other nations' tanks and vehicles that you would not otherwise find in the range of other manufacturers. A special feature is the good selection of war locomotives and railway guns from the Second World War era. Particularly popular with modellers are the models of the BR52 and the BR57 tank locomotive.

The assortment is very diverse and appeals to every model building fan through different price categories and levels of difficulty. With the large selection of model kits, Trumpeter makes the hearts of model building fans all over the world beat faster.


Trumpeter Model Ship Kits


.
As with the vehicles, the main focus of the ship model range is on plastic model kits of military watercraft. In addition to the model of the German battleship Bismarck, which is popular with modelling fans, many other ship models such as cruisers and aircraft carriers can be found in Trumpeter's range. For example, the range includes ships of the Slava class. But also rarities like the Chengho sailing ship from the Ming Dynasty and various research submarines can be found in the Trumpeter programme.

Of course, a model of the Titanic should not be missing from the range of ship model kits. This very detailed model has an LED lighting package. With this, the model building enthusiast can even illuminate the interior of this legendary ship.

This is a premium model of the ocean liner with the highest level of detail. The photo-etching process was used for the kit, with which even small parts such as railings can be produced particularly cleanly and flawlessly.


Trumpeter Modellbau Aircraft Model



The aircraft models also enjoy great popularity among collectors and model building fans worldwide. In addition to the popular military classics such as the British Hurricane, the various versions of the Messerschmitt 109 or the Star Fighter, Trumpeter also has models of Chinese aircraft such as the J-20 Mighty Dragon in its range. Among the helicopter models, the Chinook and Panther kits are particularly popular.

The models are offered in the scales 1:24, 1:32, 1:48, 1:72, 1:100, 1:144, 1:200, 1:350, 1:700.
