Fast & Furious Brian's 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse, 1/25 - Revell 7691

The Brian's 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse snap-fit model kit by Revell, reference 7691, reproduced in 1/25 scale the Mitsubishi Eclipse associated with the character of Brian O'Connor in Fast & Furious. This plastic car kit lets you create a miniature interpretation of one of the iconic vehicles from the first film in the saga.

Brian O'Connor's Mitsubishi Eclipse

In the first Fast & Furious film, Brian O'Connor drives a prepared Mitsubishi Eclipse to get close to the world of street racing. Its green body, contrasting hood, rear spoiler, and distinctive graphics helped make this car a favorite among fans of automotive movies and 1990s tuning.

The Revell 1/25 kit

Made from injected plastic, this model kit includes 75 parts. Once assembled, it measures 179 mm long, 78 mm wide, and 53 mm high. At 1/25 scale, each dimension of the real vehicle is reduced twenty-five times.

The assembly includes, among other details, a multi-part replica of a 2-litre turbo engine. The included decal sheet allows you to apply the The Fast and the Furious decoration matching the depicted vehicle.

Assembly and finishing

Like any snap-together plastic model kit, this one requires preparing the parts before gluing by carefully removing the attachment points from the sprues and eliminating any traces from the molding process. A dry fit of the main sub-assemblies helps you check fitment before the final application of glue.

Painting the body, mechanical parts, and interior helps highlight the model's different volumes. Using a suitable primer generally makes it easier to achieve a smooth, even finish. Decals should be applied to a clean, smooth surface; then a clear finish coat can be used to even out their appearance with the paint.
