Hasegawa supplies crisply molded components that match the Beetle's curves at 1/24 scale. Builders will find clear interior pieces and separate trim parts that reward careful assembly and paintwork, with decal markings to recreate the Mooneyes graphics accurately.

Showcase and shelf appeal

Finished, the model stands out on a shelf or in a display case thanks to its compact footprint and vivid decal artwork. It makes a neat companion to other street rod or classic car builds in a collection.
