Model Car Kits
If you are looking for an immersive and rewarding hobby, there are few things comparable to building model car kits. At RCMA, we are also in love with this hobby which is why we strive to have the largest range of highly-detailed model car kits in Australia, so browse our collection until you find a model you love.
Highly Detailed Model Car Kits to Build and Paint
Our collection of model car kits has something for everyone - whether you prefer to build on-road model cars, SUVs and pickups, racing cars, dragsters, station wagons and minivans, military vehicles, or even model cars from comics, TV shows, and movies, you will find what you are looking for. All models are highly detailed scaled versions of their real-world counterparts and many kits are highly customisable, so you will have days of enjoyment painting and building these model cars.
New and Vintage Civilian Model Car Kits
Our selection of new and vintage model car kits offers something for every enthusiast, from modern muscle marvels to classic street rods. If you are looking for more complex model car kits to build and paint (and love Chevys), you can get the all-new Chevy Camaro SS with AMT's detailed kit, featuring striking new wheels, a custom rear spoiler, and pre-detailed windows and taillights. For a quick and easy build, Revell’s Mercedes-AMG GT R Build'n Race series lets you create your dream car with just ten components and a pull-back motor for fast rides.
On the other hand, experienced modellers and Chevy enthusiasts who prefer vintage cars will love the 2-in-1 kit for the 1960 Chevy Corvette, which includes options for both stock and street rod versions, complete with detailed engines and vintage-style packaging. For a touch of nostalgia, the Ford T vintage police car kit could be the perfect choice - it includes special accessories and a variety of decal graphics options. And this is just to list a few models. Our range of model car kits provides a diverse and exciting building experience for hobbyists of all ages.
Military Vehicles
In case you are more interested in military vehicles than civilian cars, you won't be disappointed. Our range of military vehicle model kits is perfect for hobbyists fascinated by rugged and versatile machines used in defence operations. You can build the Defender XD, a robust Land Rover variant known to the British Army as the Land Rover Wolf, or, for a U.S. Army classic, recreate the Ranger Special Operations Vehicle (RSOV), used by the 75th Ranger Regiment. These and the other models in the collection capture the functionality and detail of real military vehicles, offering a thrilling building experience for any military history buff.
Race Cars
If you prefer vehicles that are less robust but built purely for speed, you might want to take a look at our racing car model kits. You can assemble the RA272, the car that clinched victory in the 1965 Mexico Grand Prix, with a detailed depiction of its distinctive body lines and V12 engine. Or build the Lotus Type 79, the then-innovative ground-effect car that dominated the 1978 season. Whether you admire classic Grand Prix legends or revolutionary F1 designs, our racing car model kits offer an exhilarating building experience for every racing enthusiast.
For hobbyists who love speed so much that even racing cars are not enough, we have the best plastic model car kits of dragsters in Australia! AMT’s Digger Dragster could be the perfect gift for any drag racing enthusiast or model car builder or you can build the iconic MPC Don Garlits Swamp Rat 14 dragster driven by the legendary Don Garlits. Of course, these are just a few choices you can make - all of these kits provide an exhilarating and value-packed experience for drag racing fans, so get the one you like most.
SUVs, Pickups, Minivans
In case your interests lie in more practical vehicles, we have many model car kits of SUVs, pickups, and minivans in our collection. Build the 2021 Ford Bronco SUV with its detailed Sasquatch package, including 35-inch off-road tyres, beadlock-capable wheels, and high-clearance fender flares; the 1996 Chevy C3500 pickup, with its customisable options and detailed features perfect for beginners and serious builders alike.
For a vintage touch, assemble the 1978 Ford Courier minivan, a feature-packed kit with tinted windows, customising parts, and expanded decals. If you are into building model cars for everyday use, you won’t find a more engaging and rewarding experience than this!
Comic, TV Show, and Movie Car Kits
Stepping away from practicality, you can get comic, TV show, and movie model car kits to build and paint! For movie car enthusiasts, AMT’s Batmobile from the 1995 classic, Batman Forever, offers a fantastic project. This 1/25 scale kit includes a removable canopy, open or closed rear fin, cut-out panels, chrome wheels, tinted windows, and a detailed cockpit.
Nostalgia builders might want to recreate the classic Green Hornet TV hero car, with authentic details like front gas guns, rocket launchers, rear brooms, and a detailed interior, along with full-color water-slide decals and Green Hornet & Kato figures. These kits are perfect for both beginners and experienced modellers who love iconic vehicles from pop culture.
