1/1 H1900-198 Revell Walt Disney's Perri Squirrel (From the Movie)
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG++
This 1957 "S" kit was the first of Revell's very limited line of animals. Perri was the real squirrel who starred in the Disney full length 'True Life Fantasy Film' named for the animal. The original inspiration for the film came from a book by Felix Salten, the author Bambi. It took Disney cameramen over three years to film Perri in her natural home in the heart of a western mountain wilderness. Without interrupting or disturbing the wild free state, they recorded the thrill and drama of real life in the forest. The film was popular and seen by millions. The model is a life sized representation of Perri, made directly from film stills. The kit features dark brown body parts, clear green-tinted eyes, whisker material, the correct "Revell" marked paint brush, flocking in three realistic colors, a flock funnel and bottle, and a glass bottle of Revell "S" cement that is still good! The kit has not been started and is complete with all parts, flock tools and cement. However, the eyes have been cut from the instructions (these are placed on the inside of the green tinted lenses). These could be easily made.
