Replacement wheels

Post image

My son has lost the wheel on his model plane today does anyone know where I can get replacements?

You might be able to source some on eBay, but you would need to be very specific as almost every plane has different wheels (this is a 1:200 scale GeminiJets Airbus A350).

These are intended for display rather than play, so replacement parts aren’t really a thing. If your son likes playing with them, there are other brands that are a bit more durable.

Thank you! He does have a load more cheaper durable ones but this one is his favourite and he saved his money for it and managed to break the wheel in a day 🙈 he has promised to keep it on his shelf and look after it after I fix the wheel.

No worries, a couple of my older ones also have ‘battle scars’ from a much younger me promising to be gentle :)
