Vehicle-Mounted Howitzer (Qiji 25001-1)

About this set

The KEEPPLEY 25001-1 vehicle-mounted howitzer is part of the Peace Heavy Armor series, with 236 pieces on the box and a 2/5 difficulty rating, so it sits at the easy end of the range. The build centers on a truck chassis carried by multiple wheels, a cab with clear windows, and a howitzer barrel mounted on the rear. Green and sand parts form the base, black trims the edges, and blue, yellow and red add small accents. The extras are generous: a soldier minifigure, a shovel, a trench, a blue flag and sandbags let you set up a small position right after the build. Start with the chassis and wheel assemblies so all the wheels sit level, then add the body and barrel; the barrel-to-chassis joint is the spot that needs the most care, and the clear cab windows are easiest to fit last to avoid fingerprints. At 236 pieces, a 6+ builder can finish it in two or three sittings. A good pick for anyone new to military vehicles who also wants minifigure-scale scene pieces.
