McLaren MCL39 Click System – Your 1:20 scale Formula 1 model
The McLaren MCL39 Click System brings the fascination of the pinnacle of motorsport directly to your desk. With this kit, you can experience modern racing dynamics, masterful aerodynamics, and true-to-the-original details up close without the need for tedious gluing or complicated painting. Assemble the precisely manufactured components step by step and create your own masterpiece in 1:20 scale in no time at all.
Fascination with motorsport: The McLaren MCL39 in detail
If you love the smell of burning rubber, the howl of modern turbo-hybrid engines, and gripping wheel-to-wheel duels, the McLaren MCL39 Click System is the perfect choice for you. This model kit reflects the engineering artistry of one of the most traditional and successful teams in Formula 1 history. The car's characteristic lines are impressive, featuring finely crafted contours that make the interaction of downforce, airflow, and grip visually tangible.
Constructed in a generous 1:20 scale, the model offers an outstanding level of detail while remaining compact enough to make a spectacular impression on any desk, shelf, or collector's display case. From the sophisticated front wing geometry and striking sidepods to the complex rear diffuser and modern Halo safety system, every aerodynamic element has been replicated with the utmost precision. You will receive a model that is immediately convincing in terms of authenticity and overall appearance, making motorsport enthusiasm tangible.
The unmistakable color scheme is a special visual highlight: the vibrant papaya livery combined with dynamic contrast elements provides that iconic McLaren look. Since the components are already molded in the correct colors, your car will shine in its true racing livery immediately after assembly – no paintbrushes, spray cans, or thinners required.
Key features: Ingenious plug-in technology meets absolute model fidelity
The heart of this kit is the innovative Click System, which guarantees a clean, frustration-free, yet demanding building experience. Forget smudged glue residue or unpleasant fumes: the individual components snap into each other securely and firmly via precisely calculated plug-in connections. This not only saves valuable preparation time but also reliably leads to a flawless result.
- Precise Click System: All components can be firmly assembled using precise guides and pins. Conventional model glue is not required, keeping the assembly clean and straightforward.
- Fully molded-in-color parts: No time-consuming painting work – the body and chassis parts already feature their authentic coloring, so the finished model shines in the luster of the racetrack.
- Free driver choice for your cockpit: The included sticker sheet gives you the freedom to personalize your model. Build your MCL39 either as number 4 belonging to Lando Norris or number 81 belonging to Oscar Piastri.
- Authentic tires and detailing: Scale-accurate slick tires, detailed rims, and intricately replicated rearview mirrors, antennas, and wing endplates underline the professional standards of this kit.
- High fit accuracy and stability: Despite the glue-free connection technology, the finished model impresses with its solid feel, making it easy to transport and display.
As a special extra, the kit includes a selection of high-quality stickers and classic decals. This allows you to decide exactly how you want to apply sponsor logos and racing numbers, depending on your personal taste and experience. Applying the markings completes the building process and gives your F1 racing car its final, race-ready look.

Frequently asked questions about the McLaren MCL39 Click System – Your 1:20 scale Formula 1 model
Do I need special tools or model glue for assembly?
No, you do not need model glue. All parts are manufactured in such a way that they lock firmly together via the precise Click System. To cleanly separate the parts from the sprue, a simple side cutter or hobby knife is recommended to keep the edges nice and smooth.
Do I have to paint the McLaren MCL39 after unpacking?
Painting is by no means necessary. The plastic parts are already molded in the appropriate original colors – including the characteristic papaya orange and dark contrast tones. The included stickers and decals take care of all further sponsor logos and racing details.
Can I decide which driver I want to represent during the build?
Yes, you have a free choice. The kit includes the appropriate racing numbers and markings for both main drivers: Lando Norris (No. 4) and Oscar Piastri (No. 81). You simply choose your personal favorite when applying the markings.
How stable is the finished model compared to glued kits?
The Click System has been specially developed for high fit accuracy and mechanical durability. Once snapped together, the connections are tight and secure, giving the model a surprisingly high level of structural rigidity so that it can be safely displayed in a cabinet.

For beginners, Revell models with skill level 1 or 2 are recommended. Level 1 includes simple plug-in kits without glue, while level 2 requires basic gluing work. These models have fewer components (usually 20-50 parts) and simple color schemes. Experienced model makers should only start at level 3, as this already requires detailed painting and precise gluing work.
The packaging colors show a basic painting for quick results. However, the construction instructions contain detailed color recommendations for authentic, true-to-scale replicas. Professional model makers use the instructions' extended color palette for more realistic results. This enables both beginners to create simple projects and experts to create detailed replicas.
Revell releases new models and new editions of classic kits every month. Around 60-80 new products are released every year, including airplanes, ships, cars and RC models. The list of new products is updated at the beginning of each month. Collectors and enthusiasts should check the Revell webshop regularly, as limited editions often sell out quickly.
Revell invests significantly in product development, precise injection molds and detailed construction instructions. Each model goes through extensive design processes, tool making and quality control according to the EN 71.5 standard. The higher costs result from licensed original artwork, multilingual instructions and the use of high-quality plastics that enable precise details.
You can obtain spare parts for Revell models from official customer service or authorized dealers. Many parts can be reordered individually, although an exact kit number is required. Alternatively, specialized model building communities offer exchanges. For older, no longer produced models, 3D printing services or aftermarket manufacturers can often help.
The basic equipment includes plastic glue, side cutters, files, basic paints (black, white, gray) and brushes of various sizes. Primer, clear coat and detail brushes are recommended for advanced projects. A cutting mat set and good lighting significantly improve the quality of work. Budget beginners can start well with around 50-80 euros.
Revell RC models are differentiated according to age groups. Ready-to-run models are suitable for ages 8 and up, while kit RC models require experience in model building. Adults benefit from expandable systems and tuning options. The skill level marking helps with selection - RC beginners should start with levels 1-2, even as adults.
The Revell range includes over 400 active models, which is challenging for small retailers in terms of inventory and finances. Specialist retailers tend to focus on popular categories or regional preferences. The official Revell web shop offers the full range, while local dealers often allow special orders. Remaining stocks of older models can often be found in specialized model making shops.
We accept product suggestions via the contact form on the website. Successful proposals take into account market potential, licensability and technical feasibility. Keep in mind that developing new models takes 12-24 months. Detailed suggestions with reference material have a higher chance of success, but due to the high volume, not all ideas can be implemented.
All Revell products comply with the European toy standard and are regularly tested for harmful substances. Safety instructions in the construction instructions are mandatory and particularly concern adhesives and paints. Models below skill level 3 are designed for children aged 10 and over, higher levels require supervision or are only recommended for children aged 14 and over. The CE marking confirms conformity.
