Kit's are not what they used to be an you can no longer get away with a tube of polystyrene cement a paint brush and a few cans of humbrol. Photoetch for fine detail seems to be the way to go and after a couple of Airfix and Revell kits I am now on my third and proper 'adult kit' a Trumpeter Type 45 destroyer that comes with the obligatory photoetch. After my first attempt with no dedicated tools apart from a scalpel, it became apparent that photoetch is tricky so I very quickly upgraded, first to these scissors which are excellent - sharp, precise and well made. They will not cut completely hard up against the sprue and then the really tricky bit is the need to clean off the part but you are not left with too much residue. To that end I have just ordered some Tamiya photoetch pliers as I have concluded that for very tiny pieces tweezers will not do. The pliers will also come in handy for bending which is their main purpose. Many people have said that Tamiya are expensive and they are. On the upside their kit is well made and should last you forever. Everything from paint to tape and tools is a quality product. Review: Surprisingly good. - Excellent pair of strong, sharp and nicely manufactured scissors. I confess the idea of using scissors rather than side cutters for photo etched pieces would never have occurred to me. I've never considered scissors to be strong enough to cope. Well, Tamiya have proven me wrong there. These are ideal. The small tip on these allows you to get nice and close to the item you wish to cut, and with a little bit of force you have a clean cut with only a little extra work to take off the burr. While I won't be putting my side cutters out to pasture, these are an excellent alternative and perfect for the smaller level photo etched parts available with Tamiya and similar manufacturers' model kits. ## Features - For photo-etched parts - Number of packs: 1 - Package weight: 30 g - Quality product ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000E7ONR0 | | Best Sellers Rank | 153,042 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) 373 in Aircraft Model Building Kits 1,965 in Model Building Accessories, Hardware & Tools | | Blade Edge | Straight | | Blade Material | Stainless Steel | | Brand | Tamiya | | Colour | Multicoloured | | Country of Origin | Japan | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (335) | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 1 Years | | Finish | Painted | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04950344062195, 04950344740680 | | Handle Material | Stainless Steel | | Included Components | Contents: 1 item | | Is the Product Left or Right Handed? | Ambidextrous | | Item Dimensions L x W | 14L x 5.1W centimetres | | Item Type Name | hobby model airplane kits | | Item Weight | 32 g | | Manufacturer | Tamiya | | Material | Plastic | | Model Number | 300074068 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | 74068 | | Point Style | Durable | | Product Style | Classic | | UPC | 795864835669 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Blade material:** Stainless Steel - **Brand:** Tamiya - **Colour:** Multicoloured - **Material:** Plastic - **Product dimensions:** 14L x 5.1W centimetres ## Images ![300074068 TAM74068 Hobby Model Airplane Kits, Multi-Colour - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91PgYJEyLgL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice tool *by D***G on 30 November 2020* I have just got back into modelling after many many years.

Excellent quality *by R***S on 7 November 2019* Bought these as I have started using increasing amounts of photo etch parts on my models and wasn't satisfied with the results attempting to cut the parts with a blade and filing them afterwards. Became very tedious very quickly. These scissors changed all that. The high quality, extremely sharp blades (mind your fingers!) are fine enough to cut the parts very close to the sprue meaning only a small amount of filing is left to leave the parts perfect. Also, because they cut so easily there is minimal distortion to the parts and less risk of small parts pinging off and being lost in the carpet! ( We all know that feeling) All in all, though these aren't exactly cheap for scissors, they are worth every penny. A must have if you use photo etched parts! ## Frequently Bought Together - Tamiya 300074068 Modeling Scissors (for Photo-Etched Parts - TAMIYA America, Inc Bending Pliers-Photo Etched Parts, TAM74067 - TAMIYA America, Inc Mini Bending Pliers for PE Part, TAM74084 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/53487545-300074068-tam74068-hobby-model-airplane-kits-multi-colour](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/53487545-300074068-tam74068-hobby-model-airplane-kits-multi-colour) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-06-25*
