Hey everyone, I have received my Lufthansa 747 50th 1/200 Hogan model.

I have some Hogan 747 landing I want to insert into the plane, but my problem is there are these things that is blocking the landing gear slots....

How could I get rid of those and insert my landing gear?

Thanks so much in advance!

You have to find some tool which with you can open the landing gear covers. Maybe a little nail or nail scissors, anyway a very small tool. But be careful that you don't scratch the model, this could happen very quickly.

X Acto blades, razor blade, cutter blade or the tools used by dentists ...

Do I just try and get rid of the little things? Or do I have to take my time and not to damage the little things...I wasn't planning on taking to much care trying to remove them...like is there even any use for them after I take them off?

Those are the landing gear doors in CLOSED position, so if you chew them up now, you won't want to put on a set of futzed up gear doors on the day you MAY wish to display that model with its gear up.
