The internal mechanism of this buildable P90 miniature is constructed entirely from plastic pieces, from the gears, axles, racks, and rigid structures, forming a system that simulates the mechanical functioning of a weapon, but in a completely interactive, educational, and fun way.
At the center of the model there is a set of motorized gears: the motor transfers rotation to a main axle, which in turn drives a small system of ratchets and internal arms responsible for continuous mechanical action.
This rotation creates the visual “firing effect”, where internal parts move to simulate the operating cycle without launching projectiles.
The “bolt” area and the internal body feature return mechanisms, using friction pieces and joints that allow certain elements to move forward and backward as the motor spins.
These movements are amplified by long axles and small secondary gears that distribute the motion to different parts of the structure.
This gives the model dynamism: some parts vibrate, others slightly retract, creating the sensation of realistic mechanical action, even though it is only a visual reproduction.
The removable magazine has its own locking system, using fastening pins, guide rails, and technical latches that simulate the insertion and release operation of a real magazine.
All of this is supported by a reinforced internal chassis that maintains gear alignment and prevents the motor’s torque from causing misalignment.
The result is a piece with a surprisingly complex interior, combining block engineering, mechanical transmission, and functional design, making the assembly process just as fascinating as watching the mechanism in action.
The History of the P90
The P90 was born in the late 1980s as a response to a major challenge: creating a compact, advanced, and extremely efficient weapon for special forces and security teams who needed high firepower in tight spaces.
Developed by the Belgian manufacturer FN Herstal, it was designed from scratch: not as an adaptation of older models, but as a futuristic weapon.
Its bullpup design, transparent top-mounted magazine, and rounded contours gave the P90 a unique identity that quickly made it a global icon.
Over time, its futuristic aesthetics crossed beyond the military world and conquered entertainment: movies, series, and video games turned the P90 into a true symbol of pop culture.
When you build this P90 miniature, you’re not just assembling a beautiful object: you’re building a piece of modern military engineering history, a weapon that redefined what a submachine gun could be.
That’s why the P90 isn’t just famous: it’s unforgettable.
