In this kit "The Motion Picture" set it comes with the Enterprise Refit, The USS Reliant and the Klingon Ka'Tinga battlecruiser
The box for this kit is nicely detailed with glossy photos of the kits all over the box along with a little history and extra photos on the back of the box for references
First up the Enterprise Refit (10 Parts)
You'll notice that the saucer has no grid lines whatsoever but no need to worry. The decals will take care of that
Next up is the USS Reliant (11 Parts)
The Klingon Ka'Tinga (9 Parts)
I just love the detail to the hull and main bride on this kit.
Next the Decals
The instructions are a simple one page tri-fold sheet. Construction on one side and paint and decals on the flip side
In the end I believe these kits were were designed with beginner modelers in mind but they can be a challenge even for seasoned builders due to the decals. I would recommend that if you decided to try any of these kits that you have plenty of decal solution on hand. With a little care and persistence they can come out really nice. The other great think about these kits is they are small enough to be built into dioramas where as it would be difficult to do in the larger scales. The cost of this kit was just under $20 at Hobby Lobby which I think is a good price for thee kits but if you add the 40% coupon like I did it rings up at around $12. Now thats a deal.
The Pro's
The decals are exquisite
The scale allows for multiple builds and Dio opportunities.
The Cons
As exquisite as the decals are they can be a pain to work with.
The kits do NOT come with any stands
Thanks for taking the time to read this review and I hope it will encourage you to give them a try.
