Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I recently bought this model from the Toys R Us close to my house. I was excited because the box was pretty big, so I assumed that the model itself would be big.
but...That's not really the case.
The model is a pretty decent size (I think around 19 inches, but I'm not sure). It's about the same size as the standard Ertl Star Trek models. Also, the description says that it has over 75 pieces, which is NOT true.
My biggest complaint is the building process with this model. It seems like they just wanted to boast more pieces, instead of making it more "user friendly". Some of the parts must be glued, then held together for a period of time. And the pieces that you have to hold (or temporarily tape, I suppose) are either long pieces, or really thin pieces.
This model is definately cool, but it really doesn't seem like it's targeted at younger or inexperienced modelers. One big advantage is that it's molded in a a pretty good grey plastic, so younger modelers who don't want to paint it could leave it, and still have it look nice. I also comes with glue, paint and a brush, so that's a nice addition for the aforementioned group.
If you have the patience for it, I'd definately recommend it.
