I just bought that sucker this morning and let me tell you I can't wait to start working on it tonight.

The detail on it is incredible. The only thing I'm a bit disappointed with is that it looks pretty small in the box (original 1701-A saucer section from AMT was a lot bigger.

Paid $143.00 Cdn tax included. Original price was $125.00 witrhout tax. Maybe I got screwed or not, but It will be the best ST item I ever bought. SFC included.

Looking forward to bying the Enterprise-E this winter. Hopefully they will make an Excelsior class. And the original tv series.

Yeah, it's a sweet looking model, but am I alone in being disappointed in it's being pre-painted and detailed? I kind of like to do that stuff myself.

Well I'm not.

I want a collection of all Enterprise model lighted and everything but I'm not good enough with painting and such. So for me this is the package.

Hopefully will have more to come.

You may have payed a bit much:

Add shipping on top of that for your total, but hey you supported
the local economy.

Thanks,

e-hobbies has the same model for sale at $59.99 (USD) before shipping. I preordered mine from there for $49.99 (USD) which still saves me $20 (USD) if I bought it from HLJ

I built this kit in less than 3 hours and looks like a 3 weeks job. In referrence to the piant scheme, it well worth the money as it is correct. Very high detail and paint work. Be carefull though final assembly of the secondary section with all the electronics was very much a pain in my "A". Looks great though (hope they do a scimitar)
