Large Scale Star Trek TOS Enterprise w/lights?

[rad1701]

That is very cool and I did know of the movie Enterprise coming out. But what is this ad for then (from recent Previews catalog)? Maybe it's an error still, it just caught my eye:

Um... perhaps that's not from Polar Lights.

I did a quick search of Monsters in Motion, and they use the SAME photo but call it the Polar Lights 11" model.

Perhaps the PREVIEWS listing is a confusion of the description of the Polar Lights 1/350 REFIT kit and the photo of the 1/1000 TOS kit.

PREVIEWS screws up photos all the time. When a vendor doesn't provide one, they just grab one from somewhere else, and sometimes ignorance of the product details results in boo boos.

I'm pretty sure it's some kind of a mistake....but I want a large scale TOS Original Enterprise so badly I was hoping it was true! My favorite Enterprise and series.

Any more updates on retail dates for the 1701 refit?

the 22 cutaway buils up very nicely and there is a TON of accurizing and electronic lighting parts available for it. Right now that is probably your best bet.

The 22" cutaway is the TOS version, not the refit TMP version.

Thinking of doing the cutaway model. Any links to where some of those accurizing parts can be found?

BTW for those still puzzling over when the Polar refit kit is coming, the site says October.

That's next month!

I'll breath easier when it does -- and when I have it in my hand!

the only good thing about it coming out later is that I have more time to brainwash my wife that having a 3ft model of the enterprise hanging over out bed wont degrade our sex life
