Uhhhhhh..... given the cost of these kits now on the secondary market since they are currently out of production, you may be waiting forever for me to join in. The one I built years ago when I was just getting back into the Hobby since the mid-80s is the only one I will have.Thank you Invar! Ok, I'll wait for you to grab another one and join in! I plan on lighting this one and that will be a first for me.
Ringed out alot of it from the back first, Mr. edge. Then just X-Acto pointed it from the top after it was thinner from the back.How did you remove the domes? Very clean work.
Yikes, yes they have gone up in price. Glad I picked up 3 when they first came out!
Yes sir, that's certainly a chunk! It's also kinda ridiculous. This was only $35 plus $10 shipping when this came out. I bought 2 at the same time from the seller, so that $10 was for both. Bought 'em off ebay at the time. Ok, I'll cut you some slack for $329. I would only buy one if'n I was you. Don't get crazy.No listings at all on Amazon. $329 plus $25 shipping on Ebay.
Tends to happen to stuff out of production that there is still interest in.
But for that price I would rather get a Bandai PG Falcon.
No worries, you got it right, I am a guyEDIT: Once again, Analyzer, if you're a Ma'am, I apologize.
I have one of these that I started, I was trying to redo the bridge with Tony RR/308 bits bridge from shapeways
but after lookin at a bunch of ref kind of stalled. It seems like there are so many differences you almost have to scrap the whole area and do it from scratch. I was amazed at how much was actually wrong with it
I was expecting a bit more of an out of the box build
Yeah, I have that one in my stash. I got it for free from someone who never built itI will just say that despite the 'flaws', the Moebius kit is LIGHT YEARS ahead of and better detailed than the old Monogram kit was that I built in 1980. That kit put the old MPC Falcon to shame in terms of how plain, wrong and stupid it was. But.... it's all there was back then if you wanted a model of the ship from the TV show.

Why, Thank you!Looking forward to your progress Eagle-1... meanwhile here's where I am with my restauration/upgrade of an old Monogram Battlestar Galactica model :
Eventhough it's not as accurate as the Moebius kit, which is beyond my reach now, ... it too puts a smile on my face when looking at this magnificent spaceship
