Pros & Cons
Pros
The decal sheet makes for a well detailed model. Minimal sanding and filling required. Impressed with the moveable warp nacelles. One minor gripe -the nacelle flaps r a spot of bother.
This newer artwork box is better than the older artwork boxed kit. The 2010 kit has crisp lines, minimal flash and few obvious sink marks. I have both versions now and can definitely confirm they are both the same kit from the same mold.

Really good size model and impressed with the moveable warp nacelles.
Just make sure you have a very good quality glue to put it together.
Price
Very good kit looks really good to make and a good price
If you wanna sell some kits bring the price down to what it used to be.
Shipping
Its really tedious as there are tons of widows on the top half of the ships hull, thankfully not many on the lower hull half.
Competitiveness
There r exactly the same kits but with extortionate price tag!

Unfortunately certain parts in the model were of poor quality leftover resin from moulding you will hath to sound off excess resin and repaint base model before starting not overly complicated but a bit annoying when you buy something you expect the item to be as displayed as seen

Addendum ok lets clear a few myths up about this kit
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Second one buyer said the decals are much better and less cartoony

They are not better they are exactly the same

Third the only difference between the older kit and the later kit is the box artwork and the instruction book which is actually much better as its printed totally in colour and the painting diagrams are also much clearer

But that is it same old kit but better instruction booklet and debatabley better box artwork

Ok so the entire worlds gone mad but thats no excuse to charge £99 quid for the old box version and nearly £30 quid for the new box version
