Oh, I've got the entire series on my hard drive! I keep marvelling at the level of detail & thought put into it, that I was never able to fully appreciate as a kid. It truly is Gerry Anderson's finest project.
And about that fine Enterprise model of yours: Were you able to position the nacelles so that they're parallel with each other, and don't droop? That's the thing I always hated about any Federation starship model.

Quote:The model comes assembled, nacelles in perfect alignment! The paint job is the only issue IMO- too light in some parts & too dark on the windows, all easily taken care of by any decent modeler.

Hmmm, it doesn't look all that perfect in this pic: lookit the droopage on that port nacelle!
But I really had thought you'd built up that model from the AMT kit.

That photo really looks more like the AMT kit than the Diamond replica...
No, my nacelles are just right. The AMT kit is good, but not AS good IMO.

Never seen a single episode of UFO, but the model is pretty cool. Still, that price tag is a real punch in the face. For a model? Really? That's nuts.
I LOVE Firefly, but no way am I paying what QMX wants for their Serenity replica. Maybe if I hit the lottery, had my house paid off, kid's college paid for, etc, but even then I would wince at the price tag.

Makes me think of this news show that did a report about a guy who had every item you could lay your hands on dealing with the Simpsons. He had rooms dedicated to all things Simpson. Most items probably cost just a few dollars, but he had hundreds of Simpson artifacts. How his with put up with it astonishes me.
