The Revell Star Trek USS Enterprise NCC-1701 Into Darkness Model Kit in 1/500 scale from the plastic Star Trek models range accurately recreates the starship from the Star Trek Into Darkness 2013 science fiction movie. The completed model measures 58.8 cm long.
This plastic model kit requires paint and glue to complete. Revell Colours Required: 5, 47, 55, 56, 76, 99, 301, 302, 371, 752.
In 2009 the 11th Star Trek Movie arrived in cinemas. So much from the past has changed in the course of its journey through time that a new time-line has been created, and thus events from films from the 60's and later are no longer relevant. The new film called "Into Darkness" continues the plot from the 11th film. The main protagonists in the film, which is set around the year 2255 are, as usual, the young James T. Kirk and Mr Spock. Supporting characters, especially Uhura and Chekov, play a much larger part in this film. Model Features:
Newly developed construction kit Large scale, two-piece Saucer Section Separate command bridge Multi-part deflector and sensor Large-scale, two-piece secondary hull Multi-part nacelles with separate pylons Many transparent parts, including Bussard collectors and navigation lights Display stand Kit suitable for the addition of lighting (equipment not included) Detailed instructions with tips for painting Extensive set of decals for the Enterprise
Manufacturer: Revell Model: 04882 Star Trek USS Enterprise NCC-1701 Into Darkness Model Kit Scale: 1/500

This kit is awesome. The detail is excellent with windows in the saucer and main hull already put out so lighting it is simple and its huge. Regretfully though there is no Aztec decals for the hull or saucer which is a shame but apparently 1:350 scale after market Aztec deals can be altered to fit until someone else makes some for it. Well worth the money and only really available in Europe so get them while you can and be the envy of all sci-fi modelers in the US.

The model had great detail.It was nice to see a kit like this in this scale good size nice decals,would have been nice to see Aztec markings but I'm sure someone will come out with them soon,also the revell box has a lid instead of the opening sides.Very nice kit.

I have not begun to assemble this model yet but initial impressions are very good. Crisp clear moldings with plenty of clear parts (for lighting) and a good decal sheet. The instructions are very clear with the "aztec" markings shown on the relevant parts. Only down side which I have noted is the "impulse engines" part which should really be molded in clear, but this really is nit-picking. I am quite looking forward to building and lighting this model.

I have yet to paint and build this model, but am very happy with the product. It seems well put together, and the assembly and paint instructions are very clear and detailed. I'm excited about painting and putting this model together, and can't wait to see how it turns out. I'm sure it'll make an excellent addition to my model collection of the USS Enterprise.

Weather or not you like the new design, this is an excellent model with crisp details. For those who like to light their kits, the internal structure was designed to allow for lighting. This kit isn't available in North America and I'm glad I found Wonderland. Shipment was relatively quick.

Awesome model, came quickly and I got it for a great price as it's usually about £60 -£80 elsewhere. Surprisingly big but comes with very detailed instructions. Secondary hull is quite thin which seems a bit worrying but hopefully when glued together with contact cement should hold nicely. Great model, I really recommend it.
