I have mentioned many times on the site that I am obsessed with building models, but lack the skill to actually do a good job at it. Just last week I was in a local store and saw a model of the original Enterprise for sale and thought I should buy that. Well I went back this week to pick it up and they were sold out. Grrrrr! They say more will come in next month, so I will be back. If I can do a good job on it, I would like to move onto other Trek models, like this classic K-7 Space Station that Hake’s is selling. I know I shouldn’t buy these things and open them after all these years, but it is hard to resist. I want to see this thing built…
Look at it:
According to Hakes:
8.5x10x3.5” deep sealed boxed contains complete parts for AMT model. The last of AMT’s Star Trek models based on the original series, this kit was released and ©1976 Paramount Pictures Corp. Model recreates the K-7 Space Station that was the primary setting for the classic Star Trek episode “The Trouble With Tribbles.” Along with the parts for the Space Station, a miniature U.S.S. Enterprise pace ship is included. Slightest warp to box due to tightness of shrinkwrap, but N. Mint with unused, Mint contents.
So if you love Trek models and want to add a very cool one to your collection, pick yours up today.
I loved the old Star Trek model kits. I remember building a few of them, but the Enterprise Bridge was my favorite.
