Being a fan of Pre-Classic Space, I had to buy one of these guys for myself. It just arrived today, and I ripped into the package like an eager little kid on Christmas. I was not disappointed. The kit comes in a nice little tupperware container sporting some nifty logos and images. But of course, it’s what’s inside the box that counts.

The kit comes with all the parts necessary to build the ship, a mini cd with easy-to-use instructions (and bonus PCS images), a certificate of authenticity, and a SciBrick minifig.

The build time for the model isn’t very long, since it is a relatively small craft. It’s more complex than it appears, though, and contains some nifty construction and detailing. The completed model is simply beautiful, and the swooshability is unbelievable.

Overall a great model and package, a sweet addition to any collection.

When moderated, click here to check it out a gallery of images I’ve uploaded of the kit, as well as a couple pics with my T.R.A.V.

Ryan-

Thanks for the review! Great to know things have taken off for the PCS production lines. I plan on ordering a S.L.A.M. and by doing so I hope to contribute to the revenue of future PCS sets.

And speaking of PCS, i still have to post the N.A.M.E.D. (which some of you might recall from BFest ‘03 gulp), as well as a semi-complementary Eastern Block ship that has been around almost as long gulp. Ahh, and for those who of you are into the civilian market, keep your eyes focused around these hurr parts. Okay, sorry, STL jargon slippin in.

ciao
