Hi all, well she finally arrived!!! Funny story, it only took 2 days to get from Miami FL to Vancouver BC (THANK YOU USPS!!) .....and then 15 days to travel from Vancouver to Edmonton lmao. Oh Canada post...but thats a different discussion for a different forum lol. I am grateful it arrived with no damage. $350 Canadian, i wont lie, i was worried it would be crushed by the time i got it. Wish i could figure out how to upload pics into this post....just to show how nice the kit is!! I have a Tamiya 1/350 Enterpise (my second one) still in box, and i think the Intrepid, though smaller, has way more detail. She also comes with PE parts. With that, in my research while she made her long voyage to me, i found another PE kit for her. Tetra Models apparently makes a full PE kit for it. So i was like i need that!!! then i looked at the price....lol after $350 for the model im not spending another $200 for PE.....ill be saving that money for the deck equipment that the kit did not come with and extra aircraft to add to the small airwing. The kit only comes with 4xF8 4xA4 4xA1 4xUH2 & 2xE1B. But i found extra F8 and A4 from Larsenal. Anyways, hopefully i can figure out how to upload pics so i can show off this legend and the other very soon after!!
