Very nice. Is this a new kit or an oldie? I like it if for no other reason than it's not the same old thing.

Thanks. The kit came out a few years ago, it was a new tool.

Even though it was released a few years ago, it was a beautiful kit, and I believe was the start of releases with some new molding technology. It was by far the best SoSL kit I am aware of.  Even includes a pretty nice Lindberg figure you can pose standing beside the model.

I agree with Don,  It's really a shame you can't see much of the interior, as they did a pretty good job there, too.  With a little scratch-building, the insides can look really nice, but alas, you'd have to light it, and keep a hand lens nearby.  

Nice work!
