Nice use of the series music.

You really made the PE pop, and that's been passing notorious on this kit.

The colors are a perfect match to the tv show, which is incredible all by its lonesome.

Always thought this bad boy would need some sort of cradle, like a seaplane of old for ground handling--something they always managed to skip over in the series.

Looks like yours came out better than mine.. ..  I had a terrible time with the extremely poor fit between the upper and lower hulls.  I bought the lighting kit, which is a great added effect to the kit, with flashing panels and a glowing floor area.  I am now pondering where I can put it, or maybe just send it to recycling.  It's just too big for my available spaces.  But I had fun building it!

Oh man,  I loved watching this show when I was a kid and this flying sub was my favorite.  This is a great build and all of the extras that you're using are making it even better.

Ohhh very nicely done and a great presentation! One of the truly iconic Scifi vehicles of all time IMHO.

Nice job, my old Aurora Flying Sub had many, many adventures in the backyard, pool and house.

How much bigger (physically) is this kit than the old Aurora one? Like twice the size?

Well, that's something. The "future" from my childhood is now Steampunk!

Looks like one 15" CRT in the whole shebang.

Thats a very pretty shape and the color does look good.

The shot with the glasses really helps the scale.
