Enterprise NX-01 Refit...are all the kits SnapTite?
Posted by jhawk on Wednesday, October 6, 2021 8:11 PM

I am looking to buy a kit of the Star Trek Enterprise NX-01 Refit, but all I can find are SnapTite kits.  Did they make this mode in a non snaptite form?  I'd rather have a glue-together kit vs snaptite kit.  thanks in advance.

The NX has turned out to be my favorite Enterprise and I would love to find the refit to add it into my stash.  

I think at one point there was conversion set but it might have been only for the 1/1000 kit.  You may end up glueing that one together.  I have the 1/350th and a couple 1/1000th kits in my garage for next year.

What you might try is going through the listings at  Federation models, they may have something but no guarantee.

All of the 1/1000 scale NX-01's are technically snap-tite builds.  Yet you can still glue them as you build and they come out pretty solid.  Not toyish if that is what you are wondering.

Current build: 1/48 Monogram A-1H & AMT Jedi Starfighter.

 


Completed:  1/48 Monogram/Revell P-61B, 1/32 Hasegawa F6F-5, 1/48 Hasegawa F-16C, 1/48 Revell Mig-21PFM, 1/48 Revell/Monogram AH-64A, Revell/Monogram 1/48 F-14D, AMT 1/420 USS Defiant, AMT 1/650(?) USS Enterprise, 1/72 Bandai VF-1J, AMT 1/537 USS Reliant, Academy 1/35 M1-A1 Abrams, Academy 1/48 F-86F30, Linbergh's USS Gato

Therr are cetain upgrades you can get like translucent red bussards for the naceles and if so inclined the patterns for the hull plating.  Sometimes as a mask set and sometimes as decals.
