About this deal

Quite a bit of excess flash is formed around most parts that will need to be cleaned up and removed to ensure the best fit possible. As you’d expect with a project like this it’s mostly lots of solar panels and capsules that all join together in a complex assembly to create the complete ISS. Se light side of the Force: it is possible to choose between the X-Wing of the rebel army or the Millennium Falcon of Han Solo. Basically, if you are into 1.144 scale modelling, then this kit is worth a look. There will never be a huge choice of Boeing 747 or its derivatives like the SCA available at any point so this one looks like it could prove popular. If you’re prepared to spend some time being patient with your prep and spray work you can get good results from these older-tooled kits.

The Revell instructions follow their usual exploded stages format. Location of parts is clear but colour paint coding is for Revell paints only. However, the colour names are provided and this will help you to match your own choice of paints. This is a basic model and so should present little difficulty in working out where all the parts are located, even for inexperienced modellers. The components feature raised panel lines on the fuselage and this may not impress all of you, and detail as you’d expect with an older moulding is not as fine as, say, the newer kits from this manufacturer. Recessed panel lined are moulded into the wings and tailplane (and Shuttle). The recessed panels are a bit deep to say the least, but maybe not too bad. The type is certainly impressive as you can see from the video at the start of this review, so this project is all going to be about fine preparation and that finished paint job – immaculate! As a transportation agency connecting the Earth and the universe, the space shuttle which the American NASA (Aerospace Authority) started development in 1972. In 1981, a total of 135 launches were carried out from the successful launch of Unit 1 Colombia for the first launch to the retirement in 2011, including various experiments in the installed space lab (space laboratory), multipurpose replenishment He contributed to space development by performing various missions such as construction of the International Space Station (ISS) using modules, emission of space telescope and satellites, etc. The Space Shuttle is probably one of the most recognised air and space vehicles on this planet, so I won't go into raptures over its proud history, or the two tragic losses of ships and crew during its long and illustrious career. This year marks the 40th Anniversary of the first flight of the first shuttle, the eventually ill-fated Colombia, on 12th April 1981, so it's not surprising to see that Revell have rereleased their large-scale kit again. The Revell star wars model is the most fashionable when it comes to the brand's spaceship models. This achievement recalls the unprecedented moments of the world-famous saga. Thus, it is possible to relive Star Wars and its various episodes through the replicas faithful to revell's originals.

Scale : 1:144
The 1:144 scale is mainly used for large aircraft models (airliners, bombers, etc.). A plane in the 1:144 scale is 144 times smaller than the actual aircraft. For example, if the plane is 60 m long, then the model will measure 1 foot and 5 inches / 41.66 cm in length (6000/144 = 41.66).

The ISS serves as a microgravity and space environment research laboratory in which crew members conduct experiments in biology, human biology, physics, astronomy, meteorology and other fields. The station is suited for the testing of spacecraft systems and equipment required for missions to the Moon and Mars. The ISS maintains an orbit with an altitude of between 330 and 435 km (205 and 270 mi) by means of re-boost manoeuvres using the engines of the Zvezda module or visiting spacecraft. It completes 15.54 orbits per day.

The bay doors have slightly chunky toy-like hinges, and separate parts to represent the solar panels that provide the vehicle with electric power while it is in space. The two doors are clipped in place using the flexibility of the plastic, and they can be left loose if you wish, leaving an antenna at full-width across the bay. If you wish to close the doors, that part should be cut down to 65mm to ensure it doesn’t foul the closure. Another figure in a space suit making a wide, expansive gesture with their left hand is included to be placed anywhere you like, really. There are two mouldings of this legendary space craft in this scale, and this one has some extra detail in the shape of raised lines of insulation tiles on the underside and the large "blankets" on the upper surfaces of the big delta wings. Additional detail is present on the opening bay doors, flying (gliding?) surfaces, Reaction Control System (RCS) housings and the rear thruster bells. Raised detail is also present on the rear bulkhead onto which the main engine bells attach, which is a welcome addition, as these looked very blank on the other tooling I have in my stash.In approach and landing test flights conducted in 1977, a test shuttle was released from an SCA during flight and glided to a landing under its own control The Revell Kit…
