Just picked this up! I have made two of these 1/1000 Enterprise models before as well as 2 of the in scale Klingon D7's and the Refit, but this comes with an in scale Botany Bay!
Cool! Did you ever notice in Star Wars 2 - when Anakin & Obiwan are talking with Palpatine in his office - and you can see traffic in the background - that what appears to be the Space Seed ship keeps appearing in one of the traffic lanes? Or am I just seeing things?

I know they snuck different ships into the background, the most famous being a YT freighter like the Falcon in Ep.2 or 3, but I am not sure about a Botany Bay.
I know in that office scene you can see the Enterprise. Never saw the Botany Bay.
Done! Actually, I cheated a bit and used my previously built 1/1000 Enterprise for this display as it came out really nice. I can build the other model later. I think I am going to paint that arm mounting the Botany Bay black...
That's cool! The funny thing about the Botany Bay is I have seen it so many times in just that classic profile shot showing the side that it's weird to see it overhead.
Looks great Bryan, looks like a Fun Model to Build.
AWESOME.
Yeah painting the arm black will look nice I think.
