Title: Polar Light 1/1000 Refit Enterprise on the way!
Post by: Bryancd on September 18, 2009, 04:55:41 PM
Very psyched for this little kit. I love 1/1000 scale. I ahve built all three of the other PL 1/1000, this will be a nice addition. (Yes, I'm naked....again..)

Cool Bryan - but I'm convinced you do these models just to show some beefcake on the forum!  ;)

The classic D-9 is my favorite

Just be careful where you drip the glue Bryan. Seriously though, that looks like fun. Maybe when/if I have some spare time this winter I could give one of those kits a try.

The kit looks nice. There's a resin refit already available in 1/1000, but the PL one will be MUCH more affordable.  Now, if someone would only do a resculpt of the 1/2500 refit that comes with the AMT 3-pack. The current one is detailed about as sharply as a stick of butter.

Yeah! Although I guess it depends on your definition of normal. He was dressed pretty sharply in the Xmas photos that were posted a while back.

Oh, I'm glad you bumped this! I am right now working on the new Polar Lights 1/1000 Refit Enterprise! It's identical to the massive 1/350 kit, just smaller. I'll post some pics. :)

Make sure to only buy and use Testor's paint and glue.  ;)

Like what colors?  You have a direct line to the source now.  New product division - Testor Corp!  I'll call the new line of paints the TSF line or the BCD line.  ;)

Nice!  :thumbsup
I'll get some pics of the kit, it's really nice and the decals are great!

Keep in mind that Testor's actually also owns and makes these paint lines too:  Model Master, Pollyscale, Floquil, Pactra, etc.  Many in an acrylic, waterbase version too now.  Eco-friendly!
