My most favourite space ship if all time. This one looks great and i never knew it existed in this size. Especiaaly like the individual struts which in the bandai,imai, airfix or whoever still has that mould were solid infills. Think i will have to see if i can track one of these down. Hope you are enjoying your build of this one Happy Modelling

This is a cool ship, great to see it being built.
I believe there is a new version coming out soon?

This looks a fantastic kit! I have a couple of the old Airfix ones (mostly in bits) and I can still remember the laborious job of drilling and filing out the solid moulded struts as Birdaj2 mentioned! Might be worth a rebuild in the future with aluminium tubing instead! The thing I love about Gerry Anderson designs is identifying the various kit parts which went in to form the details - there's definately two halves of a lunar module back by the engine nozzles! Really looking forward to seeing this beauty come together! Robin.

If I remember rightly, the 44 inch is the same scale as the original version they used for filming?
