Metal Earth - Space Shuttle Launch Kit

[TooOld]

I started this the day after Christmas and over the next ten days it took about 14 hours to finish . I built a couple of their planes a few years ago but they were nothing like this , they only had a dozen or so parts . This kit had 80 pieces !
The instructions were a challenge and shaping the curved parts takes lots of patience , but it was worth the effort and very satisfying to eventually finish the model . I think everybody should try at least one of the Metal Earth kits , you might enjoy it ! I take lots of photos , hope you like it .

Wow! I've passed by them in the store but never looked close at them. Excellent build up. I'll most likely try one now. Paul

Thanks Paul ! A lot of the earlier ones were kind of flat and cheap looking but their new stuff is pretty cool .
