OK - so let me ask since this thread was started. I have a boxed K-7 station and I would like to start building it. Now the problem I have is this! The kit is missing one of it's three domes. Does anyone happen to have an extra or an old kit I could get without having to wait until Round 2 gets them to us? :freak: Plus I just don't want to buy a full kit just to replace this small part. Just thought I'd ask!:drunk:

Happy Aurora Trails!

If he means one of the transparent cone-like structures, they're molded in clear styrene with fine surface detail. I think duplicating that part would be beyond the capabilities of the average modeler, unless you happen to have your own injection-molding machine in the basement.

I'd like to know if there are more decals included than what the illustration seems to show--isn't there a large K-7 for the main structure? Regardless of the kit's inaccuracies (and there's no way I'm displaying it with that horrendous little Enterprise) you can get it at least a bit closer to what's seen on screen with the right paint job and decals.

Actually it is visible in those links- it is just not that obvious.
*sigh*
when bond writes "main structure" and "than what the illustration seems to show" he's not referring to the K7 on the cone which the aforementioned illustration and the links obviously show but the saucer where there's clearly only "federation blah, blah, blah" on the links but not on the illustration

ya, I know that. I'm saying the release dates are a little un-specific. Probably due to one of the reasons listed before.

BUT, the mk.II Viper should have already hit the shelves by now given Moebius' assertion that it was to be released Jan '10 and here it's the end of Feb.

I assume you've all seen, or remember "The IDIC Page". They had some great shots of Greg Jein's station model, made for the DS-9 series. In know the IDIC site is gone now, but the WayBack Machine, still has it in the archive.

Also, dig around on the Drex Files. Doug Drexler has some wonderful images.

OK - well I'm almost finished my Vulcan Shuttle! ;) Just got the Enterprise 1000. So I'm going to work on that one and also my K-7. Now do I put K-7 on the main cone like it is in the picture? Just wondering!:freak: I also wonder how different will the new Round 2 be from my original?:confused:
