Following up on their first Star Trek Kelvin Timeline model from earlier this year — Star Trek Beyond’s featured starship Franklin — Moebius Models returns with a new addition to its starship fleet, the USS Kelvin from the first film in the new series.
This 11″, 1/1000-scale model of George Kirk’s ill-fated starship comes as a 58-part kit for hobbyists to assemble, paint, and decal to bring the styrene parts to the on-screen appearance of this ship.
When assembled, the Kelvin is mounted on an included faux-dedication plaque featuring the ship’s registry information.
Here’s the full announcement from Moebius Models:
Moebius Models is proud to announce the second release in an all-new series of ‘Star Trek’ model kits based on the new ‘Star Trek’ movies.
The fan-favorite U.S.S. Kelvin, from the opening sequence of ‘Star Trek’ (2009), is recreated as a precision-tooled, styrene kit. Measuring 11 inches long and 7 inches wide, the U.S.S. Kelvin model kit is based on actual digital visual effects files.
This skill-level 3 kit includes clear engine details and deflector dish, as well as a Starfleet registry plaque display base. The kit also includes decals and a full-color instruction booklet, including detailed painting tips.
Packaging features box art by noted ‘Star Trek’ production illustrator, John Eaves. (Kit requires paint and cement — sold separately.)
The USS Kelvin model kit is available for preorder now with an MSRP of $59.99, and is projected to ship in the last quarter of 2018.
