1/35 scale, eighteen inch diameter, Moebius kit with custom display stand, UV (black light) interior and fusion core lighting, gearbox motorized radar, crew figures ceiling beams and hull panel/port detailing.

The second model will be built with legs deployed, landed, using the Moebius lighting kit with a color interior paint scheme.
