A few minor fit issues, but an impressive finished model
It is true what a few people have mentioned about a few fit issues, but none of them were of any significant problem. If you are after an absolutely perfect recreation you may require a little filler, but I managed perfectly well without any. The small lunar lander that sits in the payload fairing (but is removable) is a little delicate.It is interesting to see from the markings from the mounds that much of this kit was cast in 1968, meaning it was actually designed before mankind had set foot on the moon, and most of it remains unchanged! A few parts have clearly been retooled, and there were no fit issues on these.The paint scheme is interesting, although not the one used on the Saturn V rockets that flew manned missions to the moon. The design featured in this kit was changed for the manned missions to reduce the amount of surface area painted black, as it was discovered that the black paint was overheating the fuel tanks whilst the rocket waited in the sun. If you want to recreate an manned Saturn V, you can find photographs online.I got this kit on a marketplace deal for less that £15 as it didn't have a box, which was a steal. The kit itself was absolutely fine. Highly recommended

Fantastic model for children of ALL ages!
Bought this for my 10 year nephew as a Christmas present and I ended up building it with him and his father as a Sunday afternoon get together. I think we were all fulfilling a need here, (we built it as children ourselves- only not too well!) A chance to get it RIGHT (mostly). And so perfectly timed to coincide with the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo Moon landing. Spent just as much money again on craft knives, masking tape, paint spray cans (painted the whole thing black, then masked off the areas to stay black and sprayed it all white. It worked a treat!) Not the easiest model to make for a child but it's a rites of passage for a boy. The finished model looks awesome and has pride of place in his bedroom. I'll still steal a glance at it myself when I'm round there. It's what model making should be. Bringing family together and achieving something you're proud of.

absolutely fantastic. Loved every minute building this
I absolutely loved building this model. So much so I have just bought the space shuttle version as well. Some parts can be very very fiddly but if you have patience you will get there. I find the easiest way to do this model was to do most of the painting first. Look ahead a few steps to find out what needs painted there for when it comes to gluing it will have had time to dry. Some of the paints and the glue don't mix well. I took my time with this model made sure all the parts fitted before gluing and some parts needed filed as well. This model was worth every single penny and can't wait to build the space shuttle
