1/350 HSM Astute Submarine

1/350 HSM Astute Submarine Review



The Astute class submarine is the latest submarine in the British Navy, as of 2007. This huge submarine has an appearance similar to a whale, and is nuclear-powered, not requiring a single refueling over its 25 year lifetime. It is not unique in this regard, though. The Astute class submarine is built by BAE Systems at the city of Barrow-in-Furness, on the central west coast of Britain. The submarines will cost about .4 billion US Dollars (USD) each. The Astute class consists of attack submarines, in contrast to ballistic missile submarines such as the Vanguard class. Kit features a 2-piece full hull with engraved surface features, separate planes, display stand, photo-etch parts (hull fittings, screw blades and nameplate), plus a full array of periscopes, comms masts and snorkel. Color painting reference displaying port and starboard profiles, overhead plan, bow and stern views - decals for hull markings.

Alpha Centauri UFO's Kit

Alpha Centauri UFO's Kit Review



Alpha Centauri UFO's Kit Dispatched from their mother ships, these Short Range UFO's piloted by strange alien beings explore vast star systems looking for new planets and resources to consume. Reporting back on all they find, they are the ideal craft to scout low-tech planets such as our own. Virtually invisible to radar, sonar, and microwave scanning, they are undetectable by our primitive technology. With the inability to travel the full 1.34 parsecs from Alpha Centauri to our solar system, they require long range transport from their larger ships to destinations deemed viable for resources. Dispatched in small squadrons, they can quickly reach any destination in our solar system, and maybe sample a few cattle along the way! Kit Includes: Pieces to build two UFO's with 2 alien pilots. Molded in grey plastic. Includes landing gear and closed hatch panel for in-flight versions.
