Overall Rating       Well worth getting.
Comments Fortunately my kit did not have the flash and bubbles that April's did. My kit had some small bubbles near the end of the nacelles, and the hangar deck, but nothing that is problematic. They don't even distort existing detail.

The profile on the primary hull is a better match than what we've seen in the ERTL offerings. Same goes for the secondary hull. The warp nacelles appear to have the correct length as well - another problem I've had with the ERTL kit.

I've begun placing pins in the nacelle pylons, close to where they attach to the body. This isn't necessary, the parts will fit together and support the structures fine on their own. I personally feel more confident with pinning such a small piece.

JT's decal set is definately worth getting for this model. There are so many details on it that will add to the overall appearance of the kit.
