Polar Lights / Round 2 1:1000 U.S.S. Enterprise Refit

Hi, Everyone!

After being continuously available since it's original release in 2009, the Polar Lights / Round 2 1:1000 U.S.S. Enterprise refit kit (kit number POL820) will finally undergo a bit of a refresh (kit number POL974)!

  • New box art in order to conform to CBS' Star Trek merchandising guidelines
  • Updated decal set with battle damage images to reflect its new Wrath of Khan tie in
  • $31.95 U.S.D. MSRP
  • Scheduled to ship during early-2020

No other details have been announced, although there is the possibility (probability?) that the extensive set of aztec decals that were generously included with the original 2009 release may now be broken out of the kit and sold separately.  Evidence pointing to this is the announcement of an upcoming Round 2 1:1000 U.S.S. Enterprise and U.S.S. Reliant aztec decals combo set (product number MKA040) that will have an MSRP of $24.99 U.S.D..

Check out the new box top artwork!

Stay tuned...
