Comments:
|
The resin parts are molded with good detail and very few pinholes but
some flash. Many extra parts are included to model the capsule in
various stages of flight. For some reason, however, there are deep
scribings on the exterior of the adaptor sections... The photoetched
parts represent the control panels in the cockpit. Parts are also
included for a display trailer. The instruction book contains
exploded views of each step, with no text and no way to identify the
parts except by shape. A copy of the pre-Gemini program NASA Facts
booklet is also included as a 'spacecraft history.' The decals are
waterslide and include the US Flags, UNITED STATES letters in white
and two stars-and-bars (for whatever reason...). For major help in
building this model, it's recommended that you get a copy of Mike Mackowski's Space in Miniature #2: Gemini (see the Mail Order Sources page for ordering
details.
