I really enjoy Polar Lights kits, and was very sad when I heard the news that they were out of business. Thankfully they were picked up (along with many other company's) by Round 2. Slowly Polar Lights kits are making there way back to the stores. I've built quite a few of their kits, 1:350 Enterprise NCC-1701 Enterprise Refit, 1:1000 TOS Enterprise, 1:1000 NX-01 Enterprise, the Flying ship from "Star Trek Nemisis" whose name eludes me now, and the half finished 1:350 NX-01 Enterprise.
One of there more recent entry's is the 1:1000 NX-01 Refit, a great new entry to the Star Trek line. This was only available for a while as a resin upgrade kit. It's uses most of the same Molding as their original NX-01 but has a few new upgrades. My favorite part is that it can be built as both the standard NX class or the Refit. And still includes parts to build the NX-02 Columbia.
I've documented my build on my Youtube page, I didn't get to post and nice stills of the completed model. As many Star Trek modelers know, the Enterprise is a hard subject to photograph. Every angle is a new pose, so hope that I covered them all. For the video build simply search "rebelsatcloudnine" on Youtube.
