mburkey Just got this model. No paint on it yet but it's clearly a major accuracy improvement over the Famemaster kit parts. I also got the CM and the BPC. Of note, the LES comes in 2 parts as shown, and the projecting stub on the tower is just a bit big for the hole in the rocket - or vice versa. It took just a few minutes to fix that. I also used a micro drill bit to open the holes in the BPC a bit to better insert the legs of the tower. A real noticeable improvement to one of the more accurate models of the Saturn V.
mburkey Just got this BPC, the LES and CM for the Fame Master kit. Together they make a very positive impact on the accuracy on the kit. Not too many years ago, a modeler would be spending hours scratch building or correcting the kit parts. Amazing stuff. Wish you'd do some parts to detail the tank domes and avionics.
mburkey For those interested, these are in scale with the Hawk Convair Atlas Space Station/MOL injection molded kit released in 1960 and again in 1968. Link to some info: http://www.fantastic-plastic.com/CONVAIR%20ATLAS%20MOL%20PAGE.htm
