Klingon Bird of Prey Hmmm !!! #@#@

[dbhs]

I'd love to have a BOP in studio scale. 36" wingspan according to http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Klingon_Bird-of-Prey.

I've seen a few build ups of the WARP versions and came close to getting one until I saw all the trouble it has with resin quality. I believe that one's about 27" wing tip to wing tip. Here are some links. I'm not sure about how accurate it is to the detailing of the original but seems pretty good. Here are some links.

The real deal.

Sciford's build up of the WARP model with lighting is the best I've seen so far.

Here's the "turd of prey" thread - pics gone but the text tells the tale.

I seem to remember a rumor about someone kitting this a long time ago but i haven't heard anything lately.

I'd love to have one but don't build a master just for me .

Oh, yeah - if you're going to make one, don't miss this ref goldmine:
