they upcoming reissue of the CM and LM module kit are not the versions used in the moon landings.
Question - Are the kits used in the 1/48 moon landing kit with the moon base the same early kits or corrected for the proper moon landing versions.
If so I was thinking about swapping them out with the ones provided with the reissue..
thx - Craig
The Tranquility Base or Space Hero Buzz Aldren LM re-pop was originally issued by Monogram - the stack that is being reissued was originally by Revell - separate companies at the time. One would think some things would be interchangeable - the one big difference is the landing gear is folded in the stack the Monogram kit has them deployed - so you'd have to also swap kit to kit parts. The S-band atenna may also need mods for launch. I think at some point there were aftermarket parts to update the CSM. One would hope someone is working that now for the reissue.

.It's been said that the Monogram LM is more accurate than the Revell one. I will be replacing it in mine when I get it.
