And, of course, what would look better on your display stand for it than this?:
No --think Aurora-type stand.
That's one be gooberfish.
It is pretty nice. Got mine yesterday. A couple of other nits to add to the review:
- The louvers on the engine tubes were done with a mold insert, leaving a seam and slight step that has to be addressed
- There is no ceiling for the control room so you can see above the walls into the big empty hull. There wasn't a ceiling in the real set either because that's where the set lights were, so no one knows what it would have looked like, but the kit should have had one.
- Think they should have included interior walls for the FS. Given the excellence of the control room walls, this seems a bit odd.
Overall though, a very impressive kit!

Here's a nifty piece of trivia. Where did the TV Seaview's computer come from? It's the computer Katherine Hepburn and her crew of female data-finders were scared shitless of when Spencer Tracy brought it into their office in the movie "Desk Set":
