This kit has been produced since the 1970's and I think the molds are getting pretty worn. Parts fit reasonably well and the detail is pretty good. Some parts have very nice detail and others, not very realistic like the stage two engines.. I bought this instead of the Lego because it is a lot less expensive and you get an idea of the machinery and construction of the real rocket. With the lego, you just have a lot of pricey plastic with little idea of how the real thing was put together or worked. I think the Airfix Saturn V is a better kit, I discovered that after I had ordered this one. All in all I am satisfied with the Revell.

model is ok for a static model of the Saturn V IF you don`t take it apart for display, as the second stage motors bear no resemblance to any rocket motors at all and completely devoid of any detail whatsoever, the third stage is not much better either no detail at all, sorry Revell completely un exceptable, had to resort to after market resin parts to correct the deficiency, come on Revell pull your fingers out and correct these deficiencies, otherwise forget the Revell model and buy the airfix kit instead as it is a lot better not perfect but better than the Revell offering

As a child of the Sixties, all things to do with The Space Race, NASA, CCCP, Cosmonauts, Saturn V, Mercury etc. were essential learning. So I am delighted that I have finally got my hands on this Revell Classic Kit. I have no idea where I will display the finished model as it stands some 3' Tall. Plenty of detail and plenty of parts should keep me busy for several months before the Model is finished.

This is a very detailed model of the saturn 5 rocket, You'll need to help a child build it, but what better way to have quality parent / child time? Needs some space to display once its built, and it might not survive being played with by a boisterous older child, as it splits up into the stages.
