Who remembers building this old kit in your youth years? I certainly did! There’s no way I was gonna pass on this reissued kit so it brought back fond memories for me as a kid. The bridge floor area is done. The open floor area is using sheet styrene painted grey primer.
Navigator console, Captain’s chair, and wall panels are painted & ready for decals...
Figures are primered and ready for paint. Figures are of Capt. Kirk, Spock, McCoy aka: Bones, Lt Uhura, Chekhov and Sulu as Navigators. I wish they had a couple extra body pieces for a second female character and Mr. Scott

Re: Star Trek Bridge
I can’t begin to count how many times I saw these kits in stores, but I have never bought or built one. Gonna love watching you build this up Tom. BTW, which additional female character would you like on the bridge? Yeoman Rand?

Re: Star Trek Bridge
In all honesty, I purchased this kit and held off building it thinking Declan was going to start what I thought was a Star Trek Group Build. I got impatient waiting so went ahead and started it - group build or not.

Re: Star Trek Bridge
Neat project!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Very cool! But be careful, Stik may want to blow it up.

Re: Star Trek Bridge
Decals are done! Tomorrow, a shot of clear satin to seal them in. Next is assembly of the bridge (finally) & paint the figures - not looking forward to that.

Re: Star Trek Bridge
I'm with Carlos, I never built one of these before either. Someday it would be nice to get one of these. The original bridge crew is going away.
Yeoman Rand! What a cutie! I always thought she needed more screen time!
