Polar Lights Star Trek USS Defiant 1:1000 Scale Snap Model Kit

Product Description

The USS Defiant NX-74205 first appeared in the third season of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode “The Search”. Originally designed to fight the Borg, it played a significant part in the ensuing Dominion War and was eventually destroyed in the seventh season of Deep Space Nine. Later, its sister ship, the Sao Paulo, would be renamed Defiant. The ship also was seen in the feature film Star Trek: First Contact. The Defiant featured many firsts, including the first ship designed by Star Fleet whose sole purpose was combat, and the first ship authorized to use a cloaking device.

AMT released a Defiant years ago in 1/420 scale. Now, Polar Lights has issued a new kit of the ship in the popular 1/1000 scale. The small “Snap-it” kit contains just 30 parts. Molded in a light blue plastic they show excellent detail and thin, deep panel lines. The clear sprue supplies parts for the warp engines (front and rear), the nose insert, rear impulse engines, and phasers.
