I am a big fan of the 1950s science fiction films that were being released so often during the craze. This kit captures Earth vs. The Flying Saucers perfectly. It is obviously a simple kit but fun and inexpensive. Assembly is easy and painting with a silver metallic quick. I added an aftermarket resin base with robot figures to top it off and it sits proudly on my shelves. I definitely recommend it for other fans of those bad but good movies.
