Well, I had been looking for one of these for years. Two of these ships spent some time in the harbor in my town years ago and I always wanted to build a kit of them. A friend of mine at Baycon saw one and told me about it and for 8 bucks I thought what the hell!.......weeeeeeeeeelllll There were no directions in the box, the model was somewhat started, and the quality SUCKS! thick parts, flash, and not very convincing. Worst of all was there was ONE clear plastic part that had been already build and is so crazed with glue that I am either cutting it off and trying to shape a piece of clear sprue, or Im painting over it. If anyone has this kit, and could scan the instruction sheet it would be a GREAT HELP!. I see alot of scratch building and home made PE work in my future.... (

Ok then...1/131...gotta love the Revell in between scaling! Like the 1/534 carrier I have in the cave! Looks like it will be a neat little kit to work with...there was a couple reviews out there on this. I took a quick look around for instructions...nothing! As you know! I did find a In Box review on YouTube and the guy goes page by page and you can see them...maybe full screen you can screen shot on pause and save it! I will toss and email out to a friend that might have something as well! youtu.be/o3zsQ9SRZG0Good luck on the build!!

Just a follow up...I did contact Revell. A gentleman in the customer/Tech services here in the US let me know they do not have copies of the instruction...sadly! It does seem to be one of a few not on the list of .pdf versions of the instructions on the Revell website. If anything turns up, I will let you know!
