This kit was originally issued in 1979 in time for the premiere of “Star Trek: The Motion Picture”, when we got our first view of the new Klingon cruiser. The K’Tinga, which was based on the D-7 Battlecruiser as seen in the 1960’s television series, was shown attacking a cloud that was later discovered to be V’Ger, or Voyager.

The review sample was issued in the 1990’s as part of the product line for “Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country”. It is supposed to represent Kronos One, the ship of the Klingon Chancellor. However, it is a straight re-pop of the original issue without any of the added detail required to duplicate the Kronos One filming model. The kit is in-scale with the Refit Enterprise kit that was also issued in 1979.

The kit is molded in light aqua styrene and has mostly raised-panel details. Basic decals are included (a total of five) to portray Kronos One.

There are extensive aftermarket kits available to actually transform this kit into the Kronos One filming model. The kits are produced by JT Graphics and are available on the company’s website.

The completed kit is over 15 inches long.
