As the longest, heaviest and most powerful rocket ever produced, the original Saturn V stood 110.6m high and had a diameter of 10.1m. The Saturn V was at the heart of NASA’s Apollo and Skylab programs. The Saturn V’s last ever use was the launch of Skylab (mission SL-1) on 14 May 1973, where the upper stage was replaced to accommodate this early space station. Owners of Dragon’s Saturn V rocket will cause jaws to drop, while the finished model will without fail draw gasps of astonishment from onlookers! This is the second monstrous 1/72 scale kit of this rocket type and it comes with brand new toolings. The most obvious difference is the upper stage, which employed an S-IVB stage from a Saturn IB rocket. What’s especially significant about that this part is that half of it is made of transparent plastic to allow viewers to see Skylab nestled neatly inside. All relevant details are carefully reproduced on the two rocket stages and Skylab, and the model comes with accurate and large decals to provide relevant markings. This Saturn V kit will be a centerpiece of any space fan’s collection, and as such it comes with a stable circular base to allow it to stand stably on the floor.
