# Boldly Build: Revell's Star Trek Starter Fleet Has Landed at Shore Line Hobby
For nearly six decades, Star Trek has sent audiences hurtling across the galaxy aboard some of the most iconic vessels ever imagined. Now you can bring four of those legendary ships home — no engineering degree from Starfleet Academy required. Revell's Star Trek Starter Gift Set lineup puts the Klingon D7 Battle Cruiser, two versions of the USS Enterprise, and the USS Voyager on your workbench, each one scaled, detailed, and ready to build.
Whether you're introducing a young cadet to the hobby or you're a lifelong Trekkie looking to round out your display shelf, these four kits make an easy entry point — and an even easier gift.
**The best part? Every single one of these four kits ships complete with cement and paint included**, so there's nothing extra to track down before you can start building. Open the box, and you're already halfway to warp speed.
## The Fleet
### Klingon D7 Battle Cruiser — Kit #13601
Scale: 1:600 | Parts: 72 | Skill Level: 3
First introduced in the original 1960s series, the D7-class Battle Cruiser became the definitive symbol of Klingon power and the Federation's most persistent rival on the final frontier. This 1:600 scale kit captures the ship's distinctive wing-like nacelles and aggressive silhouette in 72 parts, making it an approachable build for anyone ready to step up from beginner kits.
### USS Enterprise NCC-1701 (Into Darkness) — Kit #13602
Scale: 1:500 | Parts: 90 | Skill Level: 3
This version of the Enterprise reimagines the franchise's flagship as seen in the *Star Trek Into Darkness* film. At 1:500 scale and 90 parts, it strikes a great balance between build complexity and finished size — sizable enough to display with real presence, without overwhelming a first-time builder.
### USS Enterprise NCC-1701 (Original Series) — Kit #13603
Scale: 1:600 | Parts: 117 | Skill Level: 3
The ship that started it all. This kit recreates the classic Original Series Enterprise in 1:600 scale across 117 parts — the most detailed build of the four. It's the ship most people picture when they hear "Star Trek," and it remains one of the most requested sci-fi subjects in model building.
### USS Voyager NCC-74656 — Kit #13604
Scale: 1:670 | Parts: 67 | Skill Level: 3
Representing the ship that carried Captain Janeway and her crew through the Delta Quadrant, the Voyager kit is the most compact build in the set at 67 parts and 1:670 scale — a great option if you want to complete a build in a single sitting.
## Why These Kits Work So Well for New and Returning Builders
All four kits are rated **Skill Level 3**, meaning they offer enough detail to stay interesting without requiring advanced techniques like aftermarket photo-etch or resin work. And because **cement and paint are included in every kit**, you don't need to make a second trip to the parts bin — everything required to go from sprue to display piece is in the box.
## Build Tips From the Bench
- **Dry-fit before you glue.** Even with included cement, a quick test-fit of major hull sections helps you spot alignment issues before they're permanent.
- **Paint in stages.** Tackle the hull, saucer section, and nacelles as separate sub-assemblies before final cement — it's much easier to get clean paint lines this way.
- **Work in a well-ventilated space** when using the included cement, and let seams cure fully before handling.
- **Display them together.** All four ships make a striking lineup on a single shelf — consider a simple wood or acrylic display base to tie the fleet together.
