good point, but id find a way if i were to modify it. but ?199.99 for an unfinished or ?349.99 for a completed one is quite a bit of money...

I could probably get you in touch with someone who might have it for a bit cheaper...it'll still be solid cast IIRC, but would be worth a shot!

Those First Contact phasers were sexy as hell...
...moreso than the horrible ones we saw on DS9, "The Siege of AR-558" if memory holds.
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
 We are not now that strength which in old days
 Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
 One equal temper of heroic hearts,
 Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
 To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
