Hasegawa's Voyager is the 2nd in a series of "Science World" kits. The 1st offering in this series is the 1/72 Manned Research Submersible Shinkai 6500, an intriguing kit in its own right. For those who enjoy "real space" subjects, the release of the Voyager is a stroke of luck.
NASA launched two spacecraft during the Voyager program, known as Voyager 1 and Voyager 2. The actual Voyagers were almost identical, and that being the case this model can be said to represent either vehicle.
This kit is stunning. The 1/48th scale kit contains 86 pieces, molded in black or white plastic. A display base is included, as is an Alien figure that would scale out to be about 5 feet tall. The model is held above the "earth" base on a piece of thick wire and is very sturdy and well balanced. Also included is a piece which represents the "Golden Record" that was attached to the Voyager. In fact, when the finished model is attached to the display stand the "Golden Record" is quite prominent and even has engraved lines representing the appearance of the actual "Golden Record."
