AMT Star Trek USS Enterprise Refit Model Kit vs Polar Lights USS Enterprise Refit Model Kit
Buy the AMT if you want a big refit Enterprise you can actually finish: it is 1/537 scale, about 22 inches long, rated skill level 2, and includes a dome base with a metal rod plus decals for both NCC-1701 and NCC-1701A. Buy the Polar Lights if display presence and detail matter more than a manageable build: at 1/350 it finishes around 35 inches with 150+ parts and a detailed shuttlebay with shuttlecraft and work bees. The AMT is the easier, smaller build; the Polar Lights is the centerpiece kit that rewards experienced modelers.
- Choose the AMT Enterprise Refit if you want a large but buildable refit with a display stand and both registry options without committing to a 35-inch project.
- Choose the Polar Lights Enterprise Refit if you have the bench space and patience for a 150+ part, 35-inch kit and want the detailed interior docking bay.
