The Old Man - 02 May 2008 11:39 GMT

I posted this question at the scalemodeling.mybb3.org site, but as
they're gone (or appear to be), I'll post it here as well.
Last week I won a copy of the USS Daedelus starship on ePay and just
received it. It's well cast, three pieces (hull and two nacells/mount
struts), no decals nor instructions. It's about 1:1000, being a bit
over seven inches in length.
For my files, I'd like to file the model under manufacturer rather
than "Unknown" (has happened in the past), but when I asked the
seller, he replied that he got the model a number of years ago as is
from a friend and didn't have a clue as to who made it.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks for your help.

Is it a resin model? If so, it may the 1/2500 scale one on this site.
Scroll down to the 1/2500 series (1/4th the way down).

I didn't look enough for the ship in my last post and noted the wrong
size, so I canceled the message. Here is a better find on the same page
(just in case you see the first message).

Is it a resin model? If so, it may the 1/1000 scale one on this site.
Scroll down to the 1/1000 series (2/3rds the way down the page).

The is the ship in form and size, but my copy has a bit more
pronounced panel lines. ~Might~ be a garage-kit version of it...
