Revell's 1/96 Saturn V


Since it was launched in 1969, this is the most famous Apollo Saturn V plastic kit in the world. Box with the boy photo was first edition box released in 1969. Brown box is a box of "The History Makers" series resold in 1982. Black box was resold to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the moon landing in 1994. Then up to now, it has been resold with this box several times. And recently, it has been resold at around 2003, and the time of the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11 moon landing of 2009.
Details of this model is incorrect. I suspect because during development, documentation of the real thing was less. It is modeled on a Saturn V Facilities Vehicle SA-500F, detail is different from the one that was used in manned flight. The CSM was made to model the BLOCK-I.
Here are helpful web sites to detail up this kit.
