In the movie Iron Sky (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Sky ) Nazis from the moon attack the earth in 2018. They use the Varkyrie flying saucer for their attacks. I find this vehicle is one of the coolest spaceships seen in a movie ever, the designers did a perfect job! I found the kit under the name
"Luftpanzer" (which means "air tank" in German) on the website of Skyhook Models (
http://www.skyhookmodels.com/index.htm ).
About two weeks after my order it arrived safely and I was surprised about its excellent quality. The surfaces are
detailed very lovely, the bottom of the display shows the structure of moon´s surface in a perfect way. A rod out of acrylic glass comes also with the kit to fit the model to the display. In the movie it´s said that the flying saucers have a diameter of about 20 m. The diameter of the model is about 16 cm, so the scale is 1/125. Thomas Brückelt
