I just bought 3 Star Trek Voyager snap together minikits by Revell Germany.
The kits are injection moulded in an appropriate colour plastic with markings
printed onto the parts. The cost was 1.99 UK pounds per kit.

USS Voyager: 5 parts; 63mm long, 24mm wide Maquis Fighter: 5 parts; 42mm long,
53mm span Kazon fighter: 4 parts; 48mm long, 17mm wide

All 3 kits include a stand.

Detail is very basic. Fit is fairly poor, and 3 really need glueing filling
and painting.  The carton illustrations are of much larger-scale models,
which is a bit naughty. Overall, a bit like Micromachines done as kits.

The Maquis ship would make a nice enough FT battlecruiser with little or no
work; I'll probably get a couple more of it and the Kazon.

The front end of the Kazon vessel is almost identicle to the front end
of a Star Wars Nebulon-B Frigate.
