Hasegawa 10729 1/200 Space Shuttle Orbiter with Boosters Replica

The Hasegawa 10729 1/200 Space Shuttle Orbiter with Boosters is a compact scale model that captures key design features of the shuttle and its booster stack. The kit's parts are moulded for clean assembly and present a convincing miniature of the original spacecraft.

Accurate Profiles and Period Detail

The shuttle played a significant role in modern aerospace operations, and this model reflects that with accurate hull lines and booster geometry. Details are sculpted to convey the look of the vehicle while remaining manageable for hobby work.

Build Flow and Finishing Tips

Parts are designed to fit together neatly, allowing builders to concentrate on seam removal, paintwork and decals to lift the model's realism. Display the finished model with a small base or combine it with other spacecraft models for a themed collection.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/200
  • Material: PS Plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included
While parts fit well, achieving a high-quality finish requires time for filling, sanding and painting, so it is not a rapid weekend build if aiming for display standards.
Basic modelling tools like sprue cutters, hobby knife, sanding sticks and fine brushes are sufficient. Precision tweezers and masking tape help with decals and small parts.
Yes, the parts are suitable for light modification such as custom bases or adding tiny accessories, but major structural changes will require scratchbuilding skills.
Apply decals over a gloss surface and seal them with a clear varnish to prevent silvering and protect them from handling and dust.
