ABOUT THE DESIGN

ABOUT THE KIT

Introduced in the first Star Wars "prequel," 1999's "The Phantom Menace,"  the Naboo Royal Starship boasted a sleek, 1950s'-style retro design intended to reflect the optimism of the Old Republic.  Unlike the rigidly geometric, greeblie-covered ships of the Empire era, Naboo technology was smooth, polished and very, very civilized.

Released in February 2009, the Royal Starship was the second in Fantastic Plastic's series of 1:288 scale Naboo space ship kits.  (The first, the Royal Cruiser, was released the previous January.)  Patterned by Scott Lowther and cast by Replicant Casting Co., the 11-inch-long kit featured optional landing gear, an entrance ramp and a desert landscape display stand. 

This kit was retired in July 2009.
