Hi guys, I was routing through my loft and came across the Electronic version of the NCC1701A, with sound effects etc, well it’s pretty beat up and so I plan to revamp it, but any ideas where to get a new set of decals from?
a ton of them at federation models, starship modeler, enterprise modeler,
lucky you, those are the most easy to find

I always get two sets so I can throw a few extra windows here and there…
Sorry if this seems a bit thick of me, but how do I know what scale the model is?
If it helps heres a pic of the battered kit,
the early kits were 576 scale. the same at the big ones are now. but i could be wrong about that. sorry, i work only with 1000 scale. get a second opinion
Not thick at all. I often have trouble as the kits don’t always say.
The saucer window inserts on the edge and all that over-detailing on the saucer hull make me think you have an early release of the 1/350 scale Enterprise. If it’s about 36" long assembled then that’s what it is, a 1/350.
Fans aren’t even sure and there’s been much debate at Starship Modeler forums on this. The smaller the # the larger the ship, but the kit marked 1/650 is 22" and the one marked 1/537 is 18" so it’s easy to get confused.
If you have the box, you can go to the manufacturer. If it’s Polar Lights 1/350 as I suspect it is, they will have decals available.
Thanks, I checked the model and found an Ertl logo on the base and the saucer section is 10.5 inches across and the nachells are 11 inches, the hull itself is 8 inches long,
Checked that site and I figure I have the correct ones from what I see
