Plan 9 From Outer Space Flying Saucer
Polar Lights POL970/12
The jet engine halves, alien pilot, stand arm, and stand base will was not used in the movie so this build will not include these either. Only three parts will be used. The clear canopy which will be painted silver and the upper and lower fuselage halves.
…thanks for looking
That’s neat! I never find any interesting kits when I’m looking around, just the normal….. that looks like a fun one.
My favorite terrible movie! Love the saucer kit. Looks like it will take considerable time and effort to construct 
. How will you display it?
Nice! I wonder if it’s based on the saucer they have at the Air Force museum…
Now that is a thread title!
Bizarrely authentic scale model 
I’m liking the Alien pilot figure. What’s the color callout?
Fun AND a model project I’ll actually complete, probably.
Maybe just sitting in front of the box art to describe it’s background.
Hmm, I’ll have to look that up…
I know right!
Great and BIZARRELY Authentic thread, title was killer. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks for checking in 
If I recall correctly, this was the first Sci-Fi model ever produced (originally by Lindberg in 1954).
Interesting, I didn’t know that but that tracks according to SM
Nice job on those seam lines! That’s no small effort.
I built the Glencoe Space Station for a client a few years back and the molds were in rough shape. Lots of sanding and puttying to make it presentable!
Oof, that must have been quite the task. Good job. Looks clean and tubular.
Working on the cockpit dome. This part was already pulled off the sprue and loose in the box. I was about to work on the bottom to smooth it out and fill that gap. Dry fitting reveals this to be unnecessary. That ring around the cockpit hides all that anyway
Filling in the four holes for the rocket thrusters. I’m not using them. The movie didn’t. 
Now I notice a gap around half of the canopy dome. More putty today.
While waiting for ‘chrome’ spray paint to dry. Let’s have a look at more of the box art and decal (deekal) sheet.
Along the outsides of the outer box top:
