Review: Beautiful model - Once completed this is a beautiful representation of the awesome Hubble telescope. A great gift for model makers and astronomers. The model is quite challenging to make as there are a number of parts that require careful bending into curved shapes (the model is supplied flat). There are a also a number of very small parts. As such I would recommend using a tray or bowl to hold pieces when cutting them out. I would also recommend that when making this or any other metal earth model, that you wear nitrile gloves to prevent finger prints and smears transferring onto the metal. Review: Nice model if you are will to but the time in - A nice small model. A thin sheet metal version of plastic model kits. However the instructions are not very clear in places.Some of the parts are very small and difficult to handle. You also need to be very careful in folding the metal. If you over work the metal , the parts will break at the folding seam. It takes a lot of care in forming the metal into a curve as often it ill need to line up and fit to other parts. Some of the parts do not fit well together. All together a challenge to build, but worth it in the end. A good magnifying glass will be of good help. ## Features - 3D model made of metal - No glue required - Detailed models - Collect and give as a gift - Historical buildings and vehicles + many different licenses ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B010SJZN2W | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Art Craft Kit Type | 3D metal modeling | | Best Sellers Rank | 62,095 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) 1,291 in Educational Science Kits 2,366 in Tool Organisers | | Brand Name | Metal Earth | | Colour | Silver/metallic grey | | Country Of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (2,419) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00032309010930 | | Included Components | Metal sheets, instructions (English language not guaranteed) | | Item Dimensions | 7.6 x 5.1 x 6.4 centimetres | | Item Type Name | Model making | | Item Weight | 0.02 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Metal Earth | | Manufacturer Part Number | 5061093 | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Name | Metal Earth, Hubble Telescope, Konstruktionsspielzeug | | Model Number | MMS093 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Product Style | Modern | | Scale | 1:288 scale | | Seasons | All Seasons | | Set Name | Metal Earth | | Size | Mittel | | Special Features | Metal Earth, Hubble Telescope | | Subject Character | Space | | Theme | Cosmic | | UPC | 032309010930 | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Adult - **Brand:** Metal Earth - **Colour:** Silver/metallic grey - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 7.6 x 5.1 x 6.4 centimetres - **Theme:** Cosmic ## Images ![Hubble Telescope - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61i-O0KdjQL.jpg) ![Hubble Telescope - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Oal8CKWpL.jpg) ![Hubble Telescope - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6126rDM8KGL.jpg) ![Hubble Telescope - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61o0emK+0UL.jpg) ![Hubble Telescope - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61JdEShVIOL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How tall is the model when completed on it's stand?** A: It's about 80 mm tall (3 1/4 inches); its length is very slightly longer than that by a couple of mm; it's 50 mm wide (2 inches).
