-Bought as part of a set of 5x Zentraedi ships in the early 2000's and sat, sealed and unbuilt for the better part of 20 years.
+Bought as part of a set of 5x Zentraedi ships in the early 2000's and sat, sealed and unbuilt for the better part of 20 years. These are simple kits, but also one of the only options for the bad guy battleships from the TV show.
+These kits were distributed with a random character figure (from the TV show) included; not necessarily one related to the ship model.
