This spaceship is composed of total 177pcs plastic parts, plus 22pcs different colors of LED lights. It is worth mentioning that LED lights are rarely used on traditional models, except for Bandai robots and Star Wars spacecraft. This approach is relatively rare. In order to achieve the best results, we specially use custom-made LED lights plus different semiconductor parts to adjust the brightness of the light source,
