Alan,
It was assembled straight out of the box. no painting, transfers etc... all plastic moulded coloured pieces
I think there were 10 polythene bags full of Lego with each bag assigned to a specific part of the rocket - F1 engine base unit ,stage 1, stage 2, J2 engine base unit, stage 3, service module, command module, launch escape tower, lunar module ( located inside stage 3 ), rocket support brackets ( not used ) and a 36 page assembly book
My Lego Saturn 5 stands about 1m tall. I'd hate to slip and drop the thing , boy what a mess it would make , not to mention re assembly , it would be a nightmare as there are so many similar parts with subtle differences for specific parts of the rocket. You would have to totally pull it apart and place the parts one by one into bags again. From memory I think there was around 2000 parts
