Over a year and a half in development ---  Initial design completed during the STS 135 final Shuttle mission...
This exhaustively detailed model is recommended for advanced builders, but if the Apollo LUT can be handled, then 39A shouldn't be a problem.  Replacement parts sheets will be sent at little or no cost.  The build time would be akin to 3 Apollo LUT models, but this can be drastically reduced (by about 75%) by eliminating the myriad of walkways and add-on structures and still yield a worthy launch environment for your Space Shuttle.  The add-ons can then be installed at the builder's discretion.
Bare bones kit to reduce costs to you... No packaging... Comes rolled in a USPS Priority package.  Includes 160 parts sheets and 130 page instructions manual CD.  Lay the sheets flat at room temp under a load (books) for 72 hours or so.
