Soleil Royal, Aurora Heller 6550 (1977) (scalemates.com)
Aurora and Heller had a joint venture between 1972 and 1977. 
The kit you have is a rare one. That's why you had a little hard time to find information and no I couldn't find any videos either.
There is/was an unopen box at auction in pristine condition a while back.
Don't know the outcome of it.

Frank, I have no information on the "Prestige Series".
Your kit is the one of the last in the series released 1977.
Found this interesting information for you.

I do hope you enjoy this video:

 

Found this history as well;

 

 

 

One website over in Europe that might be helpful for you to get higher quality parts for your kit is HiSmodel.

Hope this is somewhat helpful.
