[NCC-73515]

The Probert C took a while to sell out, I was expecting it to go in seconds.

The missing texture is just too odd, and the missing dark windows on one side. The only one that may be more sloppy is the negh'var with its gaps on the ventral side

See, that’s the problem, I want mine to be so excruciatingly detailed that you can almost smell the new spaceship scent—you know, that weird sort of plastic meets warm PCB board kind of smell.

I want to be able to pull it apart and see elaborately detailed diorama on every deck. Wait until I start laying out the 1701D like I did the Republic Cruiser.

There was going to be a partswork model of the 1701-D years ago (but never came to pass) that would have been assembled from clear lucite slabs showing a blueprint of each deck, sounds like you would have liked that.

I would have loved it. I’m an RPG fan who does realistic gaming maps so this already draws my interest.

Those are awesome!

Don’t forget the Advent Ent-D

Oops, realized I didn't include the link in the previous post:

I guess I remembered wrong and they did start releasing it, I thought it had never left the prototype stage.

am I the only one just now noticing the registry on the Yosemite shuttle is wrong.

the model is 77567 but it should be 75567.

not that it would have stopped me from buying but wow.

I wonder if that would have been caught if Eaglemoss didn't go out of business? I can't imagine much quality control happened towards the end. Not that such cock-ups weren't par for the course at Eaglemoss anyway, lol.

 

[Paul755]

I’m guessing Eaglemoss wouldn’t have caught it. I went back and found the picture of the one Ben Robinson sent to the LD show creator after the line tanked and it’s wrong there too.

again, it’s no big deal. I’m still happy to have it. But c’mon guys.

Apart from modifying the Yosemite's registration number, Beckett Mariner also affixed a license plate to the shuttle which reads: OUTTATIME.
Typical!

 

[NCC-73515]

That shuttle registry has appeared

The ships registry says 75567, but the shuttle says 77567. I wonder if someone screwed up, or the shuttlecraft is from a different ship that just happens to have the same last 3 numbers.

We are clearly being trolled, with the NCC-77567 shuttle 'Red Wood' landing next to the NCC-75567 shuttle 'Redwood' in the Cerritos shuttlebay.

haha, fuck

I was interested in Shuttle Set 5, but none of those sets had sold out previously, so of course since I was busy for today’s drop it sold out.

 

[Macintosh]

I'll never know why they never did a separated Galaxy. I know they didn't want to do a separatable one, presumably for the same reasons they didn't do a movable Intrepid or Bird of Prey, but a special with the separate parts and two stands would have been great.

100% this. Especially given the rabid devotion given to every other conceivable variation of Voyager.

 

[Paul755]

I guess the search function is you friend re: the Yosemite.

except the two cheapest versions of Voyager they could have done. At warp and landed.

I think Ben talked about the reason they didn’t do a separating E-D once but it was more about a version that could separate and re-attach. It would have been too costly. A version that you could display in two pieces seemed like it would be a no brainer.

I’m kinda surprised they never went with “battle damaged” versions like Johnny Lightning did. You could have had the Reliant from WoK, the 1701 from Wok/Search for Spock, Voyager from Year of Hell, NX-01 from Azati Prime, etc…

Some of Eaglemoss's couriers took care of that

I always had those filed under “eventually”, but it is surprising they never did at least one, they were quick enough to do mirror universe versions.

Doing one as a convention or shop exclusive as a test run would have been the way to go. Probably would have had to do an XL or mid-sized ship for the paint job to be anything more than black splotches of paint.

The CRAVIC warship
Size: 450m
Type: APU (automated personnel unit) battleship/cruiser.
My GamePrint model is as golden as I could get it in STO but side by side with the eaglemoss mode it looks greenish now.
Images of what the magazine would’ve looked like, and the Cravic entry in the Delta Quadrant book.
Base stand says PRALOR.

seems like them using Royal Mail to ship actually is faster than Whistl that they used before. And the online tracker actually works.

Oh, I guess I forgot to mention, but Whistl seems to use other services for the actual shipping (usually Landmark), if you use the supplied tracking number with the actual shipping service's website then it works much better.
