The nacelles might need to be a tad larger

I would also like the Galaxy class study model

 

it all works on any browser on the PC. It's Firefox on the iPad that fails. Will just need to use other browsers.

 

Oh, that is more than a 20-item wish list. There are 100 on there (because people started spamming various ships).

 

Well I was just charged for the next duo of ships. Issues #100 & #101 should be on the way soon!

 

I also received the same email and my Paypal is being charged for the Big TOS-E. I still really hope this doesn't mess up US subscribers getting the Franklin.

I am kind of irritated that I'm getting 100 & 101 while still missing those earlier 4 issues when last any of us knew was that 3 of those back-ordered issues were supposed to be in-stock for July. I'll give benefit of the doubt as it is still June, but I'm sick of getting shrugs, mehs, and I dunno's from the CRs there.

 

Mattel's Hot Wheels line, I believe.

I am so glad I didn't order the oversized ships yet.

I have not gotten any emails about the Franklin yet.

The "Platinum Subscription", IIRC, mainly done (or at least 1st done) in Germany. If you got the platinum, you would get the 1st shuttle set included. I do not know if this is the same for the 2nd set.

Now, this begs the question: Will the shuttle sets be a part of this? And what about the Mirror issues?

Honestly, I am glad that they are doing this for subscribers. This way I don't have to worry about having missing a ship. I do agree that this will be a pain for those that already ordered it, but as they do notify you beforehand about it, it is easily cancelled.

I do need to check on a few of my missing issues myself.

 

So I managed to get two Yeager's when I only ordered one, emailed the place and they said error is theirs so I could keep it. Does anyone know of a site where people trade these? I'd rather trade than throw it up on eBay. I still have a long way to go to catch up, only have 17 ships as of today.

 

I saw that, kind of astonishing the mark up on some of them.

Not sure if this is appropriate here or not, if it's not feel free to edit this or just have me remove it. If anyone is willing, I'm up for trading a Yeager, just PM me.

 

It's a well known problem. I've seen many discussions on FB. The stand barely holds the model at all. It's as if it's for a different model or as if it's supposed to go the opposite way (which it doesn't).

 

So I'm moving this summer and I have no idea how I'm going to transport ~50 of these things. Anyone have any suggestions? I tossed all the original packaging, b/c who has room to store all that?

 

In that case I'd get some big boxes and a metric ass-ton of styrofoam popcorn.

 

I've thought of that and figured if I did have to move the collection I'd get a few boxes of those small sandwich bags and put each individual ship into one. Then place them in a box full of styrofoam popcorn. I'd do it this way even though I have kept all of the boxes. It would take forever to match each ship with it's box (over 100 ships!).

 

I've kept the boxes for the sixty plus ships I have and successfully moved countries without damaging them, whereas a mate moved a few miles and broke a fair few of his.

But anyway, I would sequally pack the ships in bubble wrap and possibly crumpled newspapers and have the stands separately packed.

 

I got an alert that the UK store has restocked - sure enough pretty much everything is available again.

Tempted as I am, I'm going to try to stay strong and resist. I have nowhere to put these ships! I got DS9 and the jumbo Enterprise. I was planning on getting the big D, but having seen photos it's a lot smaller than I expected. Not sure I can justify any others...

 

I have the room, but now I have no idea if "store exclusives" are eventually going to wind up as specials automatically sent to me. I never got an answer to my question asking the difference.
