Whoa now we're talking!

 

[SuricataFX]

Can't wait to finally have the Enterprise-C to finish my collection!

 

[CaptainMurdock]

I really like their Pine Kirk and Quinto Spock figures. I hope they make the whole Kelvin crew.

Same here, but given how long it took to get a Mego Sulu, I'll settle for Uhura and McCoy.

 

[saddestmoon]

Yussss! I have Enterprises NX-01, TOS, Refit/TMP, NCC-1701-A, B, D, and E - so looking forward to the gorgeous C!!!!

 

[CaptainMurdock]

Perhaps, but Diamond Select did put out their own Mego style figures of the whole crew like 10 yearso ago.

I seem to be in the minority here, but the Enterprise-C, from my vantage point, is a complete waste of a (what now is becoming) rare opportunity given Diamond Select's pace. I have zero interest in owning this ship. I would have much rather seen the Reliant, a Klingon D7 or a complete re-tooling and improvement on the refit Enterprise model.

Totally bummed now. What a waste.

These new “Mego” figures appear to be nothing more than repackages of the DST figures of 10-15 years ago.

I was looking at them, the DST figures look better. Their likeness for Sulu and Chekov look better than the new Mego ones.

They are already working on the Reliant. The Enterprise-C is a bit fudged on the secondary hull, but for many of us, the Enterprise-C is the last Enterprise we need to complete our collections

Yeah, but if the design is boring, what difference does it make?

 

[2takesfrakes]

Diamond Select definitely screwed the pooch with its Enterprise-C. Trek merchandisers: if your heart isn't in it, don't bother!

 

[SuricataFX]

Many of us have the ships lined up on shelves, having the C missing really does mess up the series from a completionest point of view :P

That said, I'm hoping they get the Reliant out, I'd also love for them to go back and get the Voyager and Defiant re-released, preferably with better moulds!

I don't think Diamond Select ever did the Voyager. They did the Defiant, but the Constitution-class in its "interphasing" form, not the DS9 ship.

I definitely want the Reliant, though. It would be a great companion piece with my battle-damaged TWOK Enterprise, which was a SDCC exclusive.

 

[2takesfrakes]

Were I one to collect STAR TREK model ships, I'd only want the gold ones Picard had on display in his Ready Room. Very classy and cool-looking.

 

[saddestmoon]

Well, as a design goes, I personally love the 1701-C - and have been wanting DST/AA to make one since the line began back at the turn of the century.

After the Refit, it’s my fav Prime starship.

Boring!?! NAY! I say Beautiful!

 

[CaptainMurdock]

I wish they would release their Rand and Nurse Chapel figures. I need those to complete my TOS crew.

I know it'll be next to impossible, but I'd love for them to release a M'Ress.

Well, hopefully a "contact" via a co-worker will be able to get me one of those Hallmark M'Ress/Arex ornament sets at the New York Comic Con.
