LEGO Enterprise rumors

A LEGO Star Trek: TNG comedy film (not canon, but just fun) might be really cool.

I so want the Enterprise D. For those who are more LEGO-acquainted are these sorts of releases in demand, a bit of a bun fight? Can you pre-order online or do I need to go to a shop?

Thanks.

Yeah you can pre-order for home delivery. Commonly you get a free gift if you order direct from Lego, usually a small extra set, sometimes related to the set.

For example, the new Death Star set that was recently announced had an exclusive TIE fighter set to add to the Death Star for early pre-orders.

Rumours suggest the equivalent for the Enterprise-D will be a shuttlecraft with Ensign Ro figure.

But the Enterprise set itself will probably be around for a few years. Sometimes they initially sell out quite quickly if they are in demand, but Lego does restock frequently until a set is officially retired.

Had a dream last night about the LEGO Star Trek announcement. The website was updated to include pics of a ginormous Lego Enterprise-D which opened up in the saucer to show the Bridge, sickbay and ten forward, and the stardrive opened to depict main engineering. The ship was out of proportion due to the various interiors but it was super cool. It was like in the old Playmates Innerspace Enterprise-D playset where the viewscreen in the bridge had swappable viewscreens, all the freestanding bridge consoles swiveled and the warp core and nacelles lit up. I don't even remember how much it cost in my dream but it must've been a fortune.

If it sells well maybe they might make a large one, or Lego sets of the interiors.

A bridge set seems an obvious thing to do - they've done a lot of sets for TV sitcoms like Friends, The Office and Seinfeld, so an Enterprise bridge would fit in well.

I wonder how they'd handle the complex curves of the set?

They wouldn’t.

LEGO should be confined to MINECRAFT

A better approach would be like the old Electronic Enterprise with smooth hulls and nacelles, but Snap-ship style.

I think LEGO tried something similar with figures years ago—but it didn’t sell.
