I'm a bit behind in posting this due to ... LIFE & DEATH.
But anyway, here's the U.S.S. CLARKE NCC-1661 ...



This is an imgur album with the booklet pics.

The middle pic kinda looks like an upside down flying FryPan!

I cringe every time I see the Klingon ships from last season, they look rubbish.

I just think of it as a time period when the Klingons had a rag, tag fleet composed of 24 opposing houses and everybody wanted their own distinct look for their starships.

I just think they could have done better period, all they had to do was use the D5 or give us a D6, it wouldn't have been so bad if the ships we got at least looked somewhat Klingon but they don't.

It would have made the battle in the pilot so much better, the Sarcophagus ship could have stayed as it is due to it being ancient and a one off.

The Klingon ships they came up with looked too much like the Alien Ship of the week we were used to seeing on Voyager, they did a good job with the Starfleet ships only to make a mess of the Klingons.

Just a shame that's all.
 
Well, if They start showing us classic Klingon ships this season, then we can just write it off to learning that there's more to the Klingon Fleet in this time period than we knew.
I don't mind if They add more types of Klingon playthings, as long as get to see the originals mixed in as well.
On the other hand, if They add stuff to Replace Only, then I have a problem with it.
:techman:

DSC Klingons: Those Starfleeters have pretty nice ships with their simple angles and grey hulls... It would be honorable to adopt some stylistic motifs in our next line of warship.

Perhaps, but I'm thinking now that L'Rell has taken over, she'll be the one to standardize the Klingon Fleet back to something akin to Captain Archer's time.

The next EagleMoss Discovery Klingon ship is on the way to my doorstep...

I'm also a bit peeved about the fact that the DISCOVERY Line is priced $20 more than the regular Star Trek ship line, with no real higher quality or extras included with them.

I'm not denying that these models are overly expensive, but the Discovery line models are larger than the regular issues. So that's probably where the different price comes from. :)
 
Whichever House commissioned that starship class, they really wanted "War" as a class name...

They’re about the same size as the $40 specials, I think the extra cost is probably due anticipating smaller production runs.
 
They are a little larger in scale, but the Classic Trek line is all over the place with the size of the ships so it's hard to tell.

The DISCOVERY subscription line does come in a fancy box with better packaging and the freebies seem to be a bit higher in quality, so I guess that's where the price increase came from.
:shrug:
 
Looks like Issue #11 in March is going to be the U.S.S. SHRAN NCC-1413 ...

"The U.S.S. Shran NCC-1413 is a Magee-class Federation starship and one of the smallest class in operation in the 23rd century.
The ship had a unique nacelle design that ran around through its saucer section.
It was also one of the Federation starships to answer a distress call from the U.S.S. Shenzhou after it came under threat from Klingon forces.
The conflict - which became known as "The Battle at the Binary Stars" - led to the destruction of the U.S.S. Shran.
It was later commemorated with a display in the mess hall of the U.S.S. Discovery."

(I've edited this paragraph from the EM site, it had atrocious spelling and incorrect info)

The paint job on the Shran is much better than I'm used to from Eaglemoss. I mostly never get their ships because the paint application sucks.
