Star Trek: Starships Model/Magazine Subscription

And so it begins. Soon you'll be thinking "Where am I going to put all these ships ?" like the rest of us.

 

Speaking of running out of room, how is everyone storing them now that we're into the 100's ?

I am almost out of room on my bookcase.

I've put most of the plaques up on the wall.

I'm thinking I may need a better display method for the ships because some are stuffed into the back.

 

This is strange. I had asked Eaglemoss to send me a replacement magazine and not only did they send me the replacement magazine but they gave me a replacement model. So far it seems I haven't been charge for it. Tthere was a slight problem with one of the nacelles which wasn't sealed properly on the model I already has but I wasn't going to go through the hassle of having to send the old one back over a little thing. But here it is. Another modal.

Cover was all bent up on mine too. There was enough space in the box to actually put it lying flat but what they did instead was to put it in width ways with the model which gave it a big crease in the middle. Such a simple thing they could do to avoid that.

 

So I just got charged the $59.95 for the XL E-D on Friday and, according to an email I received on the same day, it's apparently being shipped. No correction calls or emails from "corporate", no skipping this one like I asked, no nothing. Which, BTW, I completely 100% expected. It's never a good sign when predictable stupidity is the baseline norm.

Oh, well. Guess I'll just flip it on eBay. I mistakenly did a similar thing with the Abrams Bird of Prey from STID, and I was able to recover my cost and then some, so... At least now I'll be able to get the big ships regularly and for $20 cheaper than the store retail price and every one after the E-D will be one I don't have.

Honestly, it's not a terribly big deal overall, just that Eaglemoss' performance in the customer service and provisioning departments continues to be superlatively incompetent.

 

So having had problems with the giant enterprise e, Eaglemoss have again been absolutely brilliant. I live in the uk btw. I emailed them with photos attached of the problem. They then emailed me back saying I hadn't actually attached the pics and asked me to send them again. I sent them and within a couple of days they said they'd dispatch the Enterprise e again and it should arrive within 21 days and that I can keep the first one. I know this won't be popular but I feel really valued by eaglemoss and their customer service. I really hope though that everyone else starts to get service they deserve

Can someone explain how to set up the Eaglemoss folder to hold the magazines that come with the ships? I want to be certain I do it right the first time, so I don't end up with a pile of magazines crowding out the other Trek books at the bottom of my bookcase.

 

For all the problems people have it's pretty great (and surprising) that they would do that.

 

Just got charged for one ship for next month. It is one of the ships I am missing; #93 ECS Horizon. Hopefully this means that there has been a new production run of some of the missing ships that are making their way through the warehouses.

 

Shuttle Set 3 is coming to the US at the end of December. I like them, but I don't think I can justify $100 for them. Hope they have a 30% off discount when they come out lol

 

I always loved the workbee and the travel pod. Not keen on the other two though.

 

Enterprise-E shuttle looks really nice. I'd be foaming at the mouth to get all those if they were regular issues. But not much bigger than Micro Machines at working out at almost £20 each, I can't justify that price.

 

Those pictures always decieve my brain as well, as I think those black bases are the same size as regular issues- therefore those models must be a decent size. Then I remember the shuttle bases are miniature too

 

UNGH!
ARGO!
NEED!

 

If you search Star Trek Binders on YouTube there are several demonstrations out there. It's something easier watched than explained I think.

 

I'll check that out. Thanks!
