Success! The order for the array went through and I was able to get the OV-165 this time. Hopefully, since it's only two individual item, I won't get another unpleasant import charge.
Upon reflection, there's not a lot left that I'm motivated to get. I'll certainly get the D-5 tanker (or at least try) and I'd kind of like the Planet Killer. Also, since I got the Orville shuttle, I'd like to get the Orville itself (don't really care what size at this point), but unless someone actually starts introducing new never-released models, I think I'm close to set.
I don't have any XL's, apart from maybe DS9 (although you could could the shuttle Surak, ring ship, and the NX-01 refits as XL's, but they never made a standard size) and don't plan to. Gold ships are certainly out of the question, nor am I really interested in anything from the newer shows or movies (apart from maybe the Bonaventure and Enterprise-F, both of which I already have)..
Would be nice if they eventually come out with some new stuff (still wondering about Degra's ship, and having a Krill ship to battle the Orville would be fun), but I suspect my wallet wouldn't mind a break.

That's cool.
I've noticed that quite frequently that if they list something that sold out immediately a second time it remains in stock for much longer (usually for days). I'm not sure if this is due to errors in their stock keeping system or what.
A bit rich for my blood. I remember back when it was a preorder item, right before Eaglemoss tumbled, it was priced at $250. Inflation and all that, I guess…
It's probably less of a grand gesture and more that it's more expensive to have to go back and redo everything. I bet they got all of Eaglemoss' stock out of the warehouses for pennies on the dollar, so they probably have 90%+ margin on all of this stuff.
The Reliant concept is one of the ones I'm waiting for too. Fingers crossed!
I had a similar experience when they carried some of the unreleased Eaglemoss Doctor Who models before they got the Star Trek ones. Their store broke temporarily when the models dropped and applied incorrect exchange rates and no shipping fees for international orders. I got my order in during that window and they later sent an email explaining the error, but acknowledged it was their fault and in the interests of good customer service they'd allow the order to go through without any corrected charges. Saved me about €30!
They tweeted they had around 500 Gold 1701-Es and 1250 Arrays.
I never would have thought the gold-plated ones were that popular, and one would think that $315 price tag would be somewhat prohibitive, but I guess not on both counts.

I saw online that people are receiving the Phase II shuttle concept and not the TOS Jeffries concept, the former is what they originally said was going to be dropped, while the latter is what was listed on drop day. I was primarily interested in the Phase II as I already had the TOS one. However, I ended up ordering a second TOS on drop day, so I'll probably be only guy who will be happy that they screwed it up.
Even though they were taking preorders for the XL Serenity, I think Robinson tweeted it never actually entered production.
Presumably the same size as Titan and Vancouver, so I guess Universe.
