Star Trek: Starships Model/Magazine Subscription

[NOVE9]

I emailed them yesterday about this months delivery as i haven't heard anything. They've yet to respond.

What ships that they have not done/announced do you want to see most?

http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Star_Trek:_The_Official_Starships_Collection << List of what has been done/announced for handy reference...

I want the Scimitar, Steamrunner, Norway, Saber, Federation Scoutship, Defiant Shuttle, Voyager shuttle (those sleek ones), Insurrection shuttle, Borg Queen ship, Breen warship, and Spacedock.

Aussie collectors....when is the next issue due to be dispatched from suppliers??

Received an email today saying that issues 12 and 13 will ship today and payment will come out 3/10.

 

[mindx2]

I was charged yesterday for my next shipment and notified by PayPal that the normal $43.80 was paid to Eaglemoss LTD. However, my bank statement shows the vendor name as Gareth Watkinson, not Eaglemoss LTD. as it always has since I started my subscription. Anyone else have this where the vendor name is different?

That's odd, and slightly concerning. Gareth Watkinson is the head of subscriptions at Eaglemoss. I'm not sure why his name would appear on the statement. I'd contact Eaglemoss.

Oh, I did immediately but haven't heard back yet. That's even more disconcerting knowing that Watkinson actually works for Eaglemoss.

Do you think he might actually be funneling money away from Eaglemoss on this? Seems a pretty sloppy way of going about it, seeing as his name is plastered all over the transactions. If it is embezzlement, someone is going to notice pretty quickly, I wager.

Update - my most recent transaction from Eaglemoss (dated 9/9/2014):

Sale EAGLEMOSS PUBLICATIONS LT $39.90 - LONDON000000000GB - Online, Mail, or Telephone transaction

No reference I can find anywhere to a Gareth Watkinson.

My emailed Paypal receipt states:

Merchant
Eaglemoss Ltd
eaglemoss@dbfactory.co.uk
$43.80

...but my bank statement clearly states:

GARETH WATKINSON IAT PAYPAL 43.80

Same date of transaction and amount. I've emailed twice but haven't heard anything. I didn't even know who this was until it was mentioned here. I'll be calling next.

 

[mindx2]

Received an email from Eaglemoss this morning:

Thanks for your email.

There was a slight error with the paypal account so it put our paypal account holders name (Gareth Watkinson) instead of the companies name. This has been resolved so it will go back to eaglemoss for future payments.


Kind regards

Rian

Mystery solved...

 

[137th Gebirg]

Good to hear.

 

[publiusr]

Looking forward to the Valdore.

 

[Ethros]

^ Definitely same here. I'm not gonna bother with the Nausicaan raider myself

 

[Mr Pointy Ears]

Got the cardassian galor cass model yesterday and as I was taking it out the main bridge section was broken mange to return it to the local newsagent and got a other one.this was the first one I got that was faulty\broken.

 

[Ethros]

Well in regards to that USS Titan petition, I made a note a month ago on September 3rd that it was up to 1245 out of the needed 5000 votes.
A month later today it's up to 1627. So that's 382 votes in a month. So that's 3373 to go...

Yeah, long way to go Titan fans.

 

[NOVE9]

So any news on the new issues at Star Trek Destination 3?

 

[Dac]

As far as new announcements, they'll come tomorrow at the panel they're having most likely.

As for new photos, I took this earlier:

Yes, the Vengeance is HUGE (a bit shorter than the JJprise, but wider. The saucer is almost as big as DS9 is) but then so are The Grissom, Runabout, Pasteur and Delta Flyer. The Grissom especially felt huge and in doing so is my favourite rendition of the Oberth.

 

[NOVE9]

Very cool.Thanks. I can see issues 41 and 42 which I'm pretty sure we've not seen before.

 

[NOVE9]

So Just checked FB and the new issues are:

51: Hirogen hunter ship
52: Centaur class
53: the klingon augment ship
54: Steamrunner class
55: D'Kyr Vulcan class

Also confirmed the Norway, Kazon ships and the NX refit.

 

[Ethros]

Steamrunner & Centaur, yay!


Isn't the Klingon Augment basically the same as the Raptor-class from Sleeping Dogs though? (which is also out soon.) They kinda look pretty much the same from the pics I can see online.

 

[NOVE9]

Yeah i tend to agree but most of the enterprise klingon ships looked like variants of the same design. This page has the different designs:
