Exactly right. I've had to pay for subsequent binders but they were all sent automatically, in sync with the number of issues expected per binder. This was the first time that none was sent on schedule.

I have the same issue, and I emailed customer service about it. They told me there was a "glitch" that meant that binders were no longer being shipped automatically. They offered to place a separate order for one on my behalf, which I accepted, and I received it a few days later.
AH! Thank you for that. >> sigh << guess I'll have to make another phone call.
Does it still have those wonky bussard collectors on the nacelles?
Sorry, I should have been more clear. On the original refit model, they were made of clear blue plastic without a separating line of paint matching the hull color. Very inaccurate looking. Early images I saw of the new E-A model had those as black plastic, still with no separating line between the two halves. Is that the case with the production version?
Thx!
So, in other news, I called the subscription customer service center and, yes, they're still completely out of the binders, so I got myself on a waiting list for three when they come in. She said they disappear as soon as they arrive, so it's a toss-up if they'll ever actually show at this point. Interestingly, they're only about $8 to subscribers, as opposed to $16 online, not including shipping.

I think the subscription binders and the store ones are a slightly different design. The subscription are the basic blue and black colored ones. The store offerings are the fancy art on the cover.
Interesting. Don't think I ever noticed they were different..
Ugh! I'm looking at Irishtrekkies YouTube review now. It's a wonderful paint job... for the TMP 1701 refit. But where are the fastbacks? The bluegreen, blue or darker grey sections that all versions of the ship had from WoK onwards? They got them right on the B C and Defiant?
I do not know.
I myself like it and I have better things to worry about than the paint job of a model ship.
Bought the Breen ship yesterday. I was kind of nervous about the color scheme I saw in some of the pictures, but I'm really happy with this one. I'm always especially happy to get any ships associated with the Dominion War. I'm probably going to get the Fed fighter tomorrow (payday).
Oh, yeah, middle of last year, I think.
You may have to call them. I go mine a while ago
I'm trying to get a hold of the Breen ship and the Federation Figher now here in the UK (okay, I could have got them back in March, but I wasn't entirely certain...). At the moment, it looks like I can only get the latter from Forbidden Planet and their supplier, not sure if I can get the Breen ship except for when it eventually comes out on the Eaglemoss site (although it almost sounded like the people at Forbidden Planet said they couldn't get that one yet...so I'm hoping I interpreted them correctly and that they haven't had it in due to supply issues, but are due to get it in at some point still).
And, as always, I am torn between whether or not to get any ships off eBay, especially for cheaper than from the Eaglemoss shop (and especially for ships that never seem to be in stock on the UK store). They just don't feel as 'new' to me as ones directly from Eaglemoss, but then some of the ships are rare and I don't expect them to be in stock anytime soon here in the UK (judging by my observations over the past year of the UK Eaglemoss store, anyway - will they ever get the Equinox in, or Defiant magazines that aren't mis-packaged with the Voyager model? Yeah, that last one really did happen to me this year...).
As I am not a subscriber, I ordered one on ebay the other day, it arrived today (and I now have all the Enterprise's they've released) and I don't think it was ever opened, although a fulgy design, it is a nice model and I just need to make room for it in my display.
