Here's a quick comparison between Pegasus and the DST Excelsior.

Well.. I guess we're getting the Reliant and TOS BoP from DST then since I'm clearly a seer.

If it is the Reliant I really wouldn't understand the choice anymore, I hardly ever see requests for it vs the other 3.

I'm really hoping it isn't Borg, I personally have 0 interest in a Borg ship, it'd have to be something amazing for me to actually want to buy it. Like a sphere launch cube or something, I don't know.

The armored Voyager was one the creater was adimant on releasing, i personally think it is freakin really cool, and not REALLY a duplicate, it is pretty different than regular Voyager

I have no issue with it being released, I've always loved endgame Voyager, I just don't think it should have come before some other ships, especially the TOS Enterprise.

That Enterprise C looks great, I'm super happy it's not overally blue like a lot of Cs have been.


#78849 USS Enterprise A

I wouldn't call fixing light bleed a feature request, its an issue that all TWOKs have had, and DST has made progress on fixing it with their latest releases, but it still isn't perfect. Hell, as much as I don't like light bleed, i'd much prefer them fix the lighting on the nacelles before anything else. 

 

I wouldn't say opening up a ship and painting the inside is something everyone could do, I sure wouldn't feel comfortable doing that.

 

This is a toy, not a collectors display piece, I feel some people tend to forget that. A lot of collectors do buy them and display them, but there are certainly kids out there playing with them too, and having a hidden sound on a toy is cool. 




#78780 USS Enterprise A

Gosh, sometimes we sound like spoiled brats.

Ya, i'm a bit surprised by some of these comments

 

We're finally getting a re-release of the Enterprise A, with brand new sounds and a lights on feature, and people complain about it "only being 10 seconds." 

 

They could have not given one to us at all, kept it like the rest of the TWOK Enterprises and just had it play the sounds, but they didnt, they gave us a lights on feature that makes more sense on a battery powered toy then having a constant one. 

 

How many people actually have their DST ships running with the lights on all the time? I'm sure some of you do, but the grand majority probably only use it occasionally. I know personally I hardly ever turn them on, i'd love it if somehow they could have a wall plug so I could have them on, but i'm not gonna waste batteries to leave them on all the time. 

 

I know for me the A is something i'll certainly be buying.

There could be a technical reason with how the mold is that prevents a constant lights on feature, maybe 10 seconds was the best they could do. There's no way to know unless Zach tells us.

I stand by what I said, if these things came with a wall adapter then I'd absolutely expect a lights on feature, but being battery powered 10 seconds is good enough. We should be happy there's a lights on feature at all since every other version of this ship hasn't had one.

If I can't get those shuttles in the US I'd  be a bit mad, I've always loved the type 9 Voyager shuttle and would love to have it alongside the Delta Flyer.

I don't even know how I'd react to a Prometheus toy, especially one with MVAM. It's my favorite Trek ship and would absolutely love to have a DST sized version of her.

 

At this point the 2 ships i'm expecting to be announced are the Reliant and TOS Romulan BoP. The BoP I feel meets the whole surprised and angry reactions it could get since I think there are other ships that deserve to be made first.

So i got my Tantive IV today

These X-Wing Miniatures ships just keep blowing me away with the detailing.

I can't wait for Star Wars Armada and its capital ships.

I like. I wonder what scale it will be


I'm gonna guess it'll be about the same size as the refit.

The Romulan BoP has been done by playmates, and given how basic of a design it is it was a good representation of it.

Borg ships are just geometric shapes and boring, sure some glowing and cool sculpting could make it better but it's still just a shape.

Neither of these are things I'd be super excited for, I don't even know if I'd buy them. Especially when there's other alien ships that deserve to be made, like the TNG Warbird, Dominion Attack ship, even Cardassian ships are more interesting.


#78224 Star Wars The Black Series Imperial Shadow Squadron

So I bought my first Black Series figures, mainly because of the speeder bike. Very impressed with it, makes me want the Endor set that comes with the AT-ST.

I really hope we don't get a TOS BoP. It's such a bland ship and playmates did a good enough job on it.
