I just read the latest ask DST.  One questioner asked if Defiant, the C or Voyager are next for release.  Chuck says they are all under consideration but none are next.  So at least we know what isnt coming.  So let more speculation begin.  Could Reliant be next?

It was also said the TNG Romulan Warbird and Galor class a not amongst the next "few". So my bet on the new alien ship would be either the TOS Romulan BoP, or the D7/K't'inga. Another interesting note, the word "Reliant" was tagged, but I was unable to find anything about the Reliant, whether a question or an answer. My bet on the next Fed-ship would've been the Reliant/Miranda class anyway, especially considering there are not much choices left to do that would probably sell well. And I see the Miranda class way before an Akira, Nebula or Constellation, for example.

Even though Chuck has also been quoted as saying the next ship won't be a Klingon ship I hope a D7/KTINGA is next.

I think we're inching ever closer to TNG Trek Tek.

Good spot regards the Reliant tag, DefiantOne. :)

 

There really have been hints towards different ships over the past few months (years?). I really do wish they'd just say what the next two are...

I'll be thrilled to get the reliant.  And the either the k'tinga/D-7 or TOS romulan.  Based on the latest comments by chuck those are the frontrunners.

 

I think I'm gonna be singing that song by pharrell williams...

Didn't they already say Reliant wasn't next? They've denied everything, clearly we're getting some obscure ship no one is asking about. Worker bee, calling it now.

They already said they wouldn't do another Klingon ship this quick, so it prolly wont be K'Tinga.

I wouldn't mind some TNG Trek Tek.  They've done a pretty good job with the TOS items.  While there's still some TOS stuff they could do, maybe they should shake it up a bit.

As long as it's a new ship, I'm happy. Of course, I'd be happier if it was TNG/DS9/VOY related, but I've kind of given up hope on a DS9, Jem'Hadar fighter, Defiant and Voyager.

 

I'm betting that, while it seems a given that the next one will be the Reliant, I'm betting that a Saratoga variant will be made.

Movie-era Federation ships onwards, are all ships I'd love to have, no different with the Reliant. As for the alien ship, if it's Klingon or Romulan from the movie-era onward, then it's a definite purchase for me. The only TOS ship I'd contemplate would be a D7, but even then, I'd rather 'wait' for the inevitable K't'inga version. 

 

Tell them to make the Defiant and Voyager next time though, please Zach. :)

Sorry for the thread necromancy.  No offense to any TWOK fans but I'd be dissapointed if the next ship is the Reliant.  I was really looking forward to DST's take on the Defiant.  Now I wonder what the next alien ship could be.  Perhaps a Jem'Hadar bug for DS9's anniversary.

I would've kept that to myself robster, as it really comes across as boasting (pouring salt in our wounds). I've beta tested lots of big-name videogames (quick examples: Red Dead Redemption, Grand Theft Auto five), and I wouldn't dream of telling anyone else, because all it does is make them miserable, and that's not what I like doing...

 

As for Zach telling you the next ships though, well, I really don't have a clue what to think when it comes to DST's PR strategy. I gather he knows you, but I'm just at a loss as to why we're not being told already. As for Zach's excuse ages ago of it stopping people buying ships they're bringing out in the meantime, that's wrong for several reasons:
One, it's such a long time inbetween ships coming out, that there's no way collectors are passing on one ship to wait for the next. And two, that's an irrelevant argument anyway in my opinion. If someone doesn't want something, telling them what's coming next isn't going to make a difference (see: Apple products, NECA and, oh yes, Eaglemoss!).

 

As for being disappointed in the next ships, for me, that'll only happen if they're called Enterprise - apart from the C, or if they're from the Original Series - apart from the D7. I'd welcome having the Reliant and any Klingon or Romulan ship. Infact, I'd take any alien ship, except something Borg.
