Agreed on all counts. Very nice and I may buy more than one.

I think it kind of looks stupid in Angle #1 (thumbnail on the zoom view page). Side angles from the vertical center and a little below, where you can see the bottoms and tops of the nacelles at the same time make them look comically over-sized to me. From all other angles they seem fine. I haven't seen the actual movie version from enough angles to know if it looks that way in reality -- it probably is not PM's fault.
Still going to buy one though!

For what it's worth, DST does solicit to the big box stores, it's just that those stores aren't buying Star Trek. The only reason the corporate buyers are buying the toys from this line is because of the huge publicity push for it and the fact that this is a fresh version of Star Trek, not the old version. Buyers for these companies are more comfortable buying toys based on a potential blockbuster movie, gambling on the fact that it might be a hit. If the first wave doesn't sell or the movie bombs, don't count on seeing the rest of this line being widely available, if at all as it will end up in the same boat as DST's line and the buyers at those big box stores will end up avoiding it like the plaque (or, rather, the previous Star Trek franchise).
I've already preordered a few of these ships from New Force. Hopefully they will be nicer than the Playmates ships from their first Trek line.

It seems Playmates have come a long way since the First Contact and Insurrection Enterprise - E's
looking forward to it. apparently it's around 14 inches long too so not too big either which i think is a bonus since it wont take up as much room.

Yeah i've had a propper look and it doesn't seem too bad, and actually looks pretty cool with the light bleed anyway lol. Theres a lot on top of the saucer and round the impulse engines as well as the nacelles but i think i got a lot more confused with the blue reflections on the plastic - those are some bright lights!
love it, really can't wait for it to be released

Kirk: Arm phasers fire everyting we've got. With phaser sfx.
Red Alert sfx.
