I know they said after the B gets its fair chance they'll do something with Excelsior, I also can't wait for it.

In response to the thread title... I'm gonna go out on a limb and say...
Possibly not.
But yeah, Excelsior news would be lovely!

The B is supposedly being reissued this summer, so it might not be till some time after.

Someone said the next B reissue might be 5 months away. I'd say we'll hear something about the Excelsior before then.

Destructor, I should also add that Chuck said something along the lines of "there won't be a BoP with landing gear for at least another five

Usually the exclusives out here will get picked up overseas by another retailer, and prolly in limited numbers as well.

If I were you guys, I would forget retailers like forbidden planet and just go straight to ebay. That's what I do when I want something from the UK or europe. The revell germany star trek kits are a prime example. When that jj-prise hits in may, I'll be grabbing it off ebay. A few select specialty retailers in the us may import it in a couple months. forget that!

Awesome looking, I'm buying that the moment the preorder is up.

Same here. I love it. Let's hope that all the tampos are correct, (unlike the pennants on the Enterprise-B ) and the SFX and voice clips are as loud and clear as they are on the Enterprise-B and the Klingon Bird of Prey. That ship is a beauty and I can't wait to see her lit up.

I would love a side by side from DSTZach.

And alas, the Defiant has been jumped over...again. *sigh*
This so much easier to make being its about the same as the Ent B. Maby they can also still come out with a new mold of something. I want Reliant my self.

The pictures show a beautiful and professional looking subtle gray paint scheme, but the video shows a very toy-like garish blue paint scheme. I have a sinking feeling that the ship will look like the videos (basically same paint shade as the Ent-B and not like the much nicer ship in the photos. What is it with DST and their over saturated blues? (They made the same over saturated blue tampo choice for the TWOK 1701 strongback)
Here is the Enterprise B for comparison. You can see it shares the same blue paint color, just a different application scheme. The upper saucer of the Excelsior and the B have different blue accent painting (wish it was light bluish-gray like in the photos above!) The ends of the nacelles on the Excelsior don't have the caps like the B. And of course the area around the deflector isn't swollen like on the B. I think the deflector looks even better than on the B because of lack of the "shrouding."
Having said all that about the over-saturated blue tampo, this is a definitely a preorder for me. Well done, DST and thank you! (just please think about desaturating the blue details on the Excelsior and the TWOK refit!)
