Awesome! While I like the Centaur I thought it was odd that DS9 was introducing kit-bashed designs based on the Miranda & Excelsior classes. They had access to great models of Nebula, Ambassador, and Constellation class ships that I would have liked to have seen more.
I made the observation that we ended up getting more new and cool Fed ship designs from Voyager than we did from DS9 and Voy was on the other side of the galaxy.

Right, I can't corroborate this myself as Ben seems to tweet what seems like a thousand people a day, telling them to follow his personal account, but according to Darth_Duranium at rebelscum, it seems he's confirmed that the rumoured plaques will be coming next year for subscribers in the UK and USA, and for general sale on their e-store in those countries as well. Six in total, he's announced five of them already, and they are:
Voyager
Defiant (DS9)
TOS Enterprise
NX-01
Enterprise-E
One of them I'll definitely be buying. 
The shuttles and TOS Mirror 1701 will be available via the same methods for the same places (subscribers and e-store in UK and US).

Just got notice that the D4 is coming to the US next month, can't say i'm terribly excited for it, but it looks decent enough.
I also got notice my C and the Malon ship are on the way, can't wait for the C, and at this point I probably won't be displaying the Malon ship due to space issues.

So I'm assuming they will be charging for the dedication plaques? I wonder how much they will sell them for.

I can stop I just don't want to.

I got the same email today. No Borg cube bonus though. Which issues are you up to?

I got an email for the D4 "special" and shipping confirmation for issue 43 & 44 (Species 8427 bioship and Intrepid). Nothing about the Borg cube gift.

Sigh. Still no Borg Cube. But I did get a notice about the D4 and the "C" and the Malon ship are on their way. With the wait for these specials I've kind of forgotten... is the Kelvin next?

Pretty sure it has been confirmed somewhere, Memory-Alpha lists it as special 6, and they are usually up to date on their information on the collection. Thetrekcollective also has it listed as special 6.

No no, the NX-01R is confirmed to be the special after the Kelvin, and it's due around Christmas in the UK. As a special, it'll be much bigger than the regular ships. Doug Drexler himself has finished the model (after what happened with 'Jenn DeSalle'), and he's providing brand new renders for the magazine.

I knew you'd know for sure, pretty sure you keep the most tabs on the collection out of anyone here.No no, the NX-01R is confirmed to be the special after the Kelvin, and it's due around Christmas in the UK.

lol thanks
It might be a bit of over-compensating in terms of a certain other company not giving one iota of information on their products. 
Also, I should point out that other than checking in on twitter, my main sources are their facebook page (people on there who keep on top of the latest news), and occasionally, Rebelscum's Trek thread. Those guys are as good as us lot in terms of keeping up with all the news.
Will work for toys.

Rebelscum has a Trek thread?! I only go there for their SW stuff,lol! Better start wandering around a bit more.
Still waiting for my J.....please?,before I die? lol
J-R!

It'll be at least a year away, possibly 18 months! lol
Seriously though, I'd love to see it get announced soon, purely just to see how they'd do it. Drexler is working on the NX-01R, the Romulan Shuttle from In The Pale Moonlight, and then the J.

It's smart to keep the boxes for a possible move! I just didn't have the space. I already keep too many Hot Toys boxes around.
Thanks for the info about the next specials. I didn't know the NX refit was after Kelvin! That's exciting.
Now if we could only get the $$%# Titan made.
