So the cube lights up?



All subscriber bonus Cubes light up, but the Japanese version looks a million times better than the version the rest of the world gets

Regarding the shuttles, they're apparently going world-wide, don't know when yet.

And about the Borg Cubes, I've no idea other than to say that they've made improvements to the ships as they've gone along (I mean, corrected mistakes and the like when new territories have gotten them). They've either done that in this case, or, it's something to do with DeAgostini being the Japanese distributor. In terms of that latter scenario, I doubt it has anything to really do with that, but as no other territory has gotten this version of the Cube, then I put it down here as a possibility.

If its true everyone will be getting the shuttles, i'll be pretty happy.

 

The cube I don't really care about since its just a cube, it does look a lot better, but borg ships to me are boring.

Bought the Delta Flyer and Romulan Drone from a seller on Amazon..... The Drone is simply one of the FINEST Eaglemoss ships to date !!!  The Delta Flyer is one of my favorite auxillary craft so I may be biased but its also one of the best to date !!

Those look fantastic Prometheus!  I can't wait for the Flyer.  I'm barely about to receive the Hideki & 1st Vulcan ship I think.

The Flyer is almost perfect IMHO.... The Drone is just ridiculous.... Super detailed tampos and tons of really elaborate antennas .... The only issue is the antennas are REALLY delicate.

Here's a terrible photo of the Raptor, next to another little ship of the same scale (roughly!):

mcIUr1N.jpg

 

The Klingon and Romulan ship designs from Enterprise are lovely. The Raptor and D5, and John Eaves' slight re-design of both Bird's of Prey, are lovely. The Romulan BoP in particular, looks very '24th century', and looks great next to the Warbirds.

 

 

Pasteur's up next, can't wait!

I can't wait to get that delta flyer, it's taking forever for EM to ship it and the Andorian cruiser...

Mentioning the Pasteur made me wonder, is EM going to do a Daedalus Class? I've always wanted a model of it.

I never understood that funky front window pattern on the Delta Flyer. I know it was supposed to have retro sci-fi elements a la Tom Paris, but wouldn't all those weird lines make it tough to see where you're going?

The pilots seat is where the big opening on the bottom left is, shouldn't have any trouble seeing.

Daedalus class - I haven't seen a mention of it, but I'd say it's quite likely to be in at some point.

I'm curious to see what federation ships are planned for issues 80+. For example, the Nebula and Miranda class ships are ripe for a slight re-do (Phoenix and Saratoga etc), and I have a feeling that even though it hasn't hit 5000 signatures, we'll get a model of the Titan, which I'd be fine with. I don't mind some non-canon ships showing up (NX-01.5 - which is sort've canon lol), just as long as they're not from Star Trek Online (just speaking for me personally there, but I really despise the art-style and design directions in that game).

Either way, plenty more still to come. I can't wait to one day have every First Contact ship sitting together on a shelf. :)

 

What's one ship/vessel/station that hasn't been announced/confirmed yet, that definitely appeared in a show/movie, that you'd like them to make? I honestly hope that once all the JJ ships are done, we get a nice big model of Earth Spacedock.

I also would love to see the multi nacelled JJ Ships.

I want the New Orleans class, Ive always kinda liked it's design.

Also, the Achilles class from that DS9 game.

The only STO ship I'd want is the 24th century version of the Constitution class, I forget it's name... Excalibur Class.

Wow!!! The flyer looks amazing. Easily one of my favorite Star Trek ships. I can't wait to pick one up.

I'd love to see them somehow tackle the Borg uni-complex as a special issue!
