Oh, that sounds like something up his alley. It would only be held back, if they felt they couldn't get enough buyers to support it.
I hope he can put out figures more often than DST. I was going to consider the one:12 figures, until I saw how small they looked, at that price point. I'll probably be buying these figures.

I plan to collect these. I'm impressed with both Kirk and Picard's likenesses on these. In my opinion this is the best Kirk sculpt that I've ever seen. Articulation looks to be adequate as well. The best thing is - no rubbery shirts! Between these and Mega Construx Mini Figures (provided we get more than just Picard and Borg) I am one happy collector. The only thing that would make me happier is if Funko went back and did with Star Trek 3 3/4" figures what they are currently doing with Classic Batman and Twin Peaks!

The oversized Shenzou and Discovery are on list but beyond that I was hoping we'd hear about more jumbos besides the hero ships.

Eaglemoss XL collection?

If you read it carefully that is just talking about the jumbo sized ships that have already been released, with this being all too literally true "As the title suggests, Eaglemoss’ fantastic Starship collectibles will be getting an upsizing, almost doubling in size" as they are literally just existing model upsized

I dont think so.

The jumbos started with the original, and go for $75.

This article is saying it starts with the D, and they will go for $60.

I think its just the jumbo sizes weve already seen released. They followed the same order as the ones already released or pending released.

Weird that they’re starting a separate collection for the jumbos when they’re already part of the normal subscription.

The jumbos aren't part of the normal subscription you had to buy them separately, sounds like they are going to do a separate subscription for them

So I got my jumbo Enterprise-E today. Not really much more I can say that hasn't already been said. Beautiful model, LOTS of metal, it could have been an amazing model but stupid errors not fixed mean it isn't.

I swear there have been people here that have mentioned getting the jumbos like they do specials.

Yup, one of them was me.  I was of the understanding that the jumbos were not part of the subscription, so I ordered the jumbo TOS Enterprise through the shop in December 2016.  Then in June (a couple months or so after I received it) I got an e-mail saying one was going to be sent to me as part of my subscription (US).  I had to e-mail them back to say "don't send it."

 

I have not received any notifications about the other jumbos, though.

I don't believe they are supposed to be part of the subscription, they aren't in the UK and I believe wouldn't be in US if Eaglemoss UK were still running the USA subscription. However whoever is running the US subscription now I'm not sure they are running it correctly. I've seen people on here report various screw-ups just with the regular specials so it wouldn't surprise me if them automatically sending people the jumbo TOS was something they weren't supposed to be doing.

Jenolan looks awesome, have been waiting for that since the 90s for some manufacturer to do it, and the jumbo E might get me into the jumbo models.

Just got a shipment email for issue 93, ECS Horizon, which had been skipped over back in May.  For me, that leaves just 96 & 97 as still to be shipped on the regular subscription, where I'm up to 102/103.  Also outstanding are any potential specials that I should have received as a sub (My last special received was the NX-01 refit back in May 2016).

Preview day, here's Shuttle Pack 3:

Hi-res: http://i.imgur.com/esXDbxJ.jpg

 

The models are all gorgeous (especially that Travel Pod for me!), but the Argo's colour is...based off of its appearance in the film, complete with 'piss-filter warmth'. I know Ben has said in the past that the colours are based on how they appeared on screen (which has been a bone of contention for some, myself included), but this is the worst offender so far. That being said, as I've stopped collected the line now, I am still looking forward to this yearly little box of goodies. :)
