Jenolan! Eff yeah! Also cool to see the Rhode Island, I'll have to get that one. Always had a soft spot for the Nova.

I'll be getting a jumbo Defiant and Voyager definitely, but I completely agree with both of you (especially regarding the D model). According to Ben ages ago now, the C will be getting a big overhaul to correct its many problems. If it does, as well as taking away the 'Yamaguchi upgrades', I hope they paint the outer rim of the deflector dish because that would look really dodgy blown up to this bigger scale.

[Alteran195]

The C would be tempting if they fixed it since it's my favorite. But even it isn't a guarantee for me.

News out of London comic con (round up courtesy of Darth Duranium at rebelscum).

 

Confirmed list of Special Issues:

#9 - JJ Swarm ship
#10 - Space Station K-7
#11 - USS Enterprise XCV-330
#12 - JJ USS Enterprise (Beyond refit - not the A)
#13 - JJ Klingon Warbird

Also confirmed, jumbo Voyager.

 

Pictures from the show include the Smuggler's Ship:

 

The Swarm Ship from Beyond:

Beyond refit and jumbo Voyager sound sweet!

[hobsgrg]

I had hoped with K-7 that might mean Earth Spacedock might happen but doesn't look like it   . Jumbo Voyager will be great though.

[Alteran195]

Don't care about the swarm ship or k7.

The ring ship Enterprise is a definite purchase for me, as are the Beyond Refit and Klingon Warbird.

Jumbo Voyager will also be a purchase. I wonder if that's coming out after the E?

[Alteran195]

I'd be very surprised if we didn't get an Earth Spacedock special at some point.

We know they're making an A, it wouldn't surprise me if Earth Spacedock came before or after it.

[Jay K]

Yeah Hobs, I'd say Ben's definitely heard people want the space stations, so even though it isn't announced yet, I'd say Spacedock is a future definite.

[Alteran195]

So they've done the TOS Enterprise, D, E, and now Voyager for jumbos.

I'd imagine the Defiant and NX-01, and Refit/A will come after since they are the only other hero ships that haven't been made.

Then maybe go back and finish the Enterprise line?

I wonder how the Jumbo NX-01 will compare in size to the AA/DST NX-01. Sounds good to me as long as I get my jumbo Enterprise-J.

[1701D]

I'd say the jumbo NX will be the same size as the NX refit

[hobsgrg]

Surely jumbo NX has to be bigger than NX refit otherwise how could they justify charging over twice as much for it?

[1701D]

More diecast?

[Alteran195]

No way would the jumbo NX be the same size as the Refit, the Refit is only 8 inches long.

If the jumbos are around 11 inches long, then it'd be about the same size as the DST one.

[1701D]

I'm all for an 11 inch die cast NX-01

I'm still not sure how to upload photos to here but this was on twitter:

[Alteran195]

It still doesn't look right to me, better with the paint between the collectors, but still off.

I still find DST's E to be much better looking.

I dunno it looks pretty accurate. Not 100% but pretty close.

Those pictures are from Dave, the guy who runs the Eaglemoss fan facebook group. He attended on Sunday, and took a load of photos:

If that doesn't work, just request to join the group. Click this link for a shot off the starboard bow:

The thickness of the saucer spoils it for me, as does one other thing - DST's version. I agree with Alteran, it's too good.
