That's good to hear. 
Looking at the pictures you posted earlier, it looks like you got a good one.

Ok, cool. I should have been a little more clearer, forgot there was a re-release of the Nemesis. I have the re-release with the light up warp engines. Thanks this will actually help in saving me money. I do like to collect, and may get it sooner or later, as the "E" is my favorite but not now when it's practically a copy. Maybe someday, but not now, I have a few other gift ideas I want, lol. Thanks again.
No problem.
And Happy early Birthday! Enjoy celebrating!

Sharing the defects from my Enterprise-B (note click on photos to have a closer look). Something for others to look out for. Upon inspection, I noticed that the pylon connector (pill shape) was placed backwards. That's why it appears offset with the gray metallic base that it rests on. The top portion of connector splits in half. During production, this must've been reversed. Not good DST.
Below is the front. The top portion that overhangs is suppose to be the rear.
And the rear here is supposed to be in the front
A better view from the top and the gap at the rear
The second defect was the panel cover (in the red frame) that I assume covers the screws. It was glued on crooked making the panel jut out or hang as seen in the second photo with the arrow. A minor fixable mistake that shouldn't have been there in the first place.
On the bright side, DST did fix the marking correctly with it saying 'Enterprise' on both sides and not backwards.

So, I finally got mine (Nemesis & First Contact) but I want to know if there was some kind of problem on the Nemesis version that affected more than just my ship, or if this is unique to mine.
The port top edge of my saucer is "warped" in one spot, and looks stressed in another, and in both spots there is an adjacent indentation that is clearly not part of the mold. Almost looks as if some sharp toothed animal (or machine arm) grabbed hold of it too hard or something.
Anybody else have this sort of thing?

Hey Whirlygig, I too have that 'warping' on my Nemesis version but only like the second picture you posted. My warping is around the forward part of the saucer on the right side (looking from above). I just thought of it as a slight molding 'boo-boo' when DST manufactures these ships kinda what is sometimes found in model kits as well. You could probably just take some sandpaper and just sand it down. That's what I plan to do with mine....unless my laziness gets the best of me.
