Holy crap, I walked into a Walmart and found a battle damaged $0.97 mini-Enterprise.  I can't believe it!

 

I'm vacationing in another state and am hitting the jackpot today...Finding all the stuff that I've never seen or is always sold out in my home region.  The new TMNT villains, the Kermit Hallmark ornament, the Kre-O Vengeance...  Everything I look for, I find.  What should I seek out next?

I wonder if the line is totally dead? I mean, the larger HW ships.

I would say that it lives only when there's a new movie which is surprising since I feel this time the HW's ships sold really well? Although again, very hard to find in the UK... Seriously for the next Trek movie they and Hasbro and whoever else has to get their international distribution working out better because so far it's been shocking.

Went into Liverpool shopping today and saw some of the HW ships in Worlds Apart (thanks to which ever member mentioned that store in another thread) and Forbidden Planet. So at least they are starting to get through. Both shops only carried the Bug of Prey and the Excelsior, so I'm guessing the Kelvin and Vengeance are sold out already, which is a bit of a shame. The Excelsior didn't look too good, so I only bought the Bug.

After months of searching I finally found one, it's battle damaged so I'll keep looking for the normal one but I'll be happy with this if I can't find it.

Nice, HW is re-releasing the mini JJ-prise next year in their Retro Entertainment line, this time with a better paint deco. Painted bussards are a big plus, huh? Looking forward to it.

I found two BD ones at the same store on a trip a couple months ago, and the other day I finally found one near my own home region.  But I have still never found a plain one anywhere, and believe me, I have looked.  And looked.  And looked.  Ended up buying one off of eBay.

 

Not sure how I feel about it being in the retro line.  It doesn't seem big enough or well-suited enough to detail for that line.  The BSG Viper is pretty cool and I feel like the Ent is smaller and less impressive.

Ya I found a second battle damaged one that I bought it so I could have one out and keep one in the package.

 

I want a normal one, but can't justify spending $10 on a 97 cent ship.

I have never seen one at retail, are they even out there?

Does anyone know when the new paint deco bussards are coming out?

I happened to find a clean ENT at a local WM simply because I found an unopened box of HWs there once. Never found a BD Ent. on the racks but a friend found one for me.

 

The Retro Entertainment Enterprise is in 2014 Retro Wave A (first 2014 wave) so I expect it'll arrive soon. Good hunting, chaps.

 

 

Also, these "Star Trek Comics" cars are due in Pop Culture Wave P (the third Pop wave of 2014). I think they're pretty uninspired TBH, I wouldn't shell out $5 for each.

 Does this meant the larger line is done for?  Just 4 vehicles release?  I hope Eaglemoss persists with their line.
