I guess they’re aiming exclusively for rich nerds. Sucks because I’d love the Enterprise D one.

As for pricing? A representative from Factory Entertainment revealed through social media that the cost of each approximately-three-foot-long model is expected to start at a $15,000 USD price point — the models will be produced mainly of resin, but will also feature other mixed material in their construction.

Who is the target market for this?

My guess is people who use $100 bills for toilet paper.

Just send them an e-mail reminding them that the economics of the future are somewhat different, and money doesn’t exist in the 24th century.

Oof.

Meanwhile, Star Wars is rocking a line of high quality Bandai kits that cost about $30.

Also Star Wars has LEGO which are legit high quality. Would absolutely kill for an official Star Trek UCS treatment.

They know what they’re doing dribbling these out week by week.

There are still a few we’re hoping will show up.

In the meantime, almost every available display spot has been spoken for.

I have no more room for them and have a serious hole in my budget, but am I still going to try and get a D7 battlecruiser? Yup.

Shared a photo of our Kelvin D7 last week here. Looks great.

My spouse seems to want to decorate every available spot with Klingon vessels. It’s hard to argue. …. Even when extra birds of prey mysteriously appear.
