Anyone going to get the Enterprise model kit?

Post by LaughingCheese »

I remember having a few models a long time ago, not die cast toys, but actual models you build, of the original TOS enterprise and one or two other things.

I've been thinking about getting an Enterprise E model kit, but they are kind of hard to find lately.

However I just read on trekmovie.com that there will be a model kit of the new Enterprise coming out soon.
During the second half of 2010, Round 2 will be releasing a brand new 1:2500 scale (11.5") snap-together model of the Ryan Church redesigned USS Enterprise from the new Star Trek feature film. While snap together, Round 2 has created their model directly from CGI scans provided by ILM and promises that demanding and talented model makers will not be disappointed by the detailing. Being snap together, the model is accessible to both novice and experienced model makers. The model will also include decals and a pose-able display stand.
So is there anyone here into model kit building and are you going to get this?

I think I may, if its under $50.

EDIT: Dang, why is release date so far away???? :cry:

I will get it to complete my collection. Too bad my Enil, A, and D are long gone (never let a 7 year old play with the models they spent a year building) and my E is the electronic model ( :( I missed the good one by $6.00).

My eventual goal is to have all of the main ships (I love models, especially editing them to be more accurate).

However, I do hope it is reasonably priced.

I might get it, of course when I build one I use my own color scheme for it and I give it a custom name.

Perhaps, snap together is usually code for "piece of shit" though. :(
