  1. I already e-mailed them so we'll see. Like I said, QC is an issue.
  2. Dunno, but that's how mine looks. Off to e-mail Eaglemoss customer sevice...
  3. And with those extra photos you've confirmed for me. I think there was a manufacturing error. Left side, top and bottom, lack of darkened windows. Exactly like mine.
  4. Is it just me or is only half of that saucer section painted? There's a conspicuous lack of darkened windows on one side... is the top the same?
  5. I don't have too many. There are over 100 so I can't comment on all of them either. The D and E were both good, though the E is so small it loses some details. I like the Vor'Cha and the K'Tinga too. The TOS D5 and Romulan Warbirds are both really plain but then they were in the shows too so they're accurate and are done well. I don't know if it's possible to get the Titan anymore but I do like that one. Unfortunately a lot of the classic federation ships can suffer because they can't get the nacelles straight, so the NX, and Constitution/Miranda ships can be crooked. Though they're also brittle being so small, my TOS Ent showed up with the left pylon snapped off. Ordering from Eaglemoss directly is the best way to mitigate that because they'll replace them. They don't always have everything available though. If you want reviews and closeups for ALL of them look up IrishTrekkie on youtube. He's jovial, and a bit forgiving imo, but you get an idea what all of them are like. So what is your impression of the C?
  6. Having the 301 Tampoed on the wing would look way better than using the decals.
  7. No, that change is also stupid. Exhaust ports are on lots of things. The reason why it was hit was because Luke, with the help of Obi-Wan, force nudged a torpedo down into the tube. Otherwise they all would have died. It should have been an impossible shot otherwise.
  8. Looks like the Brown and Orange Wolverine is next to be released. Just got confirmation from Bbts it's about to ship. Would be nice if yhey spaced out the characters a bit. I just got the other Wolvie last month. Would have made more sense to release the classic Spider-Man given he's been on preorder since 2016.
  9. Yeah, I'm worried about the Phase 2 Ent not having aligned nacelles. Though I have noticed they don't always get the saucer sections straight sometimes either.
  10. Was it that or did you ask me how I find out about the new/upcoming releases? That's just a combination of e-mail updates for pre-orders at BigBadToyStore and complete dumb-ass luck, like the fact I just checked the Eaglemoss website the other day and saw the pre-order for the Ent-C Prototype was up. The Prototype C there I had to order directly from Eaglemoss themselves, I haven't seen it available anywhere else. It's on the way as of today. Other's I'll order from BigBadToyStore though, like the pre-order I have for the Phase 2 Enterprise, which I honestly haven't seen anywhere else actually. I'm just waiting on BBTS to ship it in the back half of the month. And the USS Phoenix is already in the mail. You do have to watch out for Eaglemoss though, they have horrific QC issues sometimes. You will have things arrive that are broken or miss-aligned. If you order direct from them they'll replace it though.
  11. I'm all over these for my niece and nephew. They'll love them.
  12. Well I guess we don't need to question how much detail is in that C now.
  13. Dayum, concept C already shipped. We'll find out the quality sooner than expected.
  14. I'd pay money for the art.
  15. Once the Monster sells out, or Bandai some how tanks, then it'll be the most "popular" and expensive thing ever.
  16. Nah, it sat in stores for quite awhile. Long enough to ponder if we wanted to buy two and flounder on it for a year. It was the same with the VF-11C. It goes for $500+ now, but it languished in shops until people found out Yamato was going under then they all rushed to buy.
  17. I really don't think the 11 will ever be seen again. They both sold abysmally the first go around. So much so my second and third C's only cost $111 each at HLJ. Plus they really need a redesign at this point.

    Hi-Metal R

    sh9000, you're on bat. Lol
  19. It gets worse in March and April, VF-31A (well, for me because I bought three) and the SDF-1.
  20. This is one of those special type releases that aren't technically cannon (only the un-detailed side-view was depicted on the wall of one of the conference rooms) so an XL version is about 99.9% unlikely. I'll bet an XL version of the cannon C isn't going to happen. The first C release was lacking details like the impulse drive unfortunately. The test images here look like they've got more of the details on the concept version correct though. I pre-ordered, it's unique and not likely we'll see something like that again. Textile cape and some of the undergarment. They have come a long way from the 80's... well, unless it's made by Hasbro then it's exactly like the soft goods from the 80's. There is more to the new figure than the cape though, that Vader you got is undersized for the rest of the line and is oddly proportioned.
  21. Well, Mr K definitely wants to. The problem is they can only cater to the Japanese market and they aren't fans of the SDFM version. The rest of the world is.
