Yeah the Eaglemoss ships have pretty spotty QC. I bought them during a sitewide sale and are my desktop "whooshing" toys so I'm not quite as picky about their QC failures. I already have nice illuminated models of almost all the Enterprises already, and these are not taking their place. ^_^

I'd love to have a setup like this! but with refit, A, Excelsior, B, C, D & E. And possibly the Concept C.

I finally caved and both these two books from Mandarake after seeing @valkyriepilot's post a few pages ago. I assumed this is a 1992 reprint since it didn't came with a negative film. I totally forgot about the Gold Book before but now I have one too. ^_^

Nice,

I had Kawamori Autograph the design works book @ AX a few years back.   And I was lucky enough to find the Goldbook on letgo!

Got three packages in one day! Two from NY, and one from HLJ. Very excited to check out Chogokin Big O, I missed out on the initial release and the accessory set, so as soon as this went up for PO I snatched it. Dragonball Goku is a GREAT little figure, lots of articulation despite his squat and accurate proportions, plus he has a lot of accessories.

Congrats on getting the HM Super Parts. Those seem to be getting scarce.

And the books look pretty cool.

I did order and just recieved a few painted deck crew figures (Fujimi plastic set) to get them on my also new TSM carrier deck. The figures are really bigger than the stated 1:72 scale, between 1:60 and 1:55 I would say and the carrier deck was a bit warp, but that wasn’t a deal breaker. I am very happy with both and the new display perspectives !

Thanks for all ^_^ Hope 31a will be not worse then 25a (:

If you can, get the super parts. I think it really improves the valk (which is rather uniform in color).

 Orindlt, your massive hoard inspired me to take some pictures of my new Eaglemoss XL Enterprise, so this flood of images is your fault! :)

And, as I was handling it, the deflector dish fell off AGAIN!  GRRRRR!

Anyway, here we go.  I'll spoiler most of these so those who don't want a flood of the Enterprise can avoid it.

I took that picture and felt there needed to be a Klingon marauding around, so I took it again with extra bonus Klingon DLC!

The Diamond Select Enterprise B  is the same scale as the Eaglemoss XL Enterprise, so I had to do a couple of shots of that.

It's pretty clear in the first shot, but you can REALLY see how crooked the deflector spike is here.

for a TOS Enterprise, it looks quite smart! Not a fan of the display stand design though.. I'm sure they could have come up with something better and less obstructive.

Eaglemoss sent me the USS Aventime... for my money, the most gorgeous star ship I've seen in a long time... this should be the next Enterprise design after E... very good model, all tampo is spot on and engines are straight. Great detail other than the plain blue deflector dish, but that's a nitpick really...

They already made an F and it wasn't that

Damn, that USS Aventime might be my new favorite design next to the Enterprise D from TNG. (USS Voyager is coo too!)

That model looks great but I greatly dislike the balance in all Aspects and angles.  It’s not a hero ship IMO.

It’s a shame the deflector dish sucks because that XL Ent looks pretty great.

Yikes! Sorry to hear about the crooked deflector dish. Did you buy it direct from Eaglemoss? They should replace it if you email them about it.

TOS Enterprise is so far the best of the XL line. Eaglemoss doesn't seem to have problems lining up the window paint when there are far fewer of them. :rolleyes:

Hoping for an XL refit Enterprise that fixes the problems of the smaller release (which they did address with the A). Namely the wrong color and complete lack of detail.

Mmmm not really digging the design of the Aventine. I also don't like how the concept C looks from the front/back. It makes me think of an overweight duck struggling to swim. :wacko:

Anyone pick up any Discovery ships yet?

Ok, finally a toy to place up here. (Arrived Friday)
Got this second hand off  fellow MWF member @aaajin. He even threw in a display base.

Here it is ready to unleash its’ full payload, later I’m going to move it to my bookcase in fighter mode but needs some cleaning first.

@orindlt: Correction there. It's not Samurai Maul that you quoted, its Sohei (Monk) Maul. Honestly, Maul looks like an Oni as pictured. 

Got this Thursday morning from Jungle (used) and aiming for the 171EX. Debating if I want to per-order the SOC Dragon Caesar or not (I have a soft spot for kaiju(s) all thanks to the Gojra franchise). :lol:  

Edit: Corrected and clarified.

I had time to open one thing and choose the Eva. I was very impressed, Revoltech improved on the original design by adding a revoltech joint to the hip. The original figures could only move the legs back and forth, no side to side. The added joints fixes that so it acts like a universal. It does not come with the same accessories as the original but the lance lance is great and it comes with plenty of hands. 20180203_071509.thumb.jpg.053167ee6fa70e1e12e45c900a1bf572.jpg

And they aren't using they usual revoltech stands, they have switch to using the figma stands. Got to find some time to open my new Hi-Metal R!
