Eaglemoss Star Trek Starship, BSG & other starships Collection

[Sanity is Optional]

Eaglemoss apparently decided they wanted to make another Rocinante, before the first one even shipped:

XL Rocinante (FYI, some of the images are repeats of the normal version's)

Two same-angle comparison shots:

That one is going to be quite big, 12.8 inches. Pulled the trigger on it as I passed on the standard one. Hoping for a Donnager too.

Damn I'm in for an XL Roci, the only Eaglemoss ship I have is the XL Orville and it's pretty nice. Once BBTS puts it up I'll grab one there, add it to my Pile of Loot. 

[Sanity is Optional]

I'm currently deciding if I want the XL, since I already ordered the normal sized one (2 actually, one for a friend).

It does look like the XL has better colors and texture, so it's very tempting.

Where did you order it from? I don't see it on BBTS. Thanks

You can order it direct from Eaglemoss.

Yup, ordered direct from Eaglemoss. It already takes long enough for them to get things in stock without having to wait even longer for BBTS to get things. I’m still waiting on the Armored Galactica and the XL Sulaco. Dates for them have been pushed back a little already. It’s pretty common with Eaglemoss unfortunately.

Thank you gents.

I ended up canceling the small one I had on PO through BBTS.

Looks good. 

[Axelay]

I got the first release, but this new one... very tempting. I wish it was XL scale, though.

Yeah, it’s clearly larger than the original Titan but not XL scale like the Cerritos. Weird. 
 

Here are some comparison shots at similar angles:
 

 

biggest difference I see besides scale and coloring is the different Bussard collector shroud. I can see some other details and refinements but that is the biggest difference. I want to get this but I also don’t want them to just turn around and immediately release an XL like they are doing with the Roccinante.

[Mommar]

I was trying to understand why the Livery was so different/terrible until I realized this is some of that Lower Decks trash.

[Podtastic]

Now Daggits.

Battlestar Galactica Muffit the Daggit Figurine (eaglemoss.com)

This isn't on my list, in fact it looks unfinished to me.

But I do hope we get an enthroned Imperius Leader and an IL Series at some point.

 

[Dobber]

IIRC the Galactica series is done after the Astral Queen release.

[Tking22]

XL Roci is up at BBTS, I grabbed one there.

Based on?

Eaglemoss announcement sent in email to collectors in Dec. 

Correction: I misspoke, it is the final ship. Whether the figures continue I don’t know.

Well it is kind of random if they make a daggit but none of the colonials.

It's a little sad that their not doing the Cylon Tanker, but at least they did the classic Colonial shuttle.

Be nice if they did some Buck Rogers ships. I could use an Eaglemoss Warhawk.

[Dobber]

I’d love some Buck Rogers too. Thunder fighters, Marauders, and Hawks ship would be so cool. Make it the Glen Larson collection.

Chris

[Chronocidal]

Wouldn't mind Buck Rogers, but I'd be far more interested in some good quality Babylon 5 ships.  They've got a pretty massive variety to choose from too.

B5 ships would get me to part with my money for sure.  The only that would make me part with it faster would be ships from Spiral War: Liberators.

[Thom]

With the B5 series reboot, models may not be so far off.

[sqidd]

I'd be all in on Buck Rogers

 

[Dobber]

I just finished a Warlock class Destroyer and a Hyperion Class Heavy Cruiser models and now working on one of my favorites the Omega Class Destroyer. I still want MOOOORE! Lol

The positive is that Stracynski is still in charge. The bad news is that it's being developed for The CW.

It's a TV network born on the heels of its 2 defunct predecessors, UPN and WB, back in 2006.  By their own admission, with very few exceptions -- which almost invariably degenerate into it, it is pathologically focused on identity politics and spreading "The Message" in everything they produce.  Oddly enough, their strategy has NEVER turned a profit, and now ViacomCBS is either considering, or actively attempting (depends on the source), to sell that albatross.  In short, it's a wasteland.

And also more “teen” drama type shows. Which is Ok in small doses but to bank most of a series on the model gets very tiresome. IMO

JMS has already come out saying he is updating the story to reflect more modern politics etc. which is sad because after rewatching the original it still very much reflects the modern day climate of internal conflicts, authoritarianism, mouthpiece media manipulation etc. Wherever you may fall on the political spectrum it applies and works for most as we see the “other”side in the “bad” guys and our own in the “good” guys. Unfortunately, too often in todays story telling there is never any nuance and is always told as “my political side good your side is bad. “ and nothing can be left open to interpretation.

The sooner the better. I'm not in the mood for reflexively headbutting the TV screen ever again. 🤕
