Classic USS Enterprise 1:350 Premiere Edition from Polar Lights/Round 2 - PREORDER RESERVATION

 

[Onigiri]

Huh...all these people complaining about this kit not getting released...people look at the thread and no replies...oh well, maybe there isnt any interest in this kit after all.

 

[tgreco]

any idea why it's double what the A cost? (actually close to triple, the original release was $55 I think)

and it says:
This is expected in stock in late 2011

I love it, and I'll buy the kit, but until they show some pics, not much to get excited about...

 

[Smiling Demon]

Yeah, the price is an object for me. Would love to have one but "Ouch".
I bought 2 NX-01's and 2 Ent-A's and I will be lucky if I can get this one!

 

[12Rogues]

I would love it, but not at $120-150. Just too much.

 

[division 6]

IMPORTANT NOTE: Round 2 is soliciting orders for this model, but they deny that it has been approved, announced, or otherwise put into production. It is subject to delay or cancellation. Specific details are unknown and subject to change. Price is subject to change.

Prices on models are getting outrageous these days.

 

[vaderdarth]

perhaps it comes with a lighting kit or something and maybe in internal armature. Here's to hoping!!!

 

[Wolvster1]

The " biggie " for me here is this, there is NO official
plans to make this.. I want a 350 TOS as much as the
next guy! But if all this preorder thing is, is Round 2 trying
to gauge enough interest to see IF it's worth spending the
money on it to actually do it then I'm not getting excited about it...

To me, it just still means it's not getting made.... :unsure

I'd love this kit, but here in the UK (London) the Polar Lights 1/350 Refit Enterprise costs a jaw dropping £99.99 (or approximately $160 !!!!)

Even Moebius Models' Moon Bus is £50 ($80)

I would dearly love a Classic Enterprise and the C-57D but plastic models of this size are prohibatively expensive here !

 

[phase pistol]

I don't understand, is this Culttvman doing this on their own? If Round2 hasn't announced the kit, how the Ef do they know how much to charge? :confused

I mean, if this is an "official" case of Round2 putting out "feelers" through Culttvman, then fine. OK I will sign up. But is this just CTVM acting on their own? Can anybody confirm? I guess I could try emailing R2 directly...

I kind of like to know that a product will actually exist before I agree to buy it. :lol

I read this the other day

Hot News from Round 2...1:350 Enterprise - HobbyTalk

I regret to inform everyone that NO OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT HAS BEEN MADE.

The "news" is essentially a book keeping error. I was asked for my plan for the year, not knowing that that information would be used to generate a distributor price list. When I found that’s what it would be used for, I advised that late year product especially this one is extremely tentative and probably shouldn’t be on there. I was told it would only be given to distributors and never be for public consumption and that distributors were used to the schedule moving around or being adjusted. Though the kit is on our plan, we have not gotten approval on costs. If the kit were to be taken off of our 2011 plan, we would insert other new smaller kits of subjects to be determined. We will announce at Wonderfest 2011 whether the 1:350 kit will be released in 2011, 2012 or dropped from consideration altogether.

I'm going to find a cave...

Also, want to rear this thread over at HT...

Make Your Voice Heard! Order Now! - HobbyTalk

It's pretty much EXACTLY what I thought... There is NO kit
on their schedule to be made.. There's the " possibility " it
will be made in later 2011 if they see enough support by way of
pre-orders... :unsure

 

[phase pistol]

CultTVman put up a ton of preorders from several companies... some of these kits are pretty remarkable! Reissued AMT TOS D7 Klingon Battlecruiser. 2001 Orion Space Clipper (I'm guessing a reissue of the old Aurora kit). A new TOS Enterprise kit "glow version from Tholian Web" which I guess is the ship in glow-in-the-dark plastic?

And what is up with the "Strange Change Time Machine"?! Before I followed the link I thought they meant THIS

I had that as a kid, I loved that thing! I would totally buy a repop. Mm.... smell that burning plastic. thumbsup

Lots of Trek... and yes it looks like they still have the '09 Abramsprise on tap...

Glow in the dark Defiant...

Klingons off the starboard bow!

And yes the infamous Romulan Bird O Prey...
