Die Cast Lighted 1/350th TOS Enterprise (TOMY crowd funded)

You know I will say this...this model is a beast being all diecast! It is really damn heavy! I wonder if for the next ship...if there will be one...should be half diecast and half plastic? Just for weight considerations alone.

Anyone have any thoughts on that?

I don't know. I like that it's all diecast. Sure we all complained about seams and plugs but it's still unique. I doubt they will do mixture of plastic and diecast. I don't think the color would not match very well after painting. Not sure. I would love to see an all diecast TOS Klingon cruiser in scale with the Enterprise. Everyone keep sprouting off about another Enterprise. But let's see something different in this scale. Plus I don't have the room that many of you wealthy guys have ......;)

Man Klingon Battlecruiser would be awesome but I want a refit first. The refit is so universally loved that I think it could easily get backed...I MEAN REALLY EASILY. I'D BE SHOCKED IF THEY FAILED TO GET THE BACKING! Plus the ship is probably next to the Falcon and TOS Enterprise the most iconic ship ever in Sci-fi/fantasy!

Yes, but will the little woman let you ? ;)
Ha! She actually enjoys the stuff I get! Her brothers are geeks so she gets it! She used to love toys when she was young and has really fond memories of them so she has empathy! I mean aren’t we all young at heart! Lol ;)

I have a friend who’s wife gave up the entertainment room for his entire collection which dwarfs mine easy! His wife and my girl are A ok in my book! (y):)

I'll say. I only have a large office and the entire garage. My ball and chain says that is all I get, other than the Deago Falcon in the dining room.

You guys are lucky! ;)
 
UNLESS YOU'RE LEGALLY WED-- in which case you'll have no house to display it in period, and if she's feeling cranky you might lose your old Enterprise too.

She said if I ever mess up she would take the house. So what. Maintenance headache anyway. I miss renting.

She said she would take the kids. So what. You will bring them back shortly.

She said she would take my props. NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll be good sweetie. I promise.
