Yeah, there's unfortunately zero chance they reach their goal.

Dear Star Trek fan,
At TOMY, we are very passionate about bringing quality products and collectibles to our customers. We also understand and appreciate the passion of Star Trek fans, and the collectibles they want. For these reasons, we have decided to extend the deadline of the pre-order period for the 32” Star Trek Enterprise die cast metal replica to July 24 at 9PM PDT.In addition to the extended deadline, we have also lowered the target from 5,000 backers to 2,500 backers so we can bring this amazing collectible to the fans who have supported it from day

A fighting chance. May have to buy into a second one.
We may go up into the biggest ball of fire since the last sun in these parts exploded, but we've got to take that one in ten thousand chance!

Hopefully they have some way to display it at San Diego. Though ending the campaign on SDCCs last day isn’t wise if they do so. But I’ll be happy if they are there. Preview night brings a lot of media coverage on new products and that Star Trek Ten Forward bar thing would be great if they are too late to get into the convention proper.

yeah they really need to have this on display at SDCC which would convince a lot of new buyers
and it would be wise to give attendees at least a couple days after the con to do so, life is hectic during the con
plus the publicity the con would give it, honestly it would have been smarter to LAUNCH the campaign at the con and let it run for a month afterward
hope the extend it again after the con to let that happen
They can hype it, SDCC deadline extension exclusive!!! Lucky you! Don’t miss this final chance!!! Etc etc. Let’s just hope they are there.

MY GOD!!!! No freaking way!!!!!!!! This is awesome news!!!! There is some hope in the world!!!!! Man this thing might actually make it!!! I hope the demand exceeds the 2500 backers though!
I would like to see some outright enthusiasm so as to encourage TOMY to make more ships in the future!!!
I'm sick and tired of seeing companies like QMX charging thousands and thousands of dollars for Replicas like the Enterprise. Granted I know those are high quality models made by American artisans but there has to be a lower line of higher end replicas that other fanboys can afford! TOMY could be the company to answer that call!
I would love to see a Refit enterprise, SNW enterprise, and even a reliant and Klingon battle cruiser produced someday by TOMY!!! Man that would be awesome!!

You could sell either and make money I’m sure. Or mod the markings and make the ISS Enterprise!!!

Lucky *******! Lol! I wish I had the opportunity to have bought the MR Enterprise back then!! But unfortunately I was only working for a short time. Its great that you will have the opportunity to own two great replicas that will only go up in value!
Hopefully TOMY will make a great replica equal to the MR version…I can only hope!

Here is a new video people!!! This thing is gonna be amazing!!!
While the ToS is my favorite Enterprise - I do agree that they might have been more successful with a Refit... but if they did a refit there would be endless debate on the paint scheme, interference colors, and as first painted VS. ILM repaints etc etc. that now that I think of it am glad I'm not witnessing.

Maybe but none of those matter for one of us that doesn't have one yet! And this price point is great for what it offers!
