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

Please don't keep us in suspense. We want to see the portals (screw covers) on the starboard side and the seams on the saucer and nacelles. We don't mind if you take pictures on your kitchen table. Looks you might be our September Tomy update.
They should be visible in pictures 4 and 5 attached to my previous post, essentially though they look like the pictures from the last update.
 
Thanks! At least now, I don’t need to be the one to confirm the bad news.

I never really looked at the prior photos, but those seams are worse than I thought they would be.

Oh well, looks like I’ll be displaying it from the other side.

Yes, I think I'll end up displaying it that way as well - my last picture is a shot from the port side and it looks much better there, though even on the starboard side the visibility will depend on lightning, distance and so on.
 
Overall I'm really happy with it however (though like Phoenixblazes, I'm not as discerning as others might be).
Thanks for posting pictures! I'll be happy to get mine as well!

Some people will be very upset because we were clearly told the seams and plugs holes would be filled and cleaned up, which they aren't. I'm unhappy with that as well, but still think it looks nice overall and makes a great display.
 
Lying scumbag pieces of crap. Never dealing with them or crowdfunding again. Looks nothing like their original pics. Seams and plugs would be fixed. Never showed the saucer attached needing an additional post stand in original pics.

Go back and look at the pics in post #1 compared to what we are getting.

I had faith, obviously misplaced.
 
Pics on their website right now. No seems, much better paint job. Burn in Hell Tomy

How do the lit nacelle caps look?

I think the weathering looks terrible.

Funny how after all their work with Gary Kerr, they managed to put screw holes on the filming side of the ship. With all the so-called attention to detail, you would think they would have put them on the port side (unfinished side) non-filmed side of the ship. Sounds like China to me.

When I was young my mother operated a cake shop from our home. She once ordered a cake pan of the United States, made in China. The only problem: the pan was reversed so that after you baked the cake and turned the pan over to release the cake, Florida and the East coast was where California and the west coast should have been. I've never forgotten that.

I think the aging looks terrible.
They're darker than I would have liked, and darker than some of the earlier pictures I believe.
