I had already bought the Enterprise D and loved it. This one I regret buying, it has apparently changed over the various production runs because it is not like the pictures shown here.
- The plastic on the saucer is very translucent, normal ambient room light and shadow pass through it.
- The deflector dish is a solid black piece of plastic, not even coloured blue and does not light up.
- The lighting effects are terrible. Light bleeds through the plastic from the inside, it's particularly laughable in the deflector area - like making the entire bottom section of the ship glow compensates for the deflector dish.
Everyone complaining about the price seriously needs to chill out. The movie hasn't even left theatres yet so obviously this isn't a finalized price. Once a release date is set and is approaching you'll see the customary discount applied like they do with all of their titles. Until then everyone just relax.
What is going on with this pricing lately?! Nearly $40 for double disc Who stories? When they're selling for $25 in the States and our dollar is valued higher? This is ridiculous.
