Dobber Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 Hobby link Japan show 2 new Bandai kits coming! the U.S.S. Voyager and the Enterprise A. Both will be in the same scale as the first Enterprise release but no pictures yet . I wonder wether the Enterprise A will be an updated kit, i.e better fit with some of the wiring pre done, and a slightly different paint scheme, or will it be the same kit with an "A" added on.

VF-19 Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 Knowing Bandai's penchant for recolours, I'd wager that it has the "A" plastered in all the right places. That or it's in a G-3 colour scheme. Now Voyager, I wouldn't mind. I've always liked the Intrepid class ship design, but what I'd really like to see is an Ambassador class (Enterprise-C) design. For some reason, I really really like the design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechamaniac Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 I liked the 1/850 Enterprise refit, but I was pissed when they did the Sovereign class, and cut the scale in half. They should have done it in the same scale!! However, the Intrepid class would be kind if neat in that scale considering that it is actually bigger than the Constitution class refit.

Stamen0083 Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 frakk Bandai. When is Polar Lights making my Voyager? I already preordered the Refit Enterprise. November cannot come soon enough. They were planning to make all Enterprises in 1/1000 scale. I definitely cannot wait for those either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warmaker Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 (edited) Yeah, Bandai really should have made the Enterprises in similar scale. You could then really see the size & technology differences in the eras. What I want to see is a Klingon Bird of Prey.

You have any idea how huge and expensive that would have been? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That NOS Guy Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 You have any idea how huge and expensive that would have been? But it'd be cool! -NOS Or at least that was the logic behind the HGUC GP-03D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connor99 Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Thanks for the tip, DOBBER! I've been wanting to pick up a kit of the VOYAGER for a while, maybe now's the best time, huh?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarensaas Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 I stiil can't believe Polar Lights is going to release this huge1/350 Refit Enterprise ...now THAT is a model! The Perfect Grade version of Trek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodcat Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 My local Suncoast had the NX Polar Lights model in. I would have bought it if I had the cash. I suck at painting though, and that's one thing the Bandai kits have in their favor... I might grab the little 12 dollar Klingon ship though. Be a nice practice kit to paint up and see what I can do.

Jinnai Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Considering there's minor surface detail differences between the refit shown in I, II, and III, and the refit -A in IV, V, VI, you can be guaranteed that Bandai will make a new deflector for the 1701-A, and on top of that, the aztec colouring should be changed, and instead of the "engineering green" as the secondary colour of the kit, it'll be changed to the blue shown on the -A version. The Voyager will be interesting to see. Especially at 1/850. If it doesn't have the markings that Thomas Sasser made for the Limited Revell/Monogram Voyager, then I'm not interested. And Stamen. Without me, you would know nothing about that 1/350 Enterprise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 It always happens... The company they seems to put more than normal work into their product releases stuff I wouldn't buy on a bet, while the stuff I do want is released by companies that just do good quality Case in point Yamato=Macross, Toynami= Mospeada and now, PL=Enterprises, Bandai=Voyager Cyc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
