Star Trek: The Official Starships Collection

  • View history

Star Trek: The Official Starships Collection was a British magazine / display model collectible partwork publication and product line that was published by Eaglemoss Collections under its Hero Collector imprint and overall supervision of Project Manager Ben Robinson . Authorized and licensed by Paramount Consumer Products , it had been available in a substantial number of countries worldwide.

Each fortnightly issue included a hand-painted [1] ABS and die-cast metal scaled replica of a starship from the Star Trek universe. Notably, an unparalleled variety of ship designs have been produced as display models for this line, many for the first time, beyond the scope of all other mass-production manufacturers. Eaglemoss' Star Trek starship model line had become by far the largest starship model line(s) of any entertainment media franchise ever released by a single company – especially when taking the near-identically executed follow-up Discovery , Online , Universe , and Lower Decks spin-off/sister collections into account as well. Robinson himself has later intimated that a Star Trek starship model collection of this scope is highly unlikely to be surpassed, or even emulated, anytime soon, " I think it’s pretty clear that there are lots of ships wh [ich] ere we did that were really obscure, that nobody’s going to make again. " [91]

Robinson and his team utilized original CGI studio models for reference whenever they are available. [2] A Star Trek Fact Files veteran, reference book author, and custodian of his own Star Trek production art archive, Robinson oversees the preparation of the magazines and the selection, commissioning, and decoration of the starship miniatures. John Ainsworth, Hero Collector's Development Manager, assumed many of Robinson's roles for the production of the miniatures after the first 120 issues.

Robinson has also acted as a co-author and co-editor of the magazine content, which consists of a mix of "in-universe" articles and real world production POV articles dealing with the design and usage of the models in question [3] , alongside Marcus Riley (another former member of the Fact Files team) and Mark Wright , and continued to contribute starship articles, [92] much of which eventually finding its way into the company's lines of spin-off reference book series.

Many production-used 3D studio models have been adapted for use as miniatures. Alongside studio assets, starship designers including Rob Bonchune , Adam Buckner , David Carson , Dan Curry , Daren Dochterman , Doug Drexler , Pierre Drolet , John Eaves , Sean Hargreaves , Alex Jaeger , Matt Jefferies , Greg Jein , Joe Jennings , Koji Kuramura , "Mojo" Lebowitz , Jim Martin , Brandon MacDougall , Ed Miarecki , Michael Okuda , Andrew Probert , Mark Rademaker , Alain Rivard , Nilo Rodis-Jamero , Rick Sternbach , Sean Tourangeau , and "Meni" Tsirbas have built or assisted in the construction of these models, provided the original CG files, or have shared background material about their designs. [4] A number of original models have also been provided by other former production staffers and producers, including David Lombardi and Dave Rossi .

Where existing models were unavailable, unusable, or deemed unsuitable for use, many models had been commissioned by the company and wholly recreated by independent contractors including Bonchune [5] , Lebowitz, Fabio Passaro 's Meshweaver Productions [6] , and Ed Giddings of Cgreactor [7] .

The models were modified, retexturized, and converted into CAD files by these contractors before CAD tooling masters were created at the Holinail Group, [93] Eaglemoss' manufacturing partner in Dongguan, China. 2D renders were often used for the publication's illustrations and newly-created annotated schematics by its art editors in the UK.

Each accompanying twenty-page magazine (measuring 219 × 284 mm, except as noted) featured comprehensive articles about the design, filming, and on-screen appearances of the original studio model(s). Alongside the use of archival material, new interviews were conducted with a number of Star Trek cast members and production staff for the publication. Reference photographs of studio models, production stills, and concept art reproductions are also used extensively. Detailed "in-universe" information about the vessel's history, crew, weapons, and technology was explored within starship profiles and in other feature articles.

Gift premiums and magazine online versions [8] of many issues were also made available to subscribers.

Following the August 2020 conclusion of the Standard Edition in the UK, new releases for the Bonus, Special, XL, shuttlecraft set, and resin dedication plaque sub-collections continued to be produced for the line, as were magazine binders and hardcover reference books. A number of products have also been re-released in new packaging for direct sale through the UK webshop.

Though the "Standard Edition" had already completed its run by then, some of the other sub-collections of the Collection were still releasing issues when on 12 July 2022 all Eaglemoss product lines came to a sudden and unexpected end, as the company was forced to cease its business activities under the UK Insolvency Act – meaning a company is no longer able to pay off its debts. [94] Though having achieved a considerable portion of its goal, i.e. to have all pre- Kurtzman-era Star Trek ships released in one format or another in the Collection , the bankruptcy of Eaglemoss (which became effective on 5 August 2022 , as confirmed by Robinson [95] ) meant that the Collection fell short of its lofty goal in the end – albeit not by much.

In 2023, the company (new) Master Replicas had purchased the rights to Eaglemoss's remaining stock, and started to re-issue various ships ( and books) from the entire line from March onward, which also included a variety of issues Eaglemoss itself had not yet been able to release themselves because of its 5 August 2022 bankruptcy.

Standard Edition issues (UK) [ ]

Official Starships Collection Standard Editions logo

Standard Edition models commonly measure between four and six inches long and were released fortnightly. A number of these issues were later reissued in new packaging, and can be viewed below under the Collector's Editions section of Repacks.

In the UK, the Standard Edition release run concluded with issue 180 in August 2020, just two weeks shy of a full eight-year run. The cessation of the Standard Edition release automatically entailed the termination of the subscription service for those eligible customers who had opted to take out one. [9] Nonetheless, the 2020 cessation did not spell out the end of the Collection , as additional issues continued to be regularly released afterwards in the various sub-collections, mentioned hereafter, but these had to be ordered separately and individually at the company's webstores – like it always had needed to be, since none of the sub-collections were ever conceived as part of the subscription setup.

Bonus Edition issues [ ]

Official Starships Collection Bonus Editions logo

Bonus Edition issues commonly feature registry variants, concept designs, model ships, ships seen only on background displays, and other designs originating from comics , novels , Star Trek Online , and Ships of the Line calendars , and these often as "extended/soft canon " referred to starships were initially released in similar vein as the regular Standard Edition. The accompanying magazine is in contents similar to the Standard Edition magazines. The early SS Yorktown (first "convention exclusive") and Future USS Enterprise -D (subscription gift item) releases though, were issued in the "Standard Edition" packaging without magazines. Like the Special Editions, a number have been created in close consultation with the production artists who conceived the ships' original designs.

Those Bonus Editions models selected for convention purposes, were repackaged in redesigned "display boxes" like the one pictured on the right, with the same magazines that came with the Standard Edition, but downsized to 145 × 183 mm in order to fit within the box. Introduced in 2018 for the Collector's Edition , this packaging format became the norm for the Bonus Edition after the cessation of the regular Standard Edition two years later. No binder has been provided for the deviant magazine format by the company while it was in business. This Bonus/Collector's Edition format also became the regular format of choice for the later Star Trek Online Starships Collection spin-off publication, and where a binder for the deviant magazine format was made available.

Some vessels bear Terran Empire liveries and parts (as seen in the mirror universe ), while the Federation fleet seen in the Kelvin Timeline was added to the Bonus Edition releases in 2021, following later adjustments to licensing with CBS. [40]

It was the Bonus Edition that became the replacement format for the (mostly "canon") regular Standard Edition and was meant to yet release "some of the big deal missing ships we haven't got to" left over from that edition, [97] after it had concluded its run in the UK during 2020. The models in the Standard Edition size range (about four to six inches long), commonly debuted at Eaglemoss' Hero Collector convention booths – explaining the choice for the display box packaging – , and became afterwards available as "webshop exclusives". The August 2022 Eaglemoss bankruptcy had cut the intended release run short though.

Unrealized considered Bonus Edition issues [ ]

These concerned issues that were considered, but had not entered the asset production stage yet.

Special Edition issues [ ]

Eaglemoss received licensing to release starships from Star Trek 's alternate reality (officially known as the Kelvin Timeline since 2016) as Special Editions, alongside unique starships and space stations from Star Trek 's prime reality .

Made of the same materials as the Standard Editions, most Special Edition models are about six to eight inches long, and subscribers receive a small discount when purchasing them. The seventeenth release featured a battery-powered internal LED light.

These larger releases are retailed by the company's webshops and a number of other retailers.

XL Edition issues [ ]

Eaglemoss Star Trek Starships XL Edition logo

A number of "significant" starships from the Star Trek universe have also been produced in a larger size than the Standard, Bonus, and most Special Editions. Released as XL Editions, these models generally measure between eight-and-a-half and twelve inches long, and are available from company webshops and a variety of other retailers.

XL and Standard Edition USS Enterprise models

Following the successful roll-out of the first three of these "Oversized" (or "Large Scale") issues to subscribers and retail, this sub-line was also marketed as the " Star Trek Starships XL Edition " and was launched as a separate subscription partwork on Eaglemoss' US website. [98] The company has plans for about thirty XL issues in total, as of September 2020. [99]

Beginning with XL Edition 22, a slightly smaller 20-page magazine (measuring 227 × 155 mm) is enclosed with each XL Edition, which has been designed to be stored (and retailed) within the box beneath the model. This format was also used for the magazines enclosed with the repackaged Best of XL Edition releases outlined below (in Repacks).

Limited Edition Gold XL Exclusives [ ]

Similar to the displayed models seen in the observation lounge of the USS Enterprise -E and commonly debuting as "Exclusives" for conventions, Limited Edition versions of a number of XL USS Enterprise models are also manufactured with 18-carat gold-plated exteriors and are available in limited quantities.

Shuttlecraft issues [ ]

Official Starships Collection Shuttlecraft logo

Shuttlecraft models are smaller than the other releases, are made of metallic resin, include a small standardized stand, and are individually packaged within each four-pack box. Presently, shuttle issues are only available for purchase in four-packs, in all markets. Shuttles may be offered as individual issues and alternate deco (or registry) variants may be manufactured in the future, if further production runs occur. [100]

Four-pack boxes

In January 2015, shuttle issues were previewed to subscribers in Germany. By adding the "Premium" subscription option (for a small monthly fee), subscribers received a new shuttle every twenty issues. The first shuttle reached these subscribers in November 2015 [101] , and only ships from the first two shuttle packs were included in the offer.

An eight-page booklet (measuring 150 × 210 mm, the smallest magazine dimension of all Eaglemoss' Star Trek publications) that contains (exclusively) "in-universe" information accompanies each model. It features master systems display illustrations ( okudagrams ) newly created for each issue by Mike Okuda .

These schematics are also printed onto translucent plastic sheets (measuring 120 × 80 mm) which can be mounted on (included) plastic clip stands.

Rick Sternbach and Tim Earls designed the sheets for the third shuttlecraft four-pack, while Doug Drexler was enlisted to design them for the fifth and sixth sets. Okuda designed the sheets for the seventh set.

Starship sets [ ]

Each set includes a fifty-page booklet (measuring 168 × 216 mm) that contains material covering all of the starships in the set, compiled from the previously released individual magazines, as is detailed above. The booklet for both versions of the third set has sixty-five pages to accommodate the content for the extra (fourth) ship. All models are identical to their earlier releases (as Standard or Bonus Editions) and are packaged individually within the box for the set.

Collector's Editions [ ]

Packaging mockup

Debuting exclusively in North America in February 2018 and marketed as the Best of the Star Trek: The Official Starships Collection for its first three years, Eaglemoss re-released twelve of its most popular Standard Edition issues in new windowbox packaging with attached J-hooks, enabling the boxes to be hung on pegs at retailers. The models within are identical to their earlier releases.

Downscaled to fit into the box beneath the model, a twenty-page booklet accompanies each starship and its stand. Each "collector's guide" (measuring 145 × 183 mm, a smaller format which fits the box packaging) contains the same content as the larger, original full-sized A4 magazine (as is detailed above) but the issue number is not printed on the cover. Later, in 2019, this packaging style (without the J-hook) became used for the cloaked USS Defiant 2500-copy convention exclusive in the US and UK as well.

In 2020, the range was expanded by six ships and its availability in entirety to the UK was announced as a convention exclusive range, [102] (X) though like in the US, unsold copies ended up in the UK webstore as well. From 2021 onward however, after the Standard Edition range was terminated, the Collector's Edition packaging style became the standard for new outings in the Bonus Edition range.

Eleven more ships, USS Titan NCC-80102 (B05), Pralor Warship (B37A), USS Prometheus NX-59650 (25), USS Phoenix NCC-65420 (112), Federation Attack Fighter (68), USS Excelsior NCC-2000 (8), USS Appalachia NCC-52136 (54), UES Warp Delta (82), USS Equinox NCC-72381 (15), SS Emmette (124), and USS Bozeman NCC-1941 (120) were scheduled for a 2021 (re-)release in this format. That intent however, became thwarted by the COVID-19 pandemic which necessitated worldwide lock-downs, meaning the cancellation of every convention as well. The Titan re-release became one of only two realized, but was not able to reach market because of the lock-downs. [94] The other realized planned release concerned the 500-copy Pralor warship model-only convention exclusive. [61]

Collector's XL Editions [ ]

In 2020, the company began to re-release a number of its most popular XL Edition starship models as the Best of the Star Trek: The Official Starships Collection XL Edition , which transitioned to Collector's XL Edition in the following year.

In new "retail-friendly" premium boxes made of thicker cardboard (and the models within held in black foam), lifting the magnetic clasps and opening the gatefold on the box's front allows the model to be displayed (in a windowbox) while still packaged.

A downscaled version of the magazine (measuring 227 × 155 mm) with identical contents to the XL Edition (as is detailed above) is included with each model and is stored (and retailed) within the box behind the ship.

Gift premiums [ ]

Official Starships Collection Gifts logo

Gift premiums (known here as "loyalty gifts") are sent to subscribers and include a binder able to hold sixteen magazines (afterwards becoming the regular, standard binder for sale at the company's webstores), a polyresin USS Enterprise -D dedication plaque, a three-nacelled Future USS Enterprise -D model, and a battery-powered, LED-illuminated PVC Borg Cube. An enamel starship pin was added as a gift in June 2018, which was superseded by a pair of steel bookends in September 2018. [95]

In Japan, early subscribers received a unique, smaller, LED-illuminated PVC Borg Cube after De Agostini , the magazine's local publisher, "declined" to release the UK version of the Borg Cube and manufactured its own. De Agostini also released a key ring as a gift, in lieu of the UK's free magazine binder.

Initially advertised as subscriber "exclusives", the UK version of the Borg cube, the USS Enterprise -D plaque, and the Future USS Enterprise -D model were later retailed to the general public through company webshops. Magazines were not included with these starship models.

Starship dedication plaques [ ]

Official Starships Collection Dedication Plaques logo

Painted, scaled, metallic polyresin starship dedication plaques are made available through company webshops and retail outlets, and were designed by Michael Okuda. In late 2018, the company indicated that a "few more" dedication plaques were being planned.

The first release was initially distributed to subscribers as a gift premium.

Commencing in September 2018, US subscribers who opt for a "Platinum" subscription will receive a plaque every ten issues, for an additional ongoing fee.

Reference books [ ]

Designing Starships series [ ]

In October 2016 , Eaglemoss Publications premiered the first volume of the Star Trek: Designing Starships series, a line of hardcover reference books that are primarily comprised of starship design articles from the Starships Collection partworks' individual magazines, combined with new artwork, charts, and expanded material.

Published under the Hero Collector imprint, second editions of the first three volumes and all subsequent books in the series were released by Eaglemoss in mass-market editions, utilizing Penguin Random House 's Publisher Services division.

Shipyards series [ ]

Star Trek: Shipyards , subtitled The Encyclopedia of Star Trek Ships , is a mass-market hardcover reference book series that presents an "in-universe" chronological history of canon starships, and is published by Eaglemoss Collections through Penguin Random House's Publisher Services division, under its Hero Collector imprint. Starships from the alternate reality ( Kelvin Timeline) and TAS are not covered in this series, and ships seen only on displays will not be incorporated.

Volumes are principally comprised of starship profile articles produced for the Starships Collection partworks, combined with new artwork, charts, and expanded material. The series was characterized by Ben Robinson as an effort to create "an equivalent of Jane's Fighting Ships for Star Trek ". [104] [99]

A Special Edition of the first volume included a model of the USS Enterprise from (Standard Edition) issue 50 of the Starships Collection . [105]

In Japan, the first editions of the first two volumes were published by De Agostini and carried its imprint on the covers. The Books-A-Million Edition of these two books bore variant covers and were exclusively retailed by the American bookshop chain, Books-A-Million. Polish editions of these books were also published by HarperCollins Publishers .

A second edition of the second volume incorporates ships from Star Trek: Lower Decks , Discovery , and Picard .

A "limited edition" three-volume box set included a specially-designed slipcase, a fold-out starship size chart (a 35 × 25-inch poster), and the first, second, and fourth books of the series. [106]

The fifth and sixth volumes explore almost every Borg vessel and starship seen in the Delta Quadrant , and the company has created new CG starship models for many of the VOY ships that were solely created as practical (physical) studio models. [107]

The seventh, eighth, and ninth volumes would have covered major races and ships from the Alpha , Beta , and Gamma Quadrants . The August 2022 bankruptcy of Eaglemoss meant that only the seventh title saw an actual release.

Illustrated Handbook series [ ]

The first volume of the mass-market hardcover Illustrated Handbook reference series comprehensively explores the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D starship and its history, technology, and crew, incorporating updated and expanded content from the Star Trek Fact Files , alongside some new material and artwork. [108]

A Special Edition of the first book includes a starship model (from the first Standard Edition issue of this partwork), and both editions were published by Eaglemoss Collections through Penguin Random House's Publisher Services division under its Hero Collector imprint. [109]

The second volume features the USS Enterprise and USS Enterprise -A , as they were seen in The Original Series , Discovery , and feature films. [110] A model of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-A (from Standard Edition issue 72) is included with the Special Edition.

A third volume focuses on the USS Voyager and was slated for release in two editions but its Special Edition (with a model of the ship from Standard Edition issue 6) was "postponed indefinitely" before publication.

The fourth volume covers the Deep Space 9 space station , the USS Defiant , and the Danube -class runabouts from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine .

Many fans consider this series to be the contemporary successor to Pocket Books ' acclaimed Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual s from the 1990s.

Comic book [ ]

A limited edition of 1,000 copies of IDW 's Star Trek: Year Five Issue 6 comic book featured artwork and photography by Nils Walter Khan on its cover, and showcased the XL Edition model of the USS Enterprise .

The comic book debuted at Eaglemoss/Hero Collector 's New York Comic Con booth in October 2019 , where writer Jody Houser , "showrunners" Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing , and cover artist Khan autographed covers for convention attendees. [111] Additional autographed copies were also retailed at later conventions and through company webshops.

Eaglemoss/Hero Collector also retails the Star Trek Graphic Novel Collection partwork , which comprehensively republishes many of IDW's Star Trek titles and a wide range of comics from other publishers.

Non-regular magazine binders [ ]

Official Starships Collection Binders logo

The gift premium binder, listed above, became the regular, standard Collection magazine binder marketed on the company's webshops. [98] Additional "limited edition" binders with "Federation" and "Alien" starship illustrations on their covers have later been made available at a higher price point to supplement the standard binder design.

Limited edition binders

Originally released as a "limited edition" exclusive in December 2014, a "Federation & Alien" binder featuring a silver foil Star Trek logo (left) was only retailed for a brief period and did not reappear (on the US shop) until 2021. [100] The separate "Federation" (center) and "Alien" (right) binders, the other "limited edition" releases, later became available from company webshops on an ongoing basis.

When the smaller sized 145 × 183 mm magazine format was introduced for the "Collector's," and post-2020 issues of the "Bonus Editions" sub-collections, a new binder capable of holding the smaller-sized magazine format became required. However, this new binder was never marketed by Eaglemoss while it was still in business – though collectors could have made do with the similarly-sized Online Collection binder which had been released. It was only after the 2022 bankruptcy that new remainder stock owner Master Replicas discovered that the new format binder had just entered production for retail dissemination when the bankruptcy occurred. A small stockpile of these binders of about 60 copies was uncovered, and ultimately sold by them in September 2023. [77] [112]

Marketing [ ]

Uk and german test marketing [ ].

UK test issue 1

Originally identified as prospective product line during market research for (predecessor company) GE Fabbri 's short-lived Star Trek: The Figurine Collection , the first five Starships Collection issues were test-marketed at retail in England's south-west region beginning in May 2012 with selected regions in Germany – Star Trek 's biggest market after the US and UK – to follow, and the company's website began to solicit UK and German subscriptions. Due to unexpected heavy demand and the resulting production and distribution challenges, new subscriptions were suspended at the end of July 2012. As commonplace, the test issues were accompanied by local TV ads in the selected UK and German testing regions.

Upon receipt of the first five issues, subscribers were advised that the magazine had been suspended and that confirmation of forthcoming issues from the publisher was pending. Gift premiums were not distributed to subscribers. This type of early "test release" is a common practice for partwork publishers, in order to gauge public interest.

UK and Ireland marketing [ ]

UK launch promo

In September 2012, a Facebook page was established for the magazine and Eaglemoss subsequently announced that a full UK roll-out of the line was slated for February 2013. New subscriptions resumed on 17 September 2012 and the company confirmed that gift premiums and more issues were forthcoming. Residents of the Republic of Ireland were added to the UK subscriber base in early 2013.

At the very inception of the project, a production run of fifty issues was foreseen, [113] but by the time the project was gearing up for its initial run, the company increased that number to seventy issues and displayed a "provisional list" of ships at the Destination Star Trek London convention in October 2012. A large number of additional issues have been identified by company representatives through social media and interview podcasts.

On 9 January 2013, the company announced that the line would be indefinitely placed on hiatus until a new manufacturer was found, following the closure of their contracted production facility by Chinese authorities.

Early starships promo

Starship models produced with the toolings and paint masks from the closed factory subsequently appeared in large-volume online auctions from Hong Kong. The two USS Enterprise -D models were later dubbed " Shadyprise " variants by collectors, due to their somewhat shady origin. Notably, the early Klingon Bird-of-Prey, USS Enterprise -D and Future USS Enterprise -D models feature paintwork that differs markedly from the official releases.

In early April 2013, Eaglemoss sent emails to subscribers stating that the magazine was back in production at a new factory and indicated that shipping would resume in August 2013. This re-launch date was confirmed on the line's newly redesigned website in May 2013 and the first issue was re-released on 21 August 2013.

Standard-sized boxes

The Standard Edition-sized starship models are produced in "box scale", designed to fit within a standardized box size for sale at a common price point. The boxes for almost all of these starships (the Standard, Bonus and Shuttlecraft issues) measure 168 × 127 × 51 mm. Smaller (and taller) boxes (measuring 123 × 101 × 80 mm) were supplied for Standard issues 10, 58, 94, 96, 109, 127, 146, and 180, and Bonus issue 22. A larger box (measuring 176 × 176 × 80 mm) was made for the Bajoran Solar-Sailor and another (measuring 164 × 138 × 86 mm) encompassed the Xindi-Insectoid Warship. The dimensions of the boxes for the Special and XL Edition starship models vary greatly.

In all cases, the model can be easily removed from (and put back into) the box without damaging the packaging or model whatsoever. There are no holes made in the models for the stands.

In the UK and Ireland, COMAG UK distributes subscriptions through the Royal Mail while DPD (UK) and the Royal Mail distribute webshop orders. Most products are also available through specialty shops.

International marketing [ ]

Following the successful roll-out of the magazine in the UK and Ireland, Eaglemoss launched the magazine in a number of other territories worldwide, beginning in late 2013. English-language magazines distributed outside of the UK are identical to the UK releases. [101]

In Japan, the (numbered) Standard Edition issues are published and distributed by De Agostini and carry its imprint on the covers. The first six issues were retailed in 2012 in a test marketing run, similar to the initial UK five-issue test release. The subsequent regular Japanese release was marketed differently as magazine and model came standard packaged within a gatefold box, reminiscent of, but not entirely similar to, the later Collector's Edition packaging style. Like it became with the Collector's Edition, the Japanese magazine issues were released in a smaller format to fit within the box. As already stated above , the German release of the line became the only other international release that also saw a (five-issue) test run before its full launch.

John Van Citters , the Vice President of CBS Consumer Products ' Product Development division at the time, supervised the production of the partwork for the licensors and formally announced the expansion of the magazine to ninety regular issues at a panel on 2 August 2014 at the Official Star Trek Convention in Las Vegas. [114]

Further extensions were announced on 11 December 2015 (to 110), 4 September 2016 (to 130), 22 September 2017 (to 150), 25 December 2017 (to 160), and 3 August 2019 (to 180).

A small number of models were manufactured with minor painting errors that were corrected during subsequent production runs. Issues affected include 1, 9, 15, 16, and shuttle issue 08.

The Collection was briefly seen in the 2018 " Star Trek " episode of the Netflix documentary series The Toys That Made Us , where it was characterized as an accurately reproduced product line from a latter-day company that is specifically aimed at adult collectors. It also opined that the line is not a toy line nor typical mass-market merchandise, as it caters to a very specific and relatively small niche in the collector market.

Eaglemoss Star Trek Official Starships Collection contests

Online contests

In many countries worldwide, products were available at the company's webshops, and through other retailers, where available. In some of the larger sized foreign markets they had also been available by subscription at first. Most products were also retailed by newsagents and booksellers, and by comics, collectibles and gaming shops affiliated with Diamond Comic Distributors . Amazon.com , Anovos , Sideshow Collectibles , ThinkGeek/GameStop , and other retailers marketed a number of releases from this partwork and its Discovery spin-off . Loot Crate also released a small number of models within its Star Trek Mission Crate subscription box line.

Incidentally, the XL, Bonus, and Special editions rarely saw translated magazines, and the German- and Japanese-language regular edition magazines were by the time of the August 2022 Eaglemoss bankruptcy the only two non-English editions left. Over the course of the Collection 's release, most foreign-language magazines later switched over to English-only releases. [102]

When Eaglemoss went bankrupt in 2022, stock held by, or earmarked for, DeAgostini Japan was not part of the bankruptcy settlements and subsequent takeover by Master Replicas contrary to the German-language stock, as it was not owned legally by Eaglemoss but by the Japanese branch of DeAgostini.

In a Q&A session on his Twitter page, project manager Ben Robinson wrote, " It's a question of economics, though. If enough people are buying, we'll keep going. We're already doing more ships than anyone ever imagined. Hurrah! " [103]

The project manager had stated that he considered every Andorian , Borg , Dominion , Kazon , Klingon , Romulan , Suliban , Tellarite , Vidiian , Vulcan , and Xindi ship to be "essential" to the collection, and aspired to produce all of the Federation ships seen on-screen. [104]

In October 2019, the company announced that Standard Edition (numbered) issues would conclude with the publishing of issue 180, and later outlined plans to continue to produce more Standard Edition-sized Bonus ships that would have reached market "roughly every three months", beginning around "the middle" of 2021. [115] Bernd Schneider of Ex Astris Scientia , the noted Star Trek reference website, had assisted CG modeler Fabio Passaro by providing reference material for many of these alien ships and lesser-known "ships of the week", mainly from TNG and VOY. [116] EAS and MA member Jörg Hillebrand also contributed reference material for some of these issues. [117] [118]

More "extended-canon" or "soft-canon" Bonus Editions might had been produced, including newly-created models based on concept designs, and more cloaked ships are under consideration. "Battle-damaged" versions of some starships might had been made as XL Editions, while future starships from the older Star Trek films would likely had been released as Special Editions, due to the added costs of producing all-new CG models and toolings from scratch. A few Star Trek: The Animated Series ships might eventually had reached production, possibly alongside ships from later animated Trek series.

Registry , "cloaked", and gold variants might had been continued for release as convention exclusives but all new classes of starship would remain available to subscribers and retail. Robinson had indicated that the company wanted to ensure that missed con exclusives would "not be too painful" for those who could not attend, while still providing "something special" for collectors who did.

Robinson indicated that he hoped that the producers of Star Trek Beyond would allow Eaglemoss to manufacture a USS Enterprise NCC-1701-A model, something they have declined to sanction in the past due to uncertainty about its future appearance.

Eaglemoss had been hoping to produce the classic starship designs created by Franz Joseph as models, and has indicated that his estate had been engaged in negotiations with CBS.

The company had revealed that the USS Cerritos , USS Titan , and USS Vancouver would be forthcoming models and confirmed that its Star Trek: Lower Decks starships line would debut at retail in January 2022 . Robinson also indicated that the company would manufacture starships from Star Trek: Section 31 and Star Trek: Prodigy . [119] [120] [121] [122]

Star Trek Discovery Official Starships Collection ship promos

In January 2018, Eaglemoss/Hero Collector launched the Star Trek: Discovery The Official Starships Collection partwork, a monthly spin-off publication that features starships from the Star Trek: Discovery series.

The starship models measure from about fifteen to twenty-five centimeters in length, comparable to many of the Special Editions from this collection. Larger "Special Edition" DIS starship models, similar in size to the "XL Edition" models released in this partwork, have also been produced.

As is detailed above, XL Edition models of the USS Enterprise (as it appeared in Discovery ), the USS Shenzhou , and the USS Discovery were also released in this collection, following their release as smaller models in the DIS partwork. A USS Discovery -A refit model is also planned for this line.

In October 2020, the company announced that its forthcoming starship miniatures from DIS (after numbered issue 33), PIC, and SNW would be combined into a new product line, [123] which was subsequently identified as the Star Trek Universe: The Official Starships Collection . (see below)

In March 2021, the company launched the Star Trek: The Next Generation Build The USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D partwork, a new line featuring a seventy centimeter-long electronically-lit model of the USS Enterprise 1701-D.

Subscribers construct the die-cast metal and ABS model over 120 kit "stages", and typically receive four kits (sent together) each month. A magazine containing the relevant assembly instructions, some feature articles, and a TNG episode guide accompanies the model parts.

Art prints and die-cast models of the ship's shuttles (in Standard Edition size, as above) are also produced as Special issues of the partwork. [124]

Star Trek Online Starships Collection [ ]

Star Trek Online logo, large

On 6 June 2020 , the company debuted the Star Trek Online Starships Collection , a new partwork featuring four to six-inch die-cast metal and ABS starships, similar in size to the Standard Edition models from this series.

This collection exclusively presents starships from Star Trek Online , the massively multiplayer online role-playing game .

After launching with ten, the company announced that the series would be extended to twenty issues in July 2020 . On 10 August 2021 , project manager Ben Robinson announced that the line would conclude following the release of the twentieth issue, due to an insufficient response at retail. [125]

Developed from a design originally commissioned for the game, Eaglemoss has previously manufactured two starship miniatures (in two distinct liveries) of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-F ( β ) as Bonus Editions within the first Starships Collection , as is detailed above.

Each issue includes a (roughly) six to ten inch-long (150 to 250 mm-long, similar in size to Special Editions from this partwork) die-cast metal and ABS scaled starship replica from Star Trek: Picard and/or Star Trek: Strange New Worlds , and the line will later serve as a continuation of the Star Trek: Discovery The Official Starships Collection .

Larger Special Edition models may also be produced for the Universe series, though a number of XL Edition ships from DIS, PIC, and SNW will continue to be released in this partwork.

Promellian Battle Cruiser model in PIC Season 2 trailer…

a A copy of the Promellian Battle Cruiser model (Regular issue 142) was sent by Ben Robinson to Star Trek: Picard ' s Production Designer Dave Blass for a ship in a bottle set decoration that first appeared as a Château Picard fireplace mantel display piece in the Season 2 trailer , [126] like it was in the episode " The Star Gazer ", while making an additional appearance in the episode " Hide and Seek " as part of a childhood memory of Jean-Luc Picard . [127] Designed by series' prop master Jeffrey Lombardi , the 11.5×6×5 inches measuring ship-in-a-bottle model prop turned up later at auction as Lot #178 in Prop Store 's 15-29 November 2022 Star Trek: Picard Seasons 1 & 2 Online Auction , eventually selling on 29 November for US$9,375. [128]

The Eaglemoss retcon Enterprise model in a display case (top)…

b After the above-mentioned canon appearance of the regular issue Promellian Battle Cruiser model in "The Star Gazer", three more Eaglemoss display models from the "Special Edition" side collection also made an appearance in Picard's childhood memories in the "Hide and Seek" episode alongside the Promellian Battle Cruiser model, which made an encore in the episode; The first one concerned the NX-class refit model (issue SP06) – in the process making the hitherto apocryphal design canon as well – whereas the two other ones concerned the Deep Space Station K-7 (issue SP10), and Regula I (issue SP24) models. A fifth additional Eaglemoss model that was featured concerned issue 11 from the XL Edition sub-collection, that of the Discovery retcon- Enterprise which was seen on the top shelf of the same display where the two space station models were also displayed in. Each of the four additional Eaglemoss models were featured non-modified.

Footnotes [ ]

  • ↑ The models were painted freehand and with the use of paint masks (templates), alongside pad and tampo printing processes, while electro-plating is employed for the 18k gold-plated Enterprise -D release. The earliest prototypes are 3D printed in resin and, once approved by Eaglemoss and CBS, were manufactured using a variety of injection, vacuum, and compression molding techniques. [1]
  • ↑ Ben Robinson had previously used live-action production CGI studio models to create illustrations for other licensed Star Trek print publications, in the process becoming, at least where the Star Trek franchise was concerned, a pioneer by doing so. He commissioned Rob Bonchune (and others) to render these models for use in the Star Trek Fact Files and its US magazine derivative . Robinson served as project manager, editor and writer of many issues of those publications (incidentally published by one of Eaglemoss Collections' two original constituent parts, GE Fabbri ), foreshadowing his similar role at the Official Starships Collection . Regarding the availability of production-used digital models, Robinson has stated, " There is an excellent archive of ships from Voyager and Enterprise . Less so with the other shows. " [2] To alleviate this shortage of models, Robinson solicited the input of former Digital Muse Effects Supervisor David Lombardi , who turned out to still have a partial database of digital models that Digital Muse had specifically constructed for Deep Space Nine . [3] [4] Years earlier, Lombardi had constructed a digital model of the Enterprise -E as Digital Muse's solicitation model for possible use in Star Trek: Insurrection , and it was his model that was used for the orthographic views in issues 21 and XL3 of the Collection , alongside the beauty views of the later Star Trek Nemesis version created by Digital Domain . (See: Sovereign -class model )
  • ↑ Ben Robinson stated that he wrote the first magazines of this partwork in their entirety.
  • ↑ Some of the designers' background art and material about starship design is based on archival material, and may have been previously published in the Fact Files and its derivatives.

  • ↑ Praised by Lebowitz for their high level of detail, Ed Giddings' pre-existing Centaur and Excelsior models, constructed for the canceled 2000 Unseen Frontier reference book project, were deemed as quite suitable for use in the Official Starships Collection , as was his 2010 spin-off build of the refitted Excelsior -class which he had built for Bonchune's USS Enterprise Owners' Workshop Manual reference book. [7] New or replacement CG models that Ed Giddings' Cgreactor has provided for the Collection , as identified online, include issues 8 , 40 , 42 , 46 , 52 , 59, 90, 98 , 103, 123, SP1 , Bonus issues 08 and 19, and XL issue 17.
  • ↑ Magazine PDF versions of most of the main and sub collections can be found at Wikiban.com .
  • ↑ Though some Standard Edition-only subscription services had initially been offered to international customers in those countries that had a dedicated Collection website, most were prematurely terminated due the early closure of these websites , leaving only the UK and north-American subscription services in place in the end. Only open to UK inhabitants for this collection at first, the service was eventually extended to selected categories of non-UK inhabitants, typically those from continental EU countries, for the Discovery and Universe follow-up starships collections as well. In hindsight, it became clear that the overall 2020 termination of subscription services for the Standard Edition was actually intended as a desperate cost-saving measure by the soon-to-be-bankrupt Eaglemoss.
  • ↑ International release dates, invariably lagged behind those for the UK home maket, ranging from weeks to years in some rare cases. UK releases started to regularly experience delays beyond the release dates as planned by the company from early 2020 onward due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Brexit -inspired move of the company's warehouse and distribution centre from London, UK, to Waghäusel-Kirrlach, Germany, in early January 2021. (see also footnotes of main article ) It has resulted in a delay ripple effect for the international releases as well, since the UK release was leading for the others – even for Germany and the EU, somewhat ironically. The post-2020 release dates mentioned in all tables, are therefore indications of intention rather than the actual release dates. This applied to all partwork releases by the company.
  • ↑ The cover of the XL Edition of the Akira -class gives a different "real" ship length of 440 meters long rather than 464.43 meters, resulting in a scale of 1:3667.
  • ↑ The "real" Solar-Sailor's length is given as 49 meters on the Starfleet & the Federation scale chart included with the Star Trek: Shipyards - Starfleet & the Federation Box Set , and was published in late 2019. Scale was calculated from this figure, courtesy of Wixiban.com [8]
  • ↑ The magazine states that the size of the Prometheus is 126 m (used for scaling here) but other sources (and its onsceen appearances) indicate that a more appropriate size for the ship is 415 m [9] , placing the scale at 1:2964. Courtesy of Wixiban.com [10]

  • ↑ The original studio model of the Academy trainer craft bore a (too small to be seen on-screen) Cobra logo (from G.I. Joe ) as a nose marking. Hasbro , the owner of this design, "declined" Eaglemoss' request to use it for the starship model so a Red Squad logo was substituted.

  • ↑ Following a successful online fan petition championed by The Trek Collective and Geekology , [36] (X) models of the USS Titan (which primarily appears in Star Trek novels, video games and calendars, but made its first canon appearance in the Star Trek: Lower Decks episode " No Small Parts ") were produced. The original CGI model was designed by Sean Tourangeau and constructed by Ellery O'Connell , but the model was modified by Fabio Passaro for this collection. Project Manager Ben Robinson has later divulged that the Titan was considered an important release for Eaglemoss, as it was at the time the very first non-canon ship they released in the "Bonus Edition" side-collection. [37] Robinson had indicated at the time that, like with the preceding Yorktown issue, 5,000 copies was the minimum pre-sale number required for any petition to be successful, which was apparently achieved.

  • ↑ The length of the "real" Phase II USS Enterprise is not stated in the magazine so scale was calculated using Kennedy Shipyards' specifications, placing the length of the ship at 301.55 m. [41] Designed for use in Star Trek: The Motion Picture , Andrew Probert lengthened the Enterprise refit to a thousand feet (304.8 m), "just a few feet longer than it was", in reference to Matt Jefferies' Phase II ship dimensions. Computer screens also displayed the Phase II Enterprise design in the first two Star Trek films . ( Designing a refit- Enterprise for Phase II )

  • ↑ 60.0 60.1 60.2 60.3 All scheduled, but cancelled Eaglemoss issue releases had already entered regular production when the company went bankrupt and commercial quantities in the 500/2000-copy range of the display model at least had actually been produced by the manufacturer in China before production had to cease. [51] [52] They were acquired from the administrators by (new) Master Replicas along with the regular remainder stock, and sold to the public after all through their webstore, starting in April 2023 with the XL edition of the USS Stargazer and the regular edition of the USS Vancouver from the main and Lower Decks collections respectively, [53] several of them selling out within a day. Third-party UK and Far Eastern eBay retailers who had managed to get their hands on a handful of these unreleased Eaglemoss issues previously – and selling them at hugely inflated prices – , had already reported that these previously unreleased models came without the magazine, they apparently not having entered the regular print-run yet by the time of the bankruptcy, [54] (X) a state of affairs confirmed later on by the ones marketed by Master Replicas. It turned out a short while later though, that in the cases of the unreleased Special and XL issues at least, digital magazine versions were actually completed. Master Replicas only included (physical) magazines if they had already been packaged with the model (which was for the previously released issues not always the case, explaining in the process the large stock of back issues), some of which in German, the only foreign language version (besides Japanese, which however fell under the auspices of DeAgostini) still being printed by the time Eaglemoss had gone bankrupt; an 100,000-copy magazine (back-)issue stock did exist at two printer-owned warehouses somewhere (possibly also holding magazines of the unreleased issues as well), but the printer refused to release them until debt owned by the bankrupt Eaglemoss was fulfilled in full. As the new formal (model) inventory owners, Master Replicas had entered into legal negotiations with the disgruntled printer and was able to resolve the issue in August 2023. [55] [56] [57] The sale of this magazine stock started on 26 December 2023. [58]
  • ↑ 61.0 61.1 Originally announced as the Pralor vessel in the February 2019 survey . It was initially assumed by Master Replicas that neither model nor magazine for this issue had entered the manufacturing stage yet when Eaglemoss went bankrupt, as only a prototype model (in Pralor vessel livery) was included in an earlier batch of stock received from overseas. That prototype model became offered as a reward for the winner of an online competition Master Replicas ran on their Twitter account in July 2023. It was only afterwards that it was discovered that the model had actually entered regular production, and the company subsequently sold an uncovered 2000-copy Cravic ship variant stock on 1 September 2023. [59] Not only that, but a short while later a smaller stock of 500 Pralor warship variant models was also uncovered which had been intended as a model-only convention exclusive. It went on sale by ballot at a higher price point on 2 October with the proceeds earmarked for charity, though twenty copies turned out to have suffered transportation damage beyond salvation. [60]

  • ↑ The Special Edition Deep Space 9 model does not include a display stand.
  • ↑ The length of the "real" USS Enterprise from the 2009 film was not stated in the magazine. The ship was designed to be 366 m long but was scaled up by a factor of two for some sequences. 725.35 m (used here to calculate scale) is the length indicated by the film's Blu-ray disc. [61]

  • ↑ Length of the USS Enterprise XCV-330 is not stated in the magazine. Scale calculated using the Star Trek Spaceflight Chronology 's stated length of 300 m.
  • ↑ The length of the Klingon Warbird is not stated in the magazine so scale was calculated using an estimated length of 350 m, as indicated by Ex Astris Scientia. [63]
  • ↑ The "real" Kobayashi Maru 's size is not stated in the magazine. Scale is based on Ex Astris Scientia's estimated length of 562 m. [64]
  • ↑ Spacedock stands approximately 225 mm high when displayed on its stand.
  • ↑ Scale derived from placing the "real" V'ger 's length (after shedding its energy cloud) at 78,000 km, as stated in the novelization and seen in a film outtake. The magazine cover states the vessel's length is 300 million km, placing the scale at 1:1363636363636. Courtesy of Wixiban.com. [65]

  • ↑ The Planet Killer model's scale was based on an estimated "real" length of 5 km. Courtesy of Wixiban.com. [66]
  • ↑ A full-sized magazine (with a typo in its title) was included with the 18 karat gold-plated USS Enterprise -D model that was released in the UK. The model began to be retailed by the US e-shop on 23 December 2019 but did not include a magazine when first shipped. The model is enclosed in a Standard Edition box, within a printed outer sleeve that correctly identifies the product as the "Gold Model of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D".
  • ↑ The size of the "real" Vulcan Warp Sled is not stated in the magazine so scaling was based on the 48 meter length printed on the poster included with Eaglemoss' Star Trek: Shipyards - Starfleet & the Federation Box Set . Courtesy of Wixiban.com. [67]
  • ↑ Regula I stands approximately 225 mm high when displayed on its stand.
  • ↑ 77.0 77.1 Starting with issue 25, a fifth magazine size dimension variant was introduced for the "Special Edition" sub-collection; the magazine was downsized from the hitherto regular large A4 format to the smaller 176 × 227 mm dimension in order to fit within the box packaging, just as the similar case would be with the Bonus Edition sub-collection later that year, though at 145 × 183 mm that magazine size variant would become even smaller. Collectors found themselves confronted with another magazine size variant yet again, and one for which, unlike most other size variants introduced after the Standard Edition was terminated, no binder was ever provided.
  • ↑ The scale of the Son'a Collector was based on a "real" ship length of 5000 feet (1524 m), based on John Eaves' concept drawing, courtesy of Wixiban.com.
  • ↑ The Eaglemoss version of the station differs in several respects from the one featured in DS9 : " Apocalypse Rising " (its only canon appearance) because of the artistic license taken with the production model; firstly, the elaborate antenna array on top is for the Eaglemoss version switched to the bottom, and secondly, a fourth, lower arm was added at the rear of the CGI model, which had never been there on the production-used studio model (see main article for further clarification), making this outing one of the most apocryphal and egregious – for a company that prides itself for its "accurate" representations of canon models, that is – renditions by Eaglemoss of a structure that has appeared in canon.
  • ↑ Later reseller (new) Master Replicas has confirmed that this was the very last "Special Edition" issue to have entered production, with no others planned yet at that moment in time. [68] (X) This model too came without a magazine – even though a digital mock-up had actually already been completed [69] – , but 1250 of them were produced before the cessation of model production. [70] .
  • ↑ The final production version of the XL USS Thunderchild model does not have the ship's name printed on the saucer, in line with the studio model's appearance in First Contact . Inadvertently, a small number of models were released (mainly to Brazil) that had purple-painted impulse engines instead of grey. [71]
  • ↑ Scale was calculated based on the "real" Akira -class' length being placed at 440 meters, as is printed on the XL magazine's cover. A length of 464.43 meters, as is printed in the Standard Edition magazine, was not used here but would result in a scale of 1:2101. Courtesy of Wixiban.com. [72]
  • ↑ The XL Edition Deep Space 9 model includes a display stand.
  • ↑ The XL Edition USS Shenzhou model erroneously bears mirror universe Terran Empire markings on its nacelles, rather than Starfleet logos. Beginning with this issue, slightly smaller magazines (measuring 227 × 155 mm) were enclosed with all XL Edition models, now sized to fit within the boxes.
  • ↑ The only time that no new render of the CG model was made for the cover; instead, the exact same render was used as the one used seven years earlier for regular issue 36.
  • ↑ While (new) Master Replicas sold the model without the magazine, a digital magazine mock-up had actually already been completed. [73]
  • ↑ The Limited Edition (XL) version of the 18-carat gold-plated USS Enterprise -D is identified as the "Gold USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D" on its box and the "USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D (Special)" on its stand's label. It was made available for pre-order from company webshops (with only 1000 copies available worldwide) as a convention exclusive for the New York Comic Con x MCM Comic Con Metaverse online event (8-11 October 2020), and was first shipped (in a premium "Best of" box) to US customers in January 2021 and to UK customers during the following month.
  • ↑ The Limited Edition (XL) version of the 18-carat gold-plated USS Enterprise was made available for pre-order from company webshops (with only 500 copies available worldwide) in late April 2021.
  • ↑ When (new) Master Replicas received its stock acquired from the Eaglemoss administrators, it was discovered that the model was produced in larger quantities than originally announced, coming in at roughly twice the number Eaglemoss said it would. [74] Master Replicas planned to sell them in two batches to the public after all through their webstore in May and July 2023, [75] though it was eventually decided to forego the two-batch sale and stick to an one-time-sale only format on 26 May after all, [76] and where it sold out within the hour. [77] This was the second model for which Master Replicas strictly adhered to its recent 1-copy/1-customer rule, which the company had conditionally instituted for specific items, [78] the first one having been the Enterprise -E XL3 issue. [79]
  • ↑ The Type-7 shuttlecraft was constructed from Andrew Probert's concept design that appeared on LCARS displays, at the designer's request.
  • ↑ The Med Evac shuttle model is marked as shuttle 43, a shuttle that didn't have a red livery in the film.
  • ↑ In the second, third, and fourth editions of the Star Trek Encyclopedia , information about this Hawking was added to the entry about the original Type 7 Hawking while a diagram of a Type 6 shuttlecraft appeared alongside, which might explain the designation used here. Both the miniature and the full-sized shuttle used in Star Trek Generations for the Hawking were slight redresses of one of the Galileo -type shuttlecraft shuttles built for Star Trek V: The Final Frontier . The Type 6 was also originally constructed from another one of the Final Frontier shuttles.
  • ↑ An early production run of this 2018 re-release erroneously omitted the USS Enterprise -B model and included the USS Enterprise -E model. Free replacement ships were provided to customers by the company.
  • ↑ After the August 2022 Eaglemoss bankruptcy, (new) Master Replicas sold the stock of the Titan convention exclusive through their webstore in May 2023, divulging that a little over a 1,000 copies had been produced of this format version. [80] Ben Robinson had observed that a handful of copies had fallen into the hands of "scalpers" who sold them at hugely inflated prices on eBay. [81] Having eventually become canon in 2020 through Lower Decks though, was actually the very reason for its inclusion in the otherwise entirely canon Collector's Edition convention exclusive range.
  • ↑ Distribution issues resulted in some subscribers receiving their gift premiums much later than the scheduled intervals indicated on the magazine's subscription sites. Nonetheless, the magazine's Terms and Conditions state that the company had the right to modify this schedule (and the gifts) unilaterally. For American and Canadian subscriptions, the gift premiums were scheduled for much later subscriber milestones than had been the case with all other territories.
  • ↑ The bookends were previously released as a Star Trek Graphic Novel Collection gift premium and were added as gift premiums for new Starships Collection subscribers in September 2018.
  • ↑ This enamel pin was previously released as a FanSets product and was added as a gift premium for new subscribers between June and August 2018.

Eaglemoss Star Trek regular binder variant

Variant standard binder

  • ↑ Robinson had actually been mulling over the concept as far back as 2012 when he worked on the two ( Star Trek ) Owners' Workshop Manual s for Haynes Publishing , " I think the logical thing to do, and I haven’t even said this to Haynes, would be a Starfleet shipyard. I’m actually working on a collection of small model Star Trek ships. We’re collecting all the different CG models together as reference and then producing die-cast scale-model ships. These ships, like the Akira or… you can get much more obscure, like the Equinox or the Prometheus… they’re a big part of what makes the franchise cool for people, and there’s been remarkably little done about them. So if Haynes come back and say, “That went really well. What do we do next?” I think that’s what I would suggest to them. " [82] As it turned out, Haynes was not interested in Robinson's ideas, and what he had in mind eventually became the Eaglemoss Shipyards book series. In August 2020, Eaglemoss/Hero Collector released a similar shipyard book, entitled Battlestar Galactica Shipyards , that focused on spaceships from the Battlestar Galactica franchise ( ISBN 1858756111 ), whereas a second book, Battlestar Galactica: Designing Spaceships ( ISBN 1858758009 ), was announced for an initial release in July 2021, but which was postponed to 5 October 2021. [83] Like their Star Trek counterparts, both titles originate from magazines articles first published in its related partwork from the same publisher.
  • ↑ Since it first became available, the "Federation & Alien" (left) binder has been retailed continuously by the company's German webshop and was still in stock as late as 2021 – albeit language-adapted. [84]
  • ↑ Aside from those countries where it had entered into joint ventures with established outside publishing partners (such as De Agostini in Japan), Eaglemoss has utilized Data Base Factory for its customer service, distribution, translation, and editorial services for the UK and non-English language areas. Data Base Factory is now a subsidiary of CCA International Inc.
  • ↑ The company's discontinuation of non-English-language magazine releases were accompanied with not only the closure of the relevant official websites that had operated since the debut of the Collection in non-English territories, but also with the (premature) termination of subscription services in the foreign-language territories those websites had covered.
  • ↑ In conjunction with the expansion from seventy to ninety issues, Robinson later confirmed that former Star Trek Producer Dave Rossi had made the entire starship database of the remastered Original Series available to the publication. [85] From this acquisition, Robinson scored a coup for his project as it constituted the first time that the remastered Original Series ships, particularly those specifically constructed for the production, [86] were made available for products produced for the general public. This availability enabled Robinson to incorporate several of these into the starships lineup past issue 50 (including issues 60 and 63) and the run increase enabled him to slate more for release in later issues. [87] Rob Bonchune contributed new meshes for issues 57 (though strictly speaking, this was Bonchune revisiting the model he had already constructed for Robinson in 1999 which had made its debut in Star Trek: The Magazine  Volume 1, Issue 4 ) and 62 , as the remastered TOS CG models had not reached Robinson by the time the models were first required. However, these models were not quite production-ready, as CBS Digital had used Autodesk Maya software for their CGI effects at the time and the models needed to be converted into LightWave 3D , the software package of choice for the vast majority of Star Trek digital modelers. Robinson assigned Fabio Passaro, among others, to this chore. [88] Ironically, CBS Digital had originally bought the majority of the "hero" ship models from Finnish digital modeler Petri Blomqvist but had to convert them to Maya as he had constructed his models in LightWave. ( Sci-fi & fantasy modeller , Vol. 26, p. 48-50) If his models were to be used (such as for the planned Terran Empire Enterprise extra issue), then they need to be reconverted back into LightWave.
  • ↑ Following an unsuccessful search and appeal to a number of past Star Trek production artists, it appeared that the original CG models created for Star Trek: Insurrection and Star Trek Nemesis have been lost, necessitating Robinson's decision to commission all-new models for the Collection . [89] [90] Robinson has also commented that some existing models might be in file formats that require computer software that no longer exists, sometimes due to the use of proprietary 3D software in the past. In addition, subsequent upgrades to LightWave software has resulted in alterations to the current appearance of some production-used models, as some legacy features (including some shaders) are no longer supported.
  • ↑ Both incarnations of the Adam / McQuarrie -designed Planet of the Titans USS Enterprise study models (that were briefly seen on-screen as unidentified background ships) were slated for production as miniatures (with new CG models created by Eaglemoss) but after years without change in their licensing status by the licensor, Ben Robinson conceded that they "probably won't happen" due to legal ambiguities.

Along with the standard ship models, commemorative vessel dedication plaques are available as shop exclusives and binders are available to compile your magazine collection.

A wall calendar was added to this collection for 2020 as well as several volumes of books. Books included in the series are:

  • Star Trek Shipyards: Federation Members
  • U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 & 1701-A Illustrated Handbook w/ Collectible
  • U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 & 1701-A Illustrated Handbook

The Illustrated Handbook is 160 pages that accounts for every version of the iconic ship from concept through all the films. The Shipyards book is a 160 page volume dedicated to the many members of the Federation.

Eaglemoss has also released a line of Star Trek Busts and Star Trek Discovery Starships.

Eaglemoss complete inquiry class fleet, and launch the xl uss discovery-a.

Eaglemoss: Hero Collector have this week added some new listings to their web-shops for both some variant designs from Picard , and the XL edition of the Discovery-A. Continue below to check them out.

First up, you might recall the fleet of near identical Starfleet ships seen at the end of Picard season one was in fact made up of our distinct variants, featuring a mix of two different nacelle shapes (rounder ones and more squared-off ones) with bussard collectors in two different colours (more reddish or orangey). Until now Eaglemoss had released two of different looks for the ship, the  USS Zheng He (ad) , as issue two of the Star Trek Universe starships collection, and the USS Toussaint, which so far has only been available to subscribers of the series (ad) as an extra for maintaining the subscription. Well now the full Inquiry class fleet can be completed, as Eaglemoss have released the final two variants as bonus models on their European web-shops (no news on a US release just yet, but hopefully they will come there).

The red square-nacelled ship is the USS Varian Fry :

Based on the original VFX models created for the show, here are renderings of all 12 ships that make up the first wave of models in the collection – seven Federation ships and five Klingon vessels.

star trek online ships eaglemoss

The renderings serve as the basis for the creation of the die-cast models themselves, painstakingly reproduced under the supervision of Star Trek expert Ben Robinson and officially authorized by CBS Studios.

The first thing fans might notice about the ships in this special collection is the large size, on average 8”-10” from bow to stern. Incredibly detailed, each is cast in a specially formulated metallic resin and hand painted for accuracy.

Each ship also comes with a display base, plus an exclusive collector's magazine featuring behind-the-scenes info, original design sketches and a breakdown of technology on board. To learn more about the collection, visit HeroCollector.com/StarTrekDiscovery.

Fans who subscribe to the collection enjoy special savings and a host of exclusives. Scheduled for release at the end of January, the first ship in the collection – the U.S.S. Shenzhou NCC-1227 – is available to subscribers for only $9.95 with free shipping.

Additional models – including the iconic U.S.S. Discovery NCC-1031 – will then ship monthly for the special subscriber’s price of only $44.95 each (20% off the standard retail price), also with free shipping. Subscribers are also entitled to free gifts worth over $100 and may cancel their subscriptions at any time. Full details may be found at Star Trek Discovery Starships .

Fans who’d like to purchase their favorite ships individually may do so either online at the Eaglemoss Star Trek Shop or at their local comic book shop for the regular price of $54.95 each.

Original ‘Star Trek’ Enterprise Model Is Found After Being Missing for Decades

The 33-inch model surfaced on eBay after disappearing around 1979. An auction house is giving it to the son of Gene Roddenberry, the creator of “Star Trek.”

  • Share full article

A model of the U.S.S. Enterprise stands on a wooden base against a black backdrop.

By Emily Schmall

The first model of the U.S.S. Enterprise, the starship that appeared in the opening credits of the original “Star Trek” television series , has been returned to Eugene Roddenberry Jr., the son of the creator of the series, decades after it went missing.

“After a long journey, she’s home,” Mr. Roddenberry wrote on social media on Thursday.

For die-hard Trekkies, the model’s disappearance had become the subject of folklore, so an eBay listing last fall, with a starting bid of $1,000, didn’t go unnoticed.

“Red alert,” someone in an online costume and prop-making forum wrote, linking to the listing.

Mr. Roddenberry’s father, Gene Roddenberry, created the television series, which first aired in 1966 and ran for three seasons. It spawned numerous spinoffs, several films and a franchise that has included conventions and legions of devoted fans with an avid interest in memorabilia.

The seller of the model was bombarded with inquiries and quickly took the listing down.

The seller contacted Heritage Auctions to authenticate it, the auction house’s executive vice president, Joe Maddalena, said on Saturday. As soon as the seller, who said he had found it in a storage unit, brought it to the auction house’s office in Beverly Hills, Calif., Mr. Maddalena said he knew it was real.

“That’s when I reached out to Rod to say, ‘We’ve got this. This is it,’” he said, adding that the model was being transferred to Mr. Roddenberry.

Mr. Roddenberry, who is known as Rod, said on Saturday that he would restore the model and seek to have it displayed in a museum or other institution. He said reclaiming the item had only piqued his interest in the circumstances about its disappearance.

“Whoever borrowed it or misplaced it or lost it, something happened somewhere,” he said. “Where’s it been?”

It was unclear how the model ended up in the storage unit and who had it before its discovery.

The original U.S.S. Enterprise, a 33-inch model, was mostly made of solid wood by Richard C. Datin, a model maker for the Howard Anderson Company, a special-effects company that created the opening credits for some of the 20th century’s biggest TV shows .

An enlarged 11-foot model was used in subsequent “Star Trek” television episodes, and is now part of the permanent collection of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum , where it was donated by Paramount Studios in 1974.

Mr. Roddenberry, who said he gave the seller a “reward” for its recovery but did not disclose the terms, assembled a group of “Star Trek” production veterans, model makers and restoration specialists in Beverly Hills to authenticate the find.

The group included a “Star Trek” art supervisor, Michael Okuda, and his wife, Denise, an artist on “Star Trek” television series and films, and Gary Kerr, a “Trek x-pert” who served as technical consultant for the Smithsonian during a 2016 restoration of the 11-foot model.

“We spent at least an hour photographing it, inspecting the paint, inspecting the dirt, looking under the base, the patina on the stem, the grain in the wood,” Mr. Roddenberry said.

“It was a unanimous ‘This is 100 percent the one,’” he said.

Gene Roddenberry, who died in 1991 , kept the original model, which appeared in the show’s opening credits and pilot episode, on his desk.

Mr. Kerr compared the model to 1960s photos he had of the model on Mr. Roddenberry’s desk.

“The wood grain matched exactly, so that was it,” he said on Saturday.

The model went missing after Mr. Roddenberry lent it to the makers of “Star Trek: The Motion Picture,” which was released in 1979, Mr. Maddalena said.

“This is a major discovery,” he said, likening the model to the ruby slippers from “The Wizard of Oz,” a prop that was stolen in 2005 and recovered by the F.B.I. in 2018, and that Heritage Auctions is selling.

While the slippers represent hope, he said, the starship Enterprise model “represents dreams.”

“It’s a portal to what could be,” he said.
