Product Description
A Diamond Select Release! An Art Asylum Design and Sculpt! Just in time for the new action figures comes the Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan U.S.S. Enterprise! Measuring 16 inches long, this light-up plastic starship features new sound effects from the classic film and features an all-new paint scheme. Sculpted and designed by Art Asylum, this legendary vessel is ready to leave dry-dock and explore your collection! Initially, Kirk was lured within range of the Reliant, not realizing that Captain Terrell had been replaced by the vengeful Khan. Abruptly the Reliant raised her shields and belted the Enterprise with a destructive assault. Kirk managed to bluff Khan long enough to call up the Reliantās prefix code, enabling Spock to order the Reliant to lower her shields. The Enterprise threw everything she had at the Reliant, forcing Khan to grudgingly withdraw. For the rematch, Kirk managed to goad Khan into the Mutara Nebula, in which the shields of both vessels would be rendered inert. Ultimately, Khanās last act of Milton-spewing vengeance involved the activation of the Genesis Device in a self-destroying attempt to obliterate the badly damaged Enterprise.

Summary: Great detail and effects 2008-07-27
Comment: I already owned the Classic Enterprise from Art Asylum, so I knew I'd eventualy have to own the refit.
This version is very nice in the details and sound effects. The attachment of the stand is a little odd, but nothing a little elbow grease couldn't fix. It looks great on my shelf.
Also, this was the least expensive (including S&H) I found on the Web.
A great purchase!

Summary: Great Star Trek Item 2008-07-15
Comment: This model is great. I love all the different audio clips from the movie that play when you press the bridge dome. The detail on the ship is very impressive.

Summary: Toy for a Trek Fan 2008-04-21
Comment: Don't know how whether you're in it to play your own mock battles or just love building models. For those of us who don't have the time to spend sitting there piecing together, painting and decaling a couple hundred piece model, this is a very well made toy with some of the best body detail i've every seen in a toy. About the only thing better is a real model.

Summary: An Enterprise for your desk 2008-04-19
Comment: The detail on the model is rather amazing especially considering it's a mass produced toy. There are more details than the old AMT model kit I made way back in high school, and I went out of my way to detail that as much as possible!
My one gripe with it is that I can't for the life of me figure out how the ship is supposed to sit atop the included stand. There's a bulbous end the ship rests on, but it's too big to seat properly, so the ship just falls off when you let go.

Summary: Must have trek model 2008-03-15
Comment: This is a great model of the refit enterprise. Beautifully sculptured with basically all the details you can imagine and whimore. The only downside is that this is a toy, which means its cheap enough for the masses to buy and therefore mass-produced so that some of the details can be skewed (e.g. paint smears, slight deformities in the shape of nacelle). However, the overall construction is very very durable and the model has plenty of details to compensate for any minor blemishes. The biggest downside comes from the fact that while the impulse engine part is over-lit with the light bleeding through the thin plastic extensively, the deflector dish (which should light up a beautiful blue) lights up very weakly and looks almost black when not lit. Still, the sub-30$ price is unbeatable, and you'd have to spend at least 6 hours painting an ERTL model to get anywhere even close to this model.
Final conclusion: the perfect toy for the serious trekkie: not so toyish as to be grossly inaccurate/chunky, but not so anally precise on exact details as to cost you 100-300$.
