Looks ok. It’s probably worth it if you are unable to make your own from the polar lights kit. The paint job needs a serious overhaul on the final product. It has some bizarre color choices. The strongback color is off as the A was the blue grey color with some remnants of the green that is the refit. The design on this is also from the A. That hard gold on the bridge dome is way off. Defuse the inside of the warp grill with a light coat of white and install the lighting on the roof of the grill side. Works great each time.

A U.S.S. Enterprise D on a 1/350 scale would be cool as hell. Okay, it might be 6 feet long, but the more, the merrier. The alternative would be an inflatable Enterprise D with a remote control.

I went to the Smithsonian a few months ago and saw the enterprise there... was really surprised on how similar our Tomy Tos looked. From the untrained eye it looked the same... just larger. Was really cool to see and makes me appreciate mine even more.

Thanks for the video! Both of these replicas are a far cry from the AMT U.S.S. Enterprise I built at the age of 10 in 1967. As such, I am grateful to TOMY+ for their efforts. I already have the TOS version and despite the "dropped ball" issues (i.e.; screw holes, visible seams, etc.), the overall features (IMHO) VASTLY EXCEED the shortcomings. BTW - I have left instructions with my Family that upon my demise, BOTH ships are to be buried with me!

D7 would be epic. I don't have room for another model as big as this but I think I'd have to buy the D7. I think the one flaw in TOMY's business model is most people simply cannot display so many large models and they will have to pick and choose. That's not to say I wouldn't buy all they make if I could actually display them.

When I first saw the pictures of the person holding the die cast, I was excited. Then I saw it on the base, and just like you, I DON'T LIKE IT. It needs to be level, not tilted down. I wish they wouldn't have the vertical lights in the nacelles as well. They could smoke the backside of the blue, to defuse it maybe.

So after watching the most recent 4K color corrected director's cut of the motion picture (the color grading on previous releases including the theatrical version were terrible) the strong back does look cool gray Robin egg blue, inside the deflector dish should be gray when off. I don't see any gold plating on the bridge module. And the finish should be satin instead of gloss.

My favorite Enterprise. I built a Refit back in the 80's and it took a long time. At that time had no idea how to get the Aztec paint. So I used different shades of metallic silver, painted by hand. There weren't lights then. But it looked good. Wish I still have it. When I lost my house I lost it as well. Maybe I will try the Polar Lights model someday.

As a model builder I am pretty picky with the detail of the models I build. I saw the photos of the first diecast they did and the seam lines turned me off. For me it was once I see them I can not unsee them. i was not sure if I would regret not getting that first diecast. I wanted to support them but not for something I would not want to display. Of course there will be people that say I could buy it as an investment and sell it later but I do not like doing things that way. So now that the TOS has been done and shipped I do not regret getting one. I feel that it will be the same for the refit. Again as a modeller I am lucky that I will be able to build my own 1/350 refit. I actually have the kit and the paints. I am also going to add my own electronics. Yes it will cost me much more than $700US but I get to build it my way. For those that are not modellers I am glad that they now have an option of getting their own 1/350 refit.

Those blue painted highlights on the hull are too bold/prominent. I'm sure they are likely following strict movie production instructions, but that's not how the paint looks in actual footage. Those blue highlights are barely detectable when you watch the movie. I've seen really well done 1701 refits that have a more subdued blue/grey hue for those highlights and it looks much better and more in line with what we see in the movie. Edit: This could just be the lighting in the images and that the actual model/prototype looks subdued. When the model is being lit by the spotlights the blue is less prominent. I'm sure it's fine. Overall, this looks great and a shuttlepod that could dock would be fantastic! 🙂

Apparently, this is the 1701-A paint job. A commenter on another video said that TOMY has been made aware that the blue highlights are not TMP accurate and they will be addressing it. Interesting. We'll see.

I never even heard of Tomy until today when I saw a Facebook ad and signed up for the TMP immediately. I can't wait. I have no idea what to do with my dozen random sets of the Eaglemoss build TNG D. They're worthless. And they would "throw in" random sets and charge up to $70! I felt scammed after a while. And with easy math it would be $1,200 by the end of that one. (Not including the "extras") I mean, I do love the TNG shuttle set but I was already spending too much as it was. (I took a break in the 30's of the regular Eaglemoss ship collection a year prior) This die cast model is amazing. I can't wait for TMP. I'd be in Stovokor if the D came out soon after!

They made the wind up and motorized Zoids toy line of dinosaur and beast vehicles (think Gundam but animals), as well as many die cast and wind up Japanese toys going way back into the 70’s and 80’s. They merged with Takara a while back, but international products sell under the TOMY name.

Agree with the warp nacelle’s but I prefer blue instead of purple. But what is going on with the paint scheme around the deflector and strong back. Long distance shots looks like the A colour scheme. Close up it looks like a combination of the two. I was under the impression the refit was a combination of greens? Also the warp pylons inner plating looks like 3 different colours going on there.

It does look really nice generally, but I'm not a big fan of just how GOLD they made the bridge part. I know it's supposed to have a bit more of a platinum color to it in the movie but it's a very subtle shade as opposed to this really strong gold, and considering it doesn't seem to have as much of that florescent aztec pattern overall as well it just makes the gold stand out more amongst all the white. I know it's a really small gripe but it really jumps out at me in the pictures. It's quite nice for a completed model otherwise though definitely made for the dark since the lights and spotlights look like its biggest strength.

you know I think the real problem with this is they need to make a second prototype that is closer to the actual production model, as this is a big leap of faith to spend that kind of money on a model that you really dont know how its going to turn out, and for the paintjob, looking close, its using Metalic Flake paint, while the original was opalecent with no flake and its reminding me alot of the Johnny Lightning Diecast model and you make some fair points about the lighting as well also I think the painting looks alot like the QMX continuation companies paintjob on the enterprise D model they make, which I think was featured in a tested video you were in actually the one about the Frigate they used to replace the F, with the Enterprise G there, you were in the background checking out the models, and I'm not sure if it was in that one, or the other one where they showed the QMX continuation models really and its got that same weird look to it, like you just cant replicate airbrushing with diecast. and it needs a wash to look more flat so the detail can look more uniform and form properly as its the weird thing about the design, the opalecent paint helps make the ship seem stronger as it looks more uniform, when they actually took that away it made it look more dull and parts meal especially with the blue bits that in the filming turned grey, its something you really note with the excelsior vs how it was portrayed latter where in filming for the movies, it looks strong, sleak and futuristic then they get to CGI and left all the blue bits on it and didnt color correct to make it look right which was something that even happened with the enterprise D too, where the glow and paint would merge to give it a purple hue around its buzzard collectors as its one of those things, nevermind how it looked on stage, you want how it came across on film also the actual prototype is bending, the engine is sagging on the right and it seems like this are not aligned properly as I've been thinking about this since adam savage showed it on tested, and while it is impressive, its also huge, expensive, unwieldy and not due for damn near a year and they really shouldnt have a limited opening for this, like I'd like to see a proper mark II prototype that's closer to the real thing also you wanna talk about a stretch goal, how about having the option to switch out the bridge with the original design for it, it was in the original press photos and basically the bridge from the TOS enterprise itself actually until they had a water drip onto the saucer when it was in storage and had to be replaced in a hurry, given it was wooden and had swolen up but overall I applaude the effort but for that kind of money, well I can get something for about 1 to 2/7ths of that that would do the same thing that was made over 20 years ago in kit form that wouldnt take up 35 inches, weight 20 pounds, plus another 30 for the packaging and I already built my mark II version of the refit myself finally, and fixed the JJ design, by simply remounting the engines properly so the air ducts go under the saucer and are in their proper position like in the original concept art where it had the TOS paintjob on it via the F toys model of it that I broke the mounts off on purpose to reposition it so and its sitting right next to it downstairs, I do wonder though, does Tomy take requests, wonder if I could get them to do the interceptor from spyhunter 2001 NOW THAT I WOULD BUY lol

Actually the Refit is 100 bucks more. The TOS was 599. The Refit will be 699. Still a great price IMO. Can't wait! So excited for this to go with my TOS! Oh and the prototype shown is in plastic not diecast. Of course it will end up being diecast but for the promotion it was built in plastic. Also there will be a detailed shuttlebay interior and officer’s lounge as well.

I could not justify the TOS one-beautiful though it is. I can't make model kits well enough so if I was going to get one it would either be this or a painted polar lights one . Again-cannot really justify the expense.

If you watch the Adam Savage video on the TOMY refit Enterprise, the TOMY rep said the reason they didn't do USB for the TOS Enterprise is that if you ran the nacelles 24/7 for months/years eventually you would burn the nacelle spinning motors out. There is no way to replace those motors easily. The refit Enterprise is just all LED lighting so having that on all the time won't have the same drawbacks as the TOS Enterprise withe the nacelles. Here is link to the video, much more close up look to the refit for those interested kzbin.info/www/bejne/ep6VkI2Lor-YqaM

I noticed the large seam on the primary hull top; could that possibly be removable to show an enlarged bridge underneath. Similar to the 25th anniversary diecast from the early 90’s.

After the TOS E. Am very leery on how it will really look. Also the paint. They will do the Mattel hotwheels style. The pearl will be tampos. I compare their TOS E to my MR E.

Its compelling. I have my polar lights one Im suppose to be redoing but bc im focusing on school right now and also trying to find a better job. Its crazy just like the Fanhome/Eaglemoss Enterprise D this thing is going to be battery powered. Thats one of things I don't like. im intrigued for real i may consider it if they offer it later maybe i can make it a christmas present to myself.
