Im really excited for the XL Odyssey Set! This looks absolutely amazing and gives me more excitement to see the Oddy!!

@Stu1701 2 ай бұрын

I know right! Definitely the one I'm most excited for. But there are a few others I'm really eager to see. Most the STO ships lol

Wow, I love that "Shangri-La" class! I think the weakest part of the new Titan design is the weird nacelles. We need a model of the Shangri-La!

Looks pretty good. A few of these I'll be interested in but only single purchases. I also really wish they continued the smaller size since that's what I collected from Eaglemoss and these won't really match. I hate that STO's 3D printing ended. I only managed to get 1 of the 3 ships I ordered and if it had continued I would have bought so many more including this.

I'm going to get the Titan and possibly the Farragut. Going to wait till i see some videos on it.

@Stu1701 2 ай бұрын

I subscribed to the whole collection, so stay tuned, I plan to do unboxing videos for each one as they arrive. I also have the two versions of Titan that Eaglemoss did, so I'll have those for comparison.

I don't plan to keep every ship from the Fanhome collection. I don't the space and I'm not interested in every single ship. I only signed up for the sub to ensure I could get Enterprise-F (and for content).

If anyone else was one of the fortunate subscribers to receive their USS Stargazer before Christmas as I was you'll find that she's front heavy on the display stand. I remedied that by placing a thin metal strip partially into the hole so it's support tilts backwards enough to to level it out. Fanhome could have prevented this by making the entire hull metal and just the pylons and nacelles plastic to balance it perfectly.

Received mine on November 22, two days after it was dispatched even though I was told by email the delivery would be between December 3 and December 6. But when I opened the box and removed the styrofoam lid I found the starboard warp nacelle loose in the packaging so I carefully glued it on. Hopefully no-one else will find that when they get theirs delivered by courier (Yodel delivered mine).

The glowy blue bits under the saucer were warp field governors if I remember correctly.

Just got my Titan-A in the mail yesterday. Overall, the quality is a few notches above Eaglemoss. Size wise this standard size is the size of an Eaglemoss XL series. It's about the same size in terms of length as the Eaglemoss XL Enterprise E and D. Paint job is well done, and overall better than Eaglemoss XL. They obviously did not want to do any azteking on the model and used weathering to try to simulate specular highlights at certain angles. Window paint alignment is very good. None were misaligned on mine except for one spot by the impulse engines. The point where the saucer and the neck meet is the most stand out negative on it. I assume in terms of window alignment there will be some variance in the production line, but for mine the alignment is very good, and tons better than Eaglemoss. The ship registry (where Eaglemoss sucked at even on XL) is very well done. Crisp clear, and the stripes around the registry numbers is there and clearly defined. I was very happy to see this. Seem lines are well hidden, with the only standout one at the saucer neck connection. Along the nacelles, secondary hull and saucer all seem lines are pretty well hidden and only show up if you pick it up and put your face right up to it.

Fanhome's standard size is roughly equal to Eaglemoss' midsize range, which originally used for Special Issues, but later became their standard after the released of the Star Trek Discovery collection. The XL's are still bigger, overall, it's just harder to tell with certain models due to the dimensions of different ships.

@AceParty 2 ай бұрын

Thanks for the video, Stu. I’m honestly not sure about the new program with the membership and all. I have probably over 50 Eaglemoss models, but I’m uncertain about the business model, especially since, as you mentioned, it’s only available in XL size, which is quite pricey. Also, I’m curious-do you like the Titan design? Outside the fact that the ship stole the Enterprise F/G spotlight in your views, I’m just curious to know what you think of the design itself, apart from the lore.

@sheetpostmodernist398 2 ай бұрын

I really wish they would go back to actual _patterns_ in the aztec marks. Between the TMP and TNG era ships, the pattern was a logical pattern that matched the layout of deck rooms and corridors, but once we got to Voyager and the Sovereign, they just went to random splatters of boxy panels everywhere with no real rhyme or reason. They still looked like they fit the designs, they just didn't have much regularity to them. The worst side effect of that in my opinion though? When Eaglemoss got ahold of the designs, they just slathered the ships in random splatters of blocky prints that didn't even align with the hull plating. The worst I remember was the XL Akira class. The aztec paneling looked like the entire thing had been run over repeatedly with tractor tires.

@kaidenshepard8446 2 ай бұрын

I agree about the impulse engines could have been plastic, but of course it just comes down to cost effectiveness, and I am sure if they do the XL version of it, it may have the plasic instead of the painted version. In my mind the smaller ones are for the maneuvering and of course extra speed, whereas the larger ones are the ones primarily used, though we saw them all lit in Picatd season 3, maybe it could be a little homage instead to the Enterprise-D just using the impulse engine in the secondary hull alone instead of utilising the ones in the saucer section also. The port and starboard phaser arrays on the saucer tickled me also, it made it lookk a little odd, yes Voyager had similar arrays but they curved more forward, so the phaser banks on the Titan-A are going to have to be powerful with less utilisation of a phaser array for forward facing attacks, but that is just me missing things, especially if the beam banks are locked into forward facing angles and not like a 180 degree one, making torpedoes a heavily relied upon weapon for forward attacks - I think. I am just waiting for the infamous window misalignment issues coming. I wonder if they will be adding the Shangri-La (sorry if it is mispelt) version of the Titan, to make the Titan family so far complete.

If they do a 2nd set of ships which Bob Robinson teased could happen, I would love a Shangri-La, but then again there's quite a few I'd like to see... including older ships released my Eaglemoss etc.

@Stu1701 2 ай бұрын

There are a few ships I'd love to see in the next round of models (if it happens) and Shangi-la is definitely among them. Really want to see some more of the STO ships too, like Reliant and Sutherland. And more Lower Decks ships, like the Monoveen and Osler.

It's pretty bad that they're no longer putting the ID stickers at the bottom of the stand . These stands are not uniform, the peg holes for the clear plastic ship-holders are different, and as is, this is just an invitation for the owners of multiple ships to break the clear plastic pegs in wrong bases .

The Blue glowy things would be warp cores.

@timdavis1543 2 ай бұрын

No, those are on the primary hull connected to the impulse engines and are extremely similar to a similar design of the impulse engines on the Constitution II class. The Warp Core or Cores would be in the secondary hull near the nacelle pylons.

The Titan is a cool ship, but it should have remained the Titan. It distinguished itself in battle and helping to save the Federation. The name Titan should have been given more respect rather than just drop it. However, it should not have been re-named as Enterprise. I think the Odyssey class should have been rebuilt (since the Enterprise F was destroyed) and named Enterprise G. The Titan just doesn’t have the gravitas or size to be the Enterprise upgrade.

@Mark_Williams. 2 ай бұрын

Ouuuff, yeah not a fan of the upsize and the half metal half plastic construction. Bit disappointing. Having said that, I'm hoping to get the F when it goes public to non-subscribers. I like that they've copied the stand base so it matches Eaglemoss ships. Is the Enterprise F only coming in XL size or will it be available in "standard" size as well? Standard looks about Eaglemoss XL size!

@Stu1701 2 ай бұрын

Enterprise-F, Enterprise-G, Voyager-A, and Protostar will only be available in XL.

@paulknight79 2 ай бұрын

Hi Mark, as far as I know so far Fanhome is only releasing the Enterprise F as an XL ship but they haven't released the entire list of ships yet. The other three XL's are going to be the Protostar, Voyager A and Enterprise G.

The Titan A in universe is Larger than the Enterprise 1701 so they are not to scale. Titan A is more comparable in size to Excelsior class.
