Star Trek Nemesis Enterprise E Starship

This is a brilliant model, the detail is fantastic. This is my favourite Diamond Select model and arguably the best Enterprise they have done in my opinion. I cant stop looking at, its a thing of beauty.

My son loves this .. He is a real trekky at ten he knows more than most trekky adults so this was perfect as it is stylish sleek and built very well ..The sounds are good too .. Sounds true to life xx live long and prosper trekkeees

Excellent quality. Really good light effects. The sound effects are very clear.

A really excellent reproduction of the Enterprise E. Far superior to my old Playmates version. Only complaint was the makers mark and origin on the underside of the nacelle pylons- nothing some deft application of Brasso wouldn't sort out, so now she sits proudly with nothing to detract from the overall excellent paint job.

This is the third Diamond Select Toys Star Trek ship that i have purchased. I already had the TWOK refit Enterprise and the Enterprise B. Both of those ships had some minor issues with fit and finish, mostly around the paint and/or decals (the ship name decal of the side of the E-B says that it is the Excelsior rather than the Enterprise for example) but for the most part i was very happy with them. For that reason, i was somewhat disappointed with the Ent.-E when i removed it from the packaging.Compared to the other two i mentioned, the Ent.-E feels light and cheap and there are multiple issues with it's finish. The paintjob, purported to be a 'Nemesis' accurate scheme, just does not look right from any angle. The colours are all wrong which makes the ship look very much more like a toy than the other two i have. This is compounded by the fact that despite meticulously molding in all the windows on the ship, DST didn't bother to paint them. I'm hoping to fix that with an ultra fine tip permanent sharpie marker that's currently on it's way in the mail. There are also issues with multiple scuff marks right out of the box and some paint over bleed.Ship has a lights and sounds feature. I cannot tell if it has the 'always on' feature by holding down the button as i cannot move the ships switch from 'try me' to play. Button is located within the battery compartment and i can't get the compartment lid off as the screw is much too tight. There is massive light bleed around all lighted areas.None of the panels on the ship seem to meet up properly. Where the nacelles meet the secondary hull is a particular problem and you can see right through and out the other side of the ship on mine. Also has gaps in the panels directly above and below this spot. Right below that is the battery compartment which also has a big gap all the way around it's edge. this plus the issue with the nacelle struts just make the side of the secondary hull a big gappy mess that looks like something you'd expect to find on one of those low rent knock off toys. Also had some issues with panel fit where the 2 halves of the saucer meet, and when i took it out of the box both nacelles were split in 2 around the bussard collectors, but have more or less clipped back together with a little applied force. I have also noticed that since having the item on display for a few weeks, the very back of the secondary hull just past the shuttle bay has also started to split now too. Tried pushing it back together to no avail, so will have to try superglue.The stand looks very nice with the ship attached, but it seems to be very flimsy and i have read online that they are well known to break. Stand connects to the underside of the ship with the use of a ball joint. This joint is extremely tight, and i thought for sure that it was going to break when i first attached it. I think the stand should be OK provided you 'pose' the ship and leave it alone but will more than likely break with a lot of handling. If you do not wish to use the stand, if you should perhaps want to string your ship up to a ceiling or whatever, you do have the option to remove the batter cover and replace it with a second one that does not have the socket for the stands ball joint in it. I thought this was a nice touch.I know that ultimately, this is a toy and not a high end collectible model, but i think the other 2 i own can easily pass for a cheaper (yet high quality) model, but this one never looks anything more than a child's toy. Had i paid £20 for this item, i suppose i would be happy enough, but for the £54.99 pricetag, it just wasn't worth the money. If you are considering buying one, perhaps check out the more recent 'First contact' version as from what little pics i have seen it appears to have a slightly better paintjob. Just hope they did something about the massive gaps all over the thing.If you are a die hard trek ship fan, you will get some enjoyment out of this, but with some basic quality control it could have, and should have been much, much better. It's no comparison to the TWOK refit or the Ent-B produced by Diamond select, so unless you're heart is set on this ship, perhaps try one of those, or the Ent.-D if you can find one for a decent price. I have the same issue all the time with other items i collect such as Transformers and Iron man figures. The quality of these type of products is shockingly bad sometimes, and i wonder why we put up with it. If i pick up a transformer or iron man that looks like it was painted by a blind chimp then randomly rubbed with sandpaper i just sort of shrug, say ah well and put it down to the product being made by Hasbro, and that it just how they roll. Thing is though i would never accept such poor levels of quality from any other product i bought such as a TV, kettle, pair of shoes, car or whatever, so why am i willing to accept it with my 'collectibles'?...

Brilliant

Really not happy great model ruined by missing buzzard collector on nacelle 😠 this was to complete my collection.

looks really good their nothing wrong with it but wish the paint job was a bit better but still looks good

Exactly what I wanted! This particular one is the newer release of the ship with the Diamond Select registry/branding printed on the bottom of the warp engines removed, which is great!

これはひどい。写真のクオリティとは全く別物の、塗装はお粗末、返品する手間も惜しいので押し入れにしまいましたが、この商品写真は何とかなりませんか？　詐欺まであと一歩ですよ。

I recently began collecting these Star Ships from Diamond Select/ Art Asylum. They are very well made and look absolutely fantastic. Each ship does have features unique to the actual product. Mostly small variations as far as lights and sounds. As well as graphics. The Enterprise E is the next ship in line following the Enterprise D. This particular model is actually quite well made and looks nearly like its full sized movie ship. Although somewhat smaller in scale as compared to the Enterprise D and the Klingon Bird of Prey, the E is still nicely proportioned. Right out of the box she looks like the quintessential Star Ship. The one element of this particular ship I like are the lighted nacelles. They light up in both a beautiful rich blue and red color. Along with various sound effects, the nacelles look awesome when activated. The activation button is the actual bridge on the saucer section of the ship. Now I would like very much to address two issues that others have addressed as far as the negative aspects of this particular model. First, the stand. Let me be absolutely clear here and please follow my advice. The stand is of the ball type. The ship comes with two distinct battery covers which enable one to play with the ship and have no hole and another cover which does have a hole. This hole is somewhat tight and "great" caution must be taken when pressing the ball stand into the hole. A little spit will help. Once you start pressing this in make sure you handle the ship and stand in such a manner that your grip in the stand will not allow it to break. Don't assume anything. There is a reason this is difficult. The purpose of which is to make sure the ship is secure and can be positioned in multiple positions without falling. Once on, the ship can be displayed in any manner you feel looks good. Just take your time. Second issue. The so called lettering on the nacelles. This is the copy right lettering on both nacelles on the lower portion and it is visible. Personally, I agree the company could have placed this lettering somewhere else, but in reality, it does not in anyway detract from the awesome job they did with this particular ship. I highly suggest that unless you are a really gifted modeler, that you do not attempt to remove or deface this writing. Like anything else, it will grow on you. Some suggested using a solvent or lightly sanding this area. While that may or may not work, consider this, the value of the ship will be greatly decreased by defacing the actual copy right information. In short, I suggest leaving it alone. The only other source of contention from some who purchased this particular Star Ship are the lights. Although quite beautiful, there is no activation button which allows for them to stay on. My other ships all have that feature. Why the company did not incorporate this feature into this ship is beyond me, but in reality, it does nothing to take away from the fact that this was and is a really nice model and well worth the asking price.The details of the E are well done. Everything from the various Aztec patterns to the actual graphics and logos look crisp and clear. Although when the lights are activated, there is residual light bleed thru on the hull and nacelles. Again, a very minor issue and hardly worth mentioning. The E is my fourth ship and although somewhat smaller in scale to that of the other three I have, she still looks great as a collector piece. The boxes these ships come in are worth saving. They are well made and look very nice. Also, they are practical. Should one decide to move/relocate, the ships can be packed properly away. Thus ensuring no damage comes to them. A life long Trekkie, I find these Star Ships remarkably inexpensive compared to actual models one must spend months constructing. Mind you, I have great respect for those that have both time and skill to build models like the Polar Lights Enterprise A. Although clearly larger in scale and greater in detail, they do, none the less, take great skill and patience to construct. So, the alternative is Diamond Select or perhaps Playmates. Both sold here on Amazon. I highly recommend all the Diamond Select Star Trek Star Ships. They are well constructed and incorporate excellent detailing not really seen too often on something sold as a mere toy. The truth is these are collector ships and although children can play with them, they make absolutely awesome adult collector pieces. Clearly all that remains is the Voyager! A ship which I hope Diamond Select/Art Asylum will create and hopefully in a larger scale.End Transmission

Hierbei handelt es sich um die Neuauflage der Diamond Select Enterprise E, wie sie in Star Trek Nemesis zu sehen war. Der Detailgrad der Bemalung ist außergewöhnlich hoch. Diesmal sind alle Oberflächen entsprechend des Originals ausgearbeitet. Genau hier schwächelte noch die Vorgängerversion. Schön, dass Diamond Select hier großzügig nachgebessert hat. Die Proportionen des Schiffes sind die exaktesten, die ich bisher gesehen habe und sind bis jetzt beispiellos.Obwohl es sich hierbei um ein Spielzeug handelt, bekommt man für sein Geld das bisher akkurateste Modell der Enterprise E. Konkurrenzprodukte von AMT/ERTL, Alliance oder Bandai können da nicht mithalten. So treten bei diesen folgende Fehler auf:- AMT/ERTL Enterprise E: Hauptdeflektor liegt nicht auf einer Ebene, sondern in einer Wölbung (wie dieser Fehler auftreten konnte ist mir absolut unverständlich, da dieser Bereich des Schiffes in Star Trek VIII mehr als ausführlich in Nahaufnahme gezeigt wurde (Kampf mit den Borg auf der Deflektorschüssel). Hier haben die Mitarbeiter von AMT/ERTL schlecht recherchiert.)- Alliance Enterprise E: Untertassensektion an Vorderseite zu rund, Quantum-Torpedorampe zu spitz zulaufend, generelle Ungenauigkeiten der Proportionen.- Bandai Enterprise E: Proportionsprobleme (zu flache Untertassensektion, zu lange Shuttlerampe, falsche Beleuchtung an Frachtschotts der Maschinensektion, Impulsantriebe zu klein, etc. ...), zu großes Spalt Maß und viel zu teuer (> als 200 €, einfach unverschämt).Natürlich ist die Enterprise E von Diamond Select auch nicht perfekt:Hier fällt z.B. auf, dass die Beleuchtung an unpassenden Stellen durch das Plastik hindurchscheint. Dafür kann ich aber keinen Stern abziehen, da es sich hier lediglich um ein Spielzeug handeln soll. Außerdem kann dieses Problem behoben werden, indem man das Schiff auseinanderbaut und von innen schwärzt oder am besten mit Alufolie beschichtet. Das Übermalen der Lizenz und des Herstellers (Made in China) auf der Unterseite der Warpgondeln dürfte auch keine großen Schwierigkeiten bereiten (mit der richtigen Farbe). Deshalb von mir auch hier kein Stern abzug.Und nun zu den Sound-Sequenzen, die für mich eine eher untergeorgnete Rolle spielen, da ich als Modellbauer vor allem auf den richtigen Maßstab aller Komponenten und die Bemalung des Schiffes achte:Insgesamt gibt es 2 Soundsequenzen, die Kurze wird durch ein kurzfristiges Drücken der Brücke aktiviert und beinhaltet die Stimme Cpt. Picards: "All hands Battlestations!". Eine längere Version ertönt, indem man die Brücke über mehrere Sekunden gedrückt hält (enthalten sind: abermals Picards Schlachtruf, aber zusätzlich Phaser-, Torpedo-, Warpantriebs-, Treffer- und Explosionsgeräusche). Es wäre schön gewesen wenn mann über verschiedene Knöpfe gezielt einen speziellen Ton ertönen lassen könnte, anstatt nur eine ganze Sequenz abzuspielen. Aber da es sich bei den Soundsequenzen aus meiner Sicht nur um ein "Nice to have" handelt, ziehe ich hier abermals keinen Stern ab.Übrigens, ich kann das Problem meines Vorredners mit dem Ständer nicht nachvollziehen. Die Montage stellte absolut kein Problem dar. Man musste einfach nur das Kugelende des Ständers in die ein wenig zu kleine Öffnung auf der Unterseite des Schiffes drücken. Da diese mit weicherem Plastik ausgestattet wurde, musste man nur einen kleinen Widerstand überwinden. Das ganze stellt nach der Montage ein Kugelgelenk dar, wodurch die Enterprise in fast jeder erdenklichen Position präsentiert werden kann.

AMAZING detail, great for an Office or "Man Trek-Cave" setting!**The stand is difficult to attach and detach, seems it may break with the amount of force required. I realized its best to leave the battery compartment cover fixed to the stand at all times, simply unscrew it and afix the provided "play mode" battery cover (without stand opening).
