Continuing the line of "Starship Legends", the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 is instantly recognized as the ultimate symbol of the Star Trek franchise. Featuring realistic light and sound effects from the original series, this classic starship also features the voice of William Shatner as Captain James T. Kirk. This ship also features specially-designed packaging celebrating Star Trek's 40th Anniversary. Crafted by the Art Asylum, this is something not to be missed.

Nice-but stand could have been better.

Love the model of the Enterprise, but the display stand is terrible. Very awkward and does not support the model very well. However the quality of the starship is great.

A fine light-up original series Enterprise
»
Crisp, clear sounds - very good for a toy of this type. Nice bright lights that have never failed to work - the nacelles slightly pulsate in brightness to add to their effect. The fact that you can set it to simply do its light effects (without sounds) is great. We hung this with fish line above the table for a Star Trek birthday party and it hung there and blinked (blank?) for hours without a hitch.
I feel compelled to nit-pick for those who nit-pick, so...The red and green / port and starboard lights blink too quickly (but that doesn't bother my five-year-old who plays with it)...The hull color is too dark a shade of grey...There's a couple weird dents on the underside of the primary hull...Unlike the eleven-foot model in the Smithsonian, it topples over on its stand easily...But man, other than that, it's spot on in my opinion. Diamond Select does a darn fine job of producing above-par Star Trek stuff for a great price, and this Enterprise is another good example. Definitely recommended. Get one before they can only be found at auction for three times the price! Live Long and Nit-Pick!

Good Value and good Rendering of original NCC-1701
»
For 31.00, this is a pretty decent value. Lights, and sound effects. The only negative, and I wouldn't take points off for this, is the stand. Absolutely worthless. I don't recommend using it. Too flimsy. It can't even take the pressure of pressing on the bridge to activate the lights. It would be better to be hung. The plastic on the hull is pretty hard, and it is constructed pretty nicely. Someone made a previous comment that the saucer section was not in correct scale with the rest of the ship, but I didn't notice this at all. It would make a pretty nice green screen rendering on video. If you don't have the 1500 for the Master Replica version, then this is the model for you.

The Base Is Useless
»
The ship itself is fun but the way that it connects to the base is useless. The base is unstable at best and has a tendency to fall. Mine fell of the shelf it was on and broke. I would not buy this model, it was badly designed.

Original Enterprise is a winner!
»
Absolutely fantastic! I've been a Trek fan since I was a very little boy, watching re-runs with my older brother. I'd have given ANYTHING to have a toy like this back then! Fantastic detail in all the markings (much better than the models I used to build), and the lights and sound effects just set it off even more! Sure, there's the little plugs under the bottom of the primary hull, but who care's?? I don't look under there THAT much. Diamond Select did a wonderful job, and I'm extremely pleased with my ship...and have been showing it off!
