Your Eaglemoss Trek content is the best & most accurate on the net. One concern for Eaglemoss: their renderings of the renovated Discovery-A depict the vessel in the copper skin it’s worn since Season 1. For the refit, the skin was redone in gorgeous silver, and subtle changes made to the secondary hull. Remembering their version of the TOS Enterprise from the pilots with the jarring absence of the high bridge tower, I hope the Eaglemoss team takes advantage of this opportunity & doesn’t produce a copper refit that is just a duplicate of the first version with the nacelles chopped off. If you can put a word in with Eaglemoss, it would gladden the hearts of many collectors & your followers.

Going back in time instead of moving forward. Discovery was a stretch with that ships tech. Tech unheard of in any other star trek series. Unimaginable tech with its spore drive? Going back in time again back to the klingon wars. Picard to me was also a disappointment. There os one quargent in the galaxy that is still unexplored. The beta quargent other galaxies. A new ship, evolution, with all the tech from the other quargents we have explored already. This ship has an advanced cloke. Borg resistant armour and torpedos from the delta quadrant. Jemadar firepower from the gamma quadrant. Space folding speed and time displayment detection from alpha quadrant.

We caught a lotta flak for that. <br /><br />As for the "weird collective of companies", it's actually a mishmash of brands that a few of us created that, once in a collaboration, turns into a word salad as bad as the logos you have to sit through before a movie starts. FanWraps started as an auto decal company that branched out into merch, hence the brand FanWares. SphereWerx is the legal name of Fourth Castle, which I did because nobody could pronounce "SphereWerx", and "EMCE TOYS" is my licensed toy brand, and "Nanoforce" is the format we created.<br /><br />As you can imagine, during the course of this project, we realized it was time for a brand consolidation. It's only 2 guys, there's no reason for us to sound like we've got a board of directors.<br /><br />Thanx again for this great piece.
