Make sure to include figures of the Dynamic Duo. I am excited to see the Batmobile done up right in 1/25th scale. Make sure to include figures of the Dynamic Duo.

I just purchased and imported a 1/350 1701-A kit which costed quite a bit to ship but it was worth it! I wish round 2 could get the rights to sell outside North America. I really want to get some of your hot rods and the Vulcan Shuttle but its seriously pricey to ship all this stuff. When the new movie Enterprise and hopefully Kelvin (hint hint!) come out it will be a must purchase for me! Please make the 09' Enterprise in a similar size to the other 1/350 models (eventhough the ILM scale is ridiculous!). Keep up the great work guys, I wasnt born the first time some of the these kits were issued and its great to finally get hold of them. Great to see that the K7 is coming back!

I would like to make a few suggestions, how about adding optional parts to the current D7 to do either tos or K'Tinga version. Same idea i think can be done when you get around to doing the 1/1000 Enterprise B, Do the Excelsior with added parts to make the B. Would like to see some more enemy ships , maybe both 1/1000 Bop. Or what about combo kits now that you are doing 1/2500 like a kit of the BoP that has both 1/1000 & 1/2500. Really you guys are doing a good job. So many kits comping so little money. very interested to see what you have planed for the rest of the year. Love what you guys have been doing.

VINCent would be a nice one to see after all these decades. They've said the RomBoP is missing parts, but that could be a fake out. Their survey from WF last year pointed to low interest in the Exp. Kit and with the Art Asylum stuff out there, why bother at all... The D-7 isn't uncommon on ebay, but maybe that's gonna sneak in again. Personally, I'd hate see Galileo come back without major retooling on the aft, but perhaps that could be it. A more accurate bridge would be cool, but a TMP bridge would be far cooler. Perhaps none of our guesses are correct and they (you R2 folks) are going to hit us from left field with a major knock-our-socks-off surprise... PS. When you guys released the green tin 1701, I was disappointed that it seemed like you were cashing in on the blue tin bonanza. However upon reflection, perhaps releasing a tin1701 every xmas with something different about is not a bad idea. Switching up to the 70's box art could be cool for the next release, but slowly adding/replacing current parts more accurate parts could lead to whole new tooling in several years time at a low annual investment that might be too expensive to do in one shot. Just a thought there... Thanks for all your efforts! Much success to the rebirth of sci-fi models!!! PS. Still dreaming of a 1/350 line of Reliant, Excelsior, KTinga and maybe Grissom... How about a 350 space dock? :D Or even better, a 1/350 tmp drydock... ??? Now there's a relatively 'cheap' tooling job insofar as it's piles of very few repeated patterns...

Need more work to afford it all. Keep them coming. Just picked up the Vulcan Shuttle from the LHS last week. Very nice. Man, I want the entire catalog! Need more work to afford it all.
