I just got this and I have to say there are several problems with it. First, the engines are not lined up properly. When looking at it from the front one nacelle is lower than the other. Second, On the box it says NCC 1701-A, but there is no A it is just NCC 1701. Third, It is not all Diecast, most of it is made of a very bendible plastic and this makes it very fragile. In summery, save your money, or try to find the Corgi Model of the original Enterprise, it at least is made with some quality.
I will not be buying the other ships in this series and I hope that Corgi starts releasing more ships in their Star Trek line.
