5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Movie, Awesome Replica
The movie is 5 stars. It took me over 4 hours to watch all the special features. JJ knows how to make special features. The picture quality on the Bluray is Jaw dropping clear. I think it looks even better then in the theater.

Now for the statue, very, very cool. Solid metal. The ship is brushed finished, the stand is all shiny chrome except for the inside...

3.0 out of 5 stars Looks better on Amazon than delivered
This is an ok collectible but I think its lacking some refinement. The item comes in a pretty low quality cardboard box. It could really use a nice see through plastic or glass case so it can be seen inside without opening it. The certificate doesn't individually number each piece. And the actual model is a little smaller than I thought it looked on amazon. Its a nice...

The movie is 5 stars. It took me over 4 hours to watch all the special features. JJ knows how to make special features. The picture quality on the Bluray is Jaw dropping clear. I think it looks even better then in the theater.

Now for the statue, very, very cool. Solid metal. The ship is brushed finished, the stand is all shiny chrome except for the inside of the badge symbol is more a brushed finish. It's pretty awesome. My only thing, I expected it to be taller, from the pics, it just seemed taller. Not a deal breaker, just shorter then what I had in my mind looking at the pic for 3 months.

Oh and the certificate of Authenticity, would have been nice if they were numbered 1 of 5000, they are not. Just says it is part of an exclusive limited edition run of 5,000.

It is nice to get the Blu-ray in its own package and not in some odd configuration like the Blu-ray Bat pod.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazon's STAR TREK Limited Edition BLU RAY GIFT SET (AMAZON EXCLUSIVE) IS AMAZING!!, November 19, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Star Trek Limited Edition Replica Gift Set (Three-Disc + Digital Copy) (Amazon Exclusive) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
STAR TREK was amazing in IMAX, and is jaw dropping on Blu Ray. The sound and picture are matched by none so far this year. Dolby True HD is one of my favorite sound formats, and it's perfect for STAR TREK. This is one of the best Blu Ray releases I have ever owned. I also love the digital copy for itunes. The movie kicks ass no matter what size screen you watch it on. Amazon has done it again with their AMAZON EXCLUSIVE series. The replica of the Starship Enterprise is just plain fantastic. I love the fact that it is a scaled replica, and also that it is metal as opposed to plastic. The detail is awesome. It stands on its own, and does not easily topple over. The sturdy insignia base is one of the best attributes of the replica. The limited edition size also adds to the appeal. To date this is the best and most fan conscious replica set I have seen or owned. Top notch Amazon. I hope to see Amazon continue to raise the bar in the AMAZON EXCLUSIVE series. Movie of the year... Collectible of the year.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much awaited Star Trek, November 18, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Star Trek Limited Edition Replica Gift Set (Three-Disc + Digital Copy) (Amazon Exclusive) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
What can I say, I'm a HUGE Trekkie. I know this was more expensive than just getting the Blu-ray alone, but I just couldn't help myself. The replica of the USS Enterprise, NCC 1701 from the movie is perfect. A heavy, solid and beautiful piece of Star Trek memorabilia that is well worth the price. Everything arrived on time and packaged with great care. This is one item that will be cherished for years to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars Replica is terrific, November 27, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Star Trek Limited Edition Replica Gift Set (Three-Disc + Digital Copy) (Amazon Exclusive) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
I'm a reasonably serious collector of STAR TREK replicas (I have a Master Replica's 33-inch ENTERPRISE, for instance). I'm very impressed by the all-metal ENTERPRISE included with this set. The ship itself has a brushed-metal finish, and the stand (which is NOT removable) has a shiny finish; it makes for an attractive pairing. The model is not hyper-detailed, which is a plus, I think, at this size: no windows on the hull, for instance. This is smaller than the Franklin Mint pewter starships of years gone by, but is a very impressive piece. I was one of those who hated the new ENTERPRISE design when I first saw stills of if, but it's growing on me, and this clean reproduction (not too much detailing but all the detailing that is there is correct) does a very nice job of showing off the design. I'm glad I bought it. (Oh, and it goes without saying, but the movie itself rocks, and the Blu-ray transfer is flawless.) -- Robert J.

Yes, I am the fanatic they make these for. With all the gift sets they made for the blu ray release of this movie, I have three copies. This one is really nice. It comes with a very detailed pewter replica of the famous starship. Great collectable with a great movie. If you collect models or miniatures, this one is for you.

3.0 out of 5 stars Star Trek Movie and Enterprise Replica, December 16, 2009

This review is from: Star Trek Limited Edition Replica Gift Set (Three-Disc + Digital Copy) (Amazon Exclusive) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
I like the movie, and have seen it a few times already. The Enterprise replica is all metal as described. The ship is a bit small, but well detailed on the chrome stand. However, as said by others, the packaging and certificate is a bit cheesy. Nothing special about the box to keep or even display the Enterprise, and the certificate isn't numbered, so there can be more than 5000 sets out there.

I'd rate it another star if the packaging was better, the ship was bigger, or the price was lower. So the question is: would you spend another $70+ for a metal Enterprise replica??

3.0 out of 5 stars It Certainly Is A Neat Little Metal Ship, November 25, 2009

This review is from: Star Trek Limited Edition Replica Gift Set (Three-Disc + Digital Copy) (Amazon Exclusive) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
The movie, despite some glaring flaws, is a rolicking good time from start to finish. It looks and sounds delicious on blu ray, and that includes the deleted scenes and other special features. As for this 91 dollar "gift set," you're really just paying an extra 70 bucks for the metal replica of the Enterprise that's included. It is very neat, good and hefty, though some of the details, particularly the lower part of the front of the nacelles don't look exactly "screen accurate." I understand there were suppposedly only 5,000 of these made, and I do like owning the neat little statue, but geez, 70 bucks? Kind of disappointing. I should have bought the Best Buy "special edition" which for only 15 bucks more included four wearable, screen-accurate metal Starfleet insignias. Eh, what can you do?

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazon exclusive Enterprise replica is a wonderful purchase!, November 21, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Star Trek Limited Edition Replica Gift Set (Three-Disc + Digital Copy) (Amazon Exclusive) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
This unboxing video says it all: [...]

Immediately on hearing about Amazon's exclusive version fo the Star Trek bluray release, I clicked over and ensured my pre-order. Then it was just waiting in antici--

--pation! It finally arrived, and it was worth the wait. The model is high quality and has a wonderful weight to it. I don't typically splurge on higher-cost collectibles such as this, but with its limited run, and great quality, I'm glad I did. Oh and the Bluray is also a great piece of work. The special features were very informative and entertaining, especially as they touched on the issues with 're-envisioning' the Star Trek universe, from many creative perspectives.

This was a fun little video to render! Thank you JJ for inventing the Abrams flare ;)

This review is from: Star Trek Limited Edition Replica Gift Set (Three-Disc + Digital Copy) (Amazon Exclusive) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
This is Thanksgiving day. I bought two of these for collector's purposes and I am not alone. I've seen them on ebay, and other dealers have them listed here. Its a good Christmas present, trekkers look to buy these for owning or collecting, hobbyists, sci-fi fans...then we're nearly at black friday...

5000 units? Seriously? No numbers listed on them?

These should have long since been sold out. And the fact that this is an Amazon exclusive means Amazon has full knowledge of this being fraudulent. There is zero chance this has not sold through. DVD Talk and a number of Blu-Ray/DVD review sites did specific reviews on this product and it was featured in a few magazines I read for gaming.

So AMAZON?????? What is the deal. I am thinking about returning them if they're not limited and this is, in fact, a lie.
