4.0 out of 5 stars I'm very pleased with mine., January 21, 2005

First of all, the model in the picture on this site is not assembled correctly- the two engines (nacelles) are actually a bit longer and have rounded ends.

The finished Enterprise has a nice weight to it and is fun to fly around. It would have been nice if it was easier to separate the saucer from the main ship (like in the show), but I'm guessing that wasn't possible for structural integrity reasons (the saucer is heavy). But overall, it looks surprisingly good. In addition to the section that holds the nacelles being smooth, there is a specialized bridge section which is also smooth and balances the smooth/blocky aesthetic. My only complaint might be that the underside lacks detail compared to the top (a frequent complaint of mine for Lego, i.e. Millennium Falcon, great detail up top, nothing underneath).

I like the Captain Picard figure included. The head sculpt looks pretty close to the character, who is bald. I think it's better that he has a smooth head rather than having a connector on the top (Lego characters look great with hair or hats, no so good bald - look at the NBA figures). The weapon looks very much like the phaser used in the show - much better than the guns that Lego gives to the Star Wars characters.

As for play value, the scale is not right for this to be a "play set" - it would have to be massive to have any meaningful interior play areas - and which ones would be included? The stories on the show take place all over the ship, so even if there was a bridge and engine room interiors, it would still be lacking - if the ship was to scale for a standard Megablock/Lego figure, the ship would have to be the size of a house - simply not possible.

The saucer section is relatively complicated to build - this is not a set for younger kids. But for teenage and (more likely) adult fans of Star Trek and Lego/Mega blocks, this is a nice set.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good buy for Star Trek fans, July 4, 2006

This review is from: Mega Bloks Star Trek Enterprise (Toy)

No, it's not Lego, but it's still a pretty good building model. It took me a few hours to put the ship together and it's a very stable design. I really like the display stand that came with it also. The Captain Picard minifig is pretty dumb looking, Mega Blok minifigs have really short legs, but all in all it was well worth the sale price I paid. If you're a Star Trek fan this would be a good buy.

I received this for Christmas and I have to admit--it's a lot of fun. It will take you about four to five hours to put together (I put it together in stages). The pieces fit well and the instructions are, for the most part, fairly straight forward. I was shocked that it took 50 pages of instructions, but you'll understand why once you get into building the ship. It assembles in stages which is nice and you can take breaks as needed. My only real complaint is the instructions for assembling the saucer section are a bit confusing and hard to make out at times...but you can persevere. A great toy and a must have for any Star Trek fan!
