- Unboxing a rare gem of a collectible model of the NCC-1701 refit from Art Asylum with lights and sound I picked up from CultTVman, I think this was re-released later by Diamond Select Toys.

You're so lucky those batteries didn't explode. What a great collectors item! I have 6 of these Diamond Select starships. The refit 1701, the Ent B, the D, regular and battle damaged E, and the Bounty from Voyage Home.
I was so very lucky with those garbage batteries, and I'm envious of your collection! Very cool!
I grew up in the 60s. In my day we did our own battle damage, usually involved firecrackers and lighter fluid. One of my favorite toys was a bag of little green army men and a book of matches. I still remember the sound they made when you set them on fire and drip them on the other soldiers, zip zip....zip....zip..
I grew up in NYC and sadly fireworks were banned or I'm sure we would have done that in the 80s with our toys as well.
@PitstainHobbies I personally subjected my Space 1999 Dinky Eagles to the house gas fire - because being die cast this simply resulted in a spot of reentry like carbon scoring...
The picture on the front and the front saucer damage on the model clearly relate to the self destruct sequence in The Search for Spock so that is a problem for Art Asylum selling this as a Wrath of Khan battle damaged Enterprise.
100% agree with you, I think that since Wrath of Khan was such a more popular movie they went with that branding instead of the self destruct from search for Spock. It is still a pretty nice model for being mass produced.
When you said "is that Christopher Lloyd", I saw Jar-Jar Binks. Mind you, I should've got new glasses years ago...
LOL in one movie the guy built a time machine out of a DeLorean, then another Movie his Bird of Prey gets stolen and turned into a time machine.....let that settle in.
I got an undamaged version of this one for a really good price about 4 years ago, not as nice of a box though, but the ship is completely intact, and still works. Probably the best iteration of the mold. The newer ones seem to have terrible paint jobs and a lot of misalignment, or are made of the pearlescent plastic that goes brittle easily.
I heard that the Diamond select re-issues had bad light bleed also.
@@PitstainHobbies Yeah, it was that pearlescent plastic they used, DSTs version of the Enterprise D had bad seams and light leakage (At least mine did). The Excelsior and Klingon BOP were great though. DST was always super hit and miss with the quality vs price, it's too bad we never got the Reliant that was supposed to scale with the Enterprise.
Cool 🖖
Thank you!
It may say wrath of khan but this is actually from search for Spock
Yep they marketed as TWOK since it was more popular as a movie is my guess.
Ian don’t forget the plastic collectable Star Trek coin in the see through window on the side of the box.
LOL you're right, good thing i kept the box for now.
Sorry Ian I bought the I undamaged Enterprise A he had. Put it up for display with no batteries.
I'm glad you got it, very happy for you....I am trying to save the credit card for the HCG Aliens Drop Ship
Destruct sequence one, code one, 1A....
LOL Code one, 1A, 2B.....
Actually, none of that battle damage is Star Trek 2. Not sure why they didn't just list it as Star Trek 3.
you are 100% correct which is why I called it a Star Trek 2/3 model, but toy companies will be toy companies I guess.
Spookily I too did this unboxing just a few days ago! I was really hesitant to pick this up given the damage was clearly the self destruct, they do clarify on the back of the box but any self respecting Trekkie is going to be puzzled by the text description up front vs the visual evidence!
@ExcelsiorsDomain agreed, it does seem misleading if you're not well versed.
Well most was inflicted in Star Trek II but I get what you mean, as it didn't get fixed during III it was just there already so visually it's all III.
Snuck another one in?
I had to buy something, didn't I?
There is so much wrong with this edition that it's not even funny, in fact it's quite insulting to ST collectors to brand it that way.
Brilliant rendition of the Sacrifice Refit, though, despite its faults.
I can't disagree with you, I really just got it as a nice little desk ornament for work, it does look decent but the branding and marketing are so wrong.
Torpedo never went thru the hall until star trek 7 the undiscovered country? Sorry the nerd in me couldn't let it go
That would be Star Trek VI sir. The nitpicker in me couldn't let that go! I know what you mean, but as I was reminded when I looked at this the Bird of Prey does get a shot in on Enterprise during III but I'd have to watch it again to know if the damage lines up.
Yeah I did make a blunder there it was undiscovered country when the "through and through" happened.
yeah it got a shot or two in but I dont think they went right through like ST VI
@@PitstainHobbies No indeed, but I did watch a short clip and the Ent failed to raise its shields when the Bird of Prey got its shot off, resulting in both ships being dead in space. So it's vaguely possible it dented the top of the saucer section at that point with shields down, but I don't know where the second mark would have come from. Might need more research. They could have goofed and added some Undiscovered Country damage, as the torpedo hits that didn't penetrate the shields still charred the hull.
@@PitstainHobbies Just watched the STIII clip as the self destruct kicks in and the two scorch marks are there on the top of the saucer, but in the Mutara nebula scrap in STII the saucer top half looks fine so I can only assume those marks were intended to be BOP induced battle damage...
