- This is the crowdfunded die-cast U.S.S Enterprise from Tomy. I modified the base to add spot lights, a wi-fi relay, and a sound module that plays a 13 minute montage of ship effects when you press the button or activate by voice command from Alexa. I do similar mods with my other vehicles and figures. Video is just me walking around it with an iPhone but it captures the look and feel of it in my room.
Spot lights:
Jorunhe 1.5w LED Mini Surface Mounted Light Jewelry Cabinet Lamp Spotlight with Online PWM Dimmer (Pack-6,Cold White 6000k) a.co/d/5BKsk3M
Sound module:

For the price this ship is pretty awesome 😎
I have this, and for some reason, that I don't understand is this is apparently crap so someone said on my vid...
Great vid ,great lighting ,great ship!!!🖖live long and prosper!!
😂 Yeah - a lot of negative comments can probably be traced back to promises made by Tomy on multiple videos that you would not see any seams or evidence of screws. So, the backers’ expectations were very high - myself included. When they didn’t deliver, I was very disappointed - but in the end, I still think it is an awesome replica and I’m glad I didn’t back out. Your commenter should check out the secondary market prices 😊. Enjoy your ship!!!
This is how every fan pictures their model in their head, great job on the whole production. Listening to this video is proof of the incredible sound scape they created for the series. Those sounds were just as important to the show as the visuals. I truly respect those sound engineers, the unsung hero's of Star Trek. And the sound trigger button you installed looks factory, that's really impressive.
Beautiful job of lighting! Looks great for just using your phone. I'm hoping you do a vid with something other than on your phone. And steadier. She's a beauty.
I want them make the refit ,NCC1701A,D,E & G
I feel like I am going to take off soon lol. Cool!
This is the nicest Enterprise I've ever seen. Well done.
Like the Norman Conners 1970s Song Featuring Michael Henderson "you are my starship" Come Beam Me Up Tonight. (smile)
You know what we like🖖👍
This is by _Tomy_ ? Damn. That's really quite impressive stuff.
Thanks!
Should be for the price.
@@jamesyoung6379Yes. It’s quite a bargain. Nothing out there comes even close. A die cast replica for $599 US including tax and shipping. Amazing.
@@jamesyoung6379 it's a bargain for that level of quality. Any other company would have charged $1000+
What I find truly worthy about this model is they got the rotating and flashing nacelle lights 💯 right! 😍🤩
The one thing you didn't do, and this is an issue with this model, was support for the saucer. you got the vid in and i love it. I came up for a fix. Phaser fire to support the saucer
The support is not necessary...
I don't know what this means. Phaser fire for "support" the saucer?
Must be a mistranslation by the Universal Translator.
@@DennisCosteaJr Probably referring to this: m.ruclips.net/video/k3om0Jg2IeE/видео.html
Great lighting set up evoking the TMP refit while not modifying the TOS design like _some_ people suggested they should have done.
That's Beautiful! 🖖
Fantastic job! Now who's gonna be the first person to pop off the screw covers and see if we can take it apart! (Not me) (Yet, anyway)
this is great! look into motion stabilization, it might be interesting to you.
Ooh, I really like those spotlights.
Looking good, nice spotlights. 🖖🦘
Thanks for your videos. They helped convince me to keep my order during “plugholegate” 😂.
That is very cool!!! 🇺🇸👍🙋♂️🖖🏻🖖🏻🖖🏻
I will NEVER stop kicking myself for not snagging one of these when they were available. 😢
Light leakage through the secondary hull seam and the screw plugs are a real let down especially since Tomy said they would patch them :( The Master Replica is definitely a better model.
I don’t disagree about the plugs and seams. But looking back on the purchase (I was a backer), if I knew everything we know now and it was available today for the $599 I paid (including shipping AND tax) I would still buy it in a heartbeat. I’m not alone since as of today (3/24/24), the average price of the last 5 sold on eBay is $1800 (including shipping) - and that doesn’t include tax which for me would put it just shy of $2k.
A fabulous Christmas Gift ❤
Wooooow!!
If they could have a wall plug in option.
I have mine still sitting in my den in the brown Tomy shipping box. I'm looking for a place to display (which my wife will allow:) I've read on several threads that you can't leave the saucer section "unsupported". Is that true?
Congrats. You’ll love it. I guess I’ll be a test case for long term saucer droop because I’m leaving mine unsupported. But balance-wise there is no problem as long as you don’t bump into it. Totally understand the wife part lol.
That's not true. The entire assembled ship will sit comfortably on the main display stand.
I think it will too. However, I have no proof it will...I bought a hat stand (clear stand and clear one a clear plastic cup and will make my own support)
Personally I'm not risking it on mine. Mine sits on the dining room table so bumping could be an issue. The thing is a beast, all pretty much made of diecast metal, but perched on a wobbly base with 2 plastic pegs going into the secondary hull. Will the plastic eventually dry out and become brittle? Will stress from a little bit of wobbling cause cracks in the plastic? Who knows.
If you have pets, probably want to use the saucer support.
You could almost attach a Command hook with the removable tape pull-tab to the bottom of the secondary hull then figure out a stand design to interlock with the hook's "face". Since those come in various hold strengths and "claim" not to leave any residue when the hook's tab is pulled to release it.
I would want to test that idea out on a less valuable mock-up object and see whether it proves correct. Only logical.
Some finest Starfleet engineering and improvisation that would pay tribute to the original designers pulling this off in the first place!
would not that void your warrenty?
Absolutely! But not for the ship itself. I haven’t modified it in any way.
BRAVO TOMMY!
Thanks!
That is very effective lighting. Excellent job, wow!! And where did you get those amazing sound effects from? Don’t tell me you are a sound engineer as well😅👍
Ha. No, there are plenty of Star Trek sound effect clips around on RUclips. I just edited together the ones I liked.
Looks like a $1500 ship. Would love to get a remote set up on the lighting. I will definitely order one when they come back in stock
Brilliant idea the sounds!

How come the rear of the warp engines dont light up????🤔🤔😖😖
Roddenberry considered illuminating the rounded domes on the rear of the nacelle pods back in 1966 but backed off due to cost.
They were never lit up
@@chrishuisman769 they should have been... 😭
@@chrishuisman769 that depends on which model of interprise your talking about 🤔👍🏼🙏🏼 some did have the glow in the rear warp engines 😉👍🏼😀
@@Dragonewiz Just not this one 😇
Where did you get the spotlights? Part #’s
