As excited as I have been about the release of the new "2500" range, I found to my disappointment that I was unable to reach to commiting to £100 worth of Starship goodness. This was largely because the pre-order period occurrred over the Christmas period - only the most expensive time of the...

The contents of the Fed fleet box appeared to have changed again. No "new" cruisers? Not complaining, I far prefer the "older" vessels, but I am surprised. I suppose this way you actually get proper squadrons of the smaller vessels, which perhaps is more practical for them. (Also, I guess...

Right on cue! Thank you! :D (studies fleet box list) Hmm interesting. Amongst other things the Feds have two old light cruisers, a strike cruiser, a fast cruiser, two heavy cruisers, one battle cruiser... nice, nice, lovely. I'm a happy chappie. Interestingly, no command cruiser model? The...

As I said formerly, I think that was a mistake on Steve Cole's part. (As all powerful and godlike as he is, he does make mistakes occasionally). Note the absence of a Command Cruiser in that initial list. I still think that when he wrote "battle cruiser" he meant to write "Command Cruiser"...

There has been a mini done for the (CS) Strike Cruiser, as well as for the Heavy Command Cruiser (CB). So both will make an appearance somehow. I am hopeful that the Strike Cruiser will indeed be in the Fleet box, together with the Fast Cruiser. I've never heard of a Heavy Command Cruiser being...

The Heavy Command Cruiser being a limited "promotional" item, possibly given away as a bonus for (almost) free, for doing something like making an order? or spending a certain amount? or pre-ordering? Or something along those lines, has been hinted at...vaguely. No specifics. Hence my...

Thank you Rambler! :0 (and ooh, thank you Mongoose!) I would be very happy with the presence of a fast heavy cruiser, Command Cruiser and two Battlecruisers :) P.S Looking foward to hearing about how the "promotional" Heavy Command Cruiser is going to become available "at possibly no cost"(?)...

As flawed as the show was, Enterprise established that the Constitution class Defiant did indeed have rear facing phasers. But yes, ADB added the rear facing phasers. And the ph-3. And the Drones. Thirty years of development makes for a lot of changes! :D On another note: Thank you for the...

As far as I am aware there is no such thing as a Fed Battlecruiser, there is only the Heavy Battlecruiser. Looking at the context of the list, Could Steve perhaps mean COMMAND Cruiser, rather than Battle Cruiser(?) I love the look of these lists. So these will be what, around £80 a box?

Having noted the (most welcome) release scedule for the next six months, I note that the Starfleet releases appear to all be boxed sets. Will Mongoose be selling starships individually at all? Also, will Mongoose be releasing an equivalent of box 91, the Franz Joseph ships?
