I’m not a fan of knick-knacks. They crowd everything and collect dust. I’m more a minimalist sort of guy. Give me simple lines and less stuff and I am happy. Still, I’d make an exception for this sweet U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-C die-cast sculpture.
This particular sculpture comes from Eaglemoss Collections, and is based on the rare NCC-1701-C that appeared in the 1990 episode of The Next Generation, “Yesterday’s Enterprise.” It’s pretty cool, though I’d rather have the good old NCC-1701-D.
The sculpture is 10-inches long and comes with a display base. It also comes with a collector’s magazine featuring product artwork and the history of the ship and its design. Entertainment Earth will take your pre-order right now for March 2019 shipping. The statue and magazine will set you back $74.99 and untold amounts of time dusting.
