You may remember the first post after last years Eclectorama Holiday Hiatus, I was gushing about Playmates Toys returning to the Trek market. I have seen the new Trek merchandise from Playmates Toys and I can honestly say good or bad, I am happy to see some new Trek on the pegs. Also recently my "brother-in-toys" Eric at Toyriffic clued me in to some Art Asylum Trek figures at TRU (that's Toys R Us in the biz), more on this later on. More importantly than all that, I ended that post with a wish of getting a re-release of one of my favorite AMT models from the Star Trek line.
I can't freaking believe this model is going to be re-released. The Trek Fairy has been listening and if I'm lucky come this December she'll tip off Santa and I'll have one of these under the tree. More than likely I will check the web daily till it's released and then pre order it, then I'll check daily until it ships...
Anyway it is truly a happy day to be a classic Trek fan, I'll have some more posts soon, I now return you to your regular scheduled programing, and most importantly... Live Long and Prosper!
Update: I also have my eye on that sweet NCC-1701 A model!

I wonder if Nimoy is getting anything for that. I know he is going to need money for film.
Glad you're back CB - and glad to see that there's a ton of new Trek stuff for you to ramble on about in '09!
Awesome news. I made at least two of these in the mid-70s. I had a neighbor who even painted the ones he'd made. I went through several of the communicator/phaser/tricorder models. I'd love to see those get re-released.
