Diamond Select Star Trek Enterprise-B Issues
 

Hi all,

I am wondering about my experience. I just ordered this ship from BBTS.com. I get it in, take a look, and the ship looks dirty! Not dust that wipes off, but just brownish coloring....blurry lines, etc. It looks intentional.

I did some research and found some reviews for the ship on Amazon, where others had this reaction and apparently DS is saying it was a design choice. I could buy into this....however, I check out some reviews online, and the ship they got DOES NOT have the wear and tear look to it.

Does anyone have an explanation or more information on this?

I want to add this ship to my dads fleet, but they're too much $ these days.

While I agree that $60~$70 is expensive, I don't think it is too expensive given the niche market this is for.
