I am ridiculously excited about The Homer, lol! I've read rumors that a Retro Entertainment version will be released too (although I will probably never find one in my area).

I'm also somewhat excited about the USS Vengeance. Well, as excited as anyone really can be about the USS Vengeance, LOL ! Overall, I haven't really liked how Mattel has handled their Star Trek line, as well as the Enterprise in the primary HW line. Back in '09, I bought a few of those Mattel Star Trek ships, and while some were good, some (like the old and new Enterprises) were terrible. And to make matters worse, the plastic stands have a tendency to snap and break very easily. Also, before I found my HW Enterprise, a friend of mine bought two, and he claims that immediately after opening them, the paint and lettering rubbed off. I learned from his mistake and kept mine in the packaging (which I typically NEVER do). After being so disillusioned by Mattel's treatment of the franchise, I chose not to buy the Into Darkness Blu-Ray set that came with the Vengeance. Despite my bad experiences, I think I'll still snag a Vengeance once it's released. Whew... sorry for my verbosity, I just really like Star Trek, and I've just been irritated/disappointed for so long that Mattel dropped the ball on their Star Trek ships.
