This is one that you can only pose from certain angles.

And for this price it is lacking in a lot of details such as the phaser array on the bottom of the dish.

I'm not a Star Trek guy but this looks pretty sick

uh, I'm far from a Star Trek expert, but is the ship from the source material really so... stubby? squished along the front-rear axis? from the top, it looks wrong to me.

my only other thought: I NEED the Riker and Picard faceprints.

Boldly bricking forward, we still can't find reverse!

Looks cool, but no interest in Star Trek. I just don't like soap operas.

"

I agree. The plates they used for the saucer section sort of make it look like a big gray stop sign. Not Lego's best work, that's for sure.

The minifigs look great though! They really nailed the details like Picard's Earl Gray tea, and Data's cat.

I love TNG and this should be right up my alley, but ... $400. Oof. I can't do it. I suspected this was going to happen.

Now I'm curious if this is going to be like D&D (one massive set and that's it), or is this going to be an ongoing theme with sets at various (hopefully cheaper) price points. There's a million things Lego could do with a Star Trek theme. But ... there was a million things they could have done with the D&D theme as well. So who knows.

Black hair on Data is an odd choice.

Really hope this does well so we can get the classic A or preferably to me, a Kelvin timeline A

Booooo. Original cast would have been much better.

I like it, it's a beautiful model, & the minifgures look great. I just don't see myself buying this one. If they had done like a model of the bridge you can interact with, I'd be more into that.

Elementary, my dear Data

Also, is Lego making up for something? So much good news in one day? and where is Tasha?
Or Q? Or any of those random people sitting to the left of Data who die every 5 seconds?

This somehow looks odd. The saucer section is too small, the deflector dish is too large.
They carefully managed the photo positions to make it look at least acceptable.
The shuttle pod looks like some school intern designed it.

The price and stickers are totally unacceptable for me but I will bricklink the figures later I guess.

The strange feeling, at least if you're from Germany, is that it's all been done before, except for the minifigs, and better and cheaper as well. Even if LEGO now do rehashes of all the Star Trek sets BlueBrixx offered over the years, it still wouldn't be anything new.
Maybe if they do a line of "set" sets, like the bridge(s) or other interior spaces, which BlueBrixx never got around to, but if they only do ships and accessories, well, we've already had plenty of those.

no Spock...

If I could drop $400 by the 28th, I'd even venture out on Black Friday to get this.

Not much of a Star Trek fan, but I did think it would be cool if this was a playset you could fit the figures in and swoosh it around.

Guess my bank account can take a quick breather.

Very glad that Lego has got Star Trek, although I have no interest whatsoever in The Next Generation. Just hoping the path is now open for the original.

Can't wait to get this. It coincides with a week off work I'd already booked off so this is perfect!

Maybe not BlueBrixx in general. But their Star Trek sets were awesome, especially the mid-size and UCS-style ships.
I recently built the mid-size DS9 Runabout, the Stargazer and the Excelsior, and I am so glad I got them when they were still available, because we will never get anything like them from LEGO, and even if, not at the same price and quality.

It was nice knowing you, wallet.

They will get the hardcore Trek fans no matter what but I think the ship straight up looks terrible.

They did a good job making the enterprise D out of lego, but The enterprise D is just straight up ugly.

Ro and the shuttlecraft being GWP exclusives on a FOUR HUNDRED DOLLAR SET is just scummy. Way to expensive

I should be first in line for this, as I grew up with TOS and the Next generation. Life long trekkie.

However I just can't find the love inside for this. Too many details are just not right. The curve on the nacelle pylons, the deflector dish the connecting neck to the saucer. Just not quite there. I know it is lego....but speed champions seem to do a fine job with difficult shapes....and it is £350 which is a very premium product.

Will await the reviews, perhaps looks better in the flesh, as such.

Grew up with TNG and its one of my favourite shows ever. But im seriously underwhelmed by this. Dont like the proportions or the shape of the saucer section. The mini shuttles are poor and docking bay just a hole in the top.

I never buy Star Wars ships either as they are just big hunks of grey plastic. Id have preferred the bridge or 10 Forward or an Away Mission set personally. Something better to display.

Hope it makes a lot of people happy though. Its just not for me.

Can you call it DLC when it doesn't fit on the set at all? It's just another Star trek set. This is quite different from the Death Star situation.

I am surprised that the official announcement took this long.

I can’t wait to get these figs and recreate that Big Bang Theory Episode! :D

Of course I have to have it, I'm just dissapointed the under side of the saucer section looks so blocky and ugly.

If KRE-O can give the enterprise a usable interior for 432 pieces in 2014 for $60, surely a $400 LEGO set in the big 2025 can do the same... right?

I can't say which is more accurate, but I have to say that I do think the Lego version looks just plain better......well except for the stickers, obviously. I mean, can no one at Lego see the color difference? Or do they just don't care, because they know enough people will buy it anyway regardless of how shitty the quality is?

I bought a Bluebrixx set a few months ago ( https://www.bluebrixx.com/en/prod/108339/futuristic-antigravity-artillery/ ). It was cheaper than a LEGO set, but after shipping and custom taxes, the price more than doubled and the set was not cheap anymore. Plus the building experience was terrible. And I mean it: terrible. Never again."
Just a remark. That's not a set by BlueBrixx, like their Star Trek line of sets.
It's a set by a company called ModBrix, one of many alternate brands that are subpar. Yes, BlueBrixx sells ModBrix products (as well as tons of sets by other manufacturers) in their shop, but they are not comparable in any way to the Star Trek sets BlueBrixx offered under their "Pro" line.

I was wondering how on earth lego would pull it off considering the, in my opinion, poor shaping on the bluebrix models. There are some odd looking proportions and design choices but lego's expertise definitely shows through. Very glad it's not the original enterprise to be honest, as I doubt I would have picked up a model of that ship, but this one is definitely going on my shelf one day

The minifig lineup is third-season, given it has Georgi in his gold uniform, Dr. Crusher, and Guinan. Wesly should have been in his "acting ensign" uniform instead of his first-season sweater.

I may need to buy this.

FINALLY!!!

I like how the Trekkies get really giddy about this set. Good for them!

Personally I don't think this a very attractive ship (its 60s design roots can't be denied) and I think it is even less attractive in Lego form. And even if I liked the ship itself more, I'm not looking for yet another pricey display only set. I already have one of those...

There's much to love about TBBT, but their references to Star Trek (and the associated guest appearances) are some of my favourite moments of the show.

Imho that's a weird way of looking at it.

And as for 10497, while it's clearly nostalgia bait, it's also a very swooshable playset with plenty of play features for kids. 21309 otoh, yeah, not so much. (Even though it's also swooshable)

I would be totally sold except for that under saucer aspect, It looks like it was designed in 2005 a bit too angular but I’m not saying no just have some reservations.

Spaceship. Spaceship! SPACESHIP!
Looks awesome. LEGO Group - take my money!!!

It aint perfect, but it's d*****d fine. It's a next to impossible shape to pull off in System. Some colouring choices are... unexpected. I'd love to have seen at least Tasha, but I can hope for future sets including her, Miles, Barclay, Q...

Also, Troi looks better in uniform, an alternate torso/leg combo might have been nice :D

A rare day one purchase, but that GWP is FOMO as hell.

@bamaker said:
"Where's the bridge?"

They have to save something for the next sets...

I like it! I very nearly love it. I do have quibbles about the long edges of those plates and tiles used to evoke the curves of the saucer section, but that’s the nature of the beast, and the overall shaping is good.

We’ve come to expect great minifigures in licensed themes, but there’s a particular creative choice here I think warrants special attention. They’ve gone with slightly simplified styling that omits the rank pips (and the frequent feminine curves). That might have been just because the pips would be minute and close to the top edge anyway, but it winds up being really useful, I think. It means that there’s no differentiation for standard Starfleet uniform torsos except for division colors (and Worf’s baldric), which makes it easy to swap them out to MOC minifigures of other characters or whatever; one can build a whole crew. But man, those sci-med blues are going to be in demand on Bricklink; I just hope some more sets come along that offer more of them.

I hate that something as desirable as that Type 15 Shuttlepod with Ro Laren is another limited edition GWP, but the set itself looks good, and for once I anticipate actually being in a position to get the Big Expensive Thing around release day, so I’m on board to get that, too. With all of two sets, I guess we can call Star Trek a “theme”, now. And yes, I’m hoping for more, particularly including rep from TOS / TAS, the TOS movies, DS9, Voyager, the TNG movies, Lower Decks, and Prodigy. Enterprise, Discovery, SNW, and likely Starfleet Academy will also be worth considering for me, as long as they look good and I can afford them.

Anyway, a solid start to a possible full-blown theme I’ve both yearned for and dreaded for years now.

GWP are such total bullshit now.

Great set. I do wish it was TOS rather than TNG, but I have high hopes we’ll get the original squad eventually!

For those of you commenting about it looking kind of garbage, there's a reason for that, and I'm brave enough to say it.

The Galaxy class is a garbage design. Not necessarily TLG's fault, and they did their best making it as pretty as possible at this scale. It's better than most fan interpretations that I've seen (including my own.) They've done a great job at streamlining a difficult shape to build with LEGO as much as possible and keep the detail. Also, plus that it appears that there are a *lot* of printed parts in here, pleasantly surprised that it looks like the sloped pieces around the edge of the command hull are printed.

I have the large scale BlueBrixx Klingon Bird-Of-Prey on display in my office with the joke Haynes owners workshop manual next to it. The model is solid and looks perfect. I have to say that it was a fun build and I look forward to letting it destroy this Lego 1701-D just as soon as I get a Lursa and Betor pair of minifigures custom made. Of course this 1701-D will be fine, as long as I don't let Deana Troi drive it.

Will it though? The Indiana Jones line sold well and that has yet to be followed up."

Old licenses can do well as one-off sets, but to be whole, ongoing themes, they want ongoing media support. The Indiana Jones theme came to life alongside the two most recent movies, but there was over a decade between them, mostly with no indication the fourth movie would be followed up by a fifth, and right now there’s no indication of any more Indy productions in the future. Star Trek, OTOH, has never gone away for more than five years or so at most, and there have been new screen releases (movie, television, whatever) every year since 2016; there’s a currently-running TV show whose endpoint has been announced but which still has two seasons left to go, which should run it into 2027; another show is waiting to make its debut in January, and similarly has (at least) two seasons ahead of it, that should likewise take it to at least ‘27.

And for back catalog, there is simply much much more to make sets of with Star Trek than with Indy. Putting aside books and comics and videogames and whatnot, the Indiana Jones franchise is five movies and a short TV series, with no concrete plans for anything more beyond the 40 to 45 hours of screen time of material that now exists. Star Trek currently consists of 11 TV series (with a 12th arriving in a little over two months), 13 theatrically-released features plus a direct-to-streaming one, and a handful of shorts; there are over 900 discrete installments (episodes, movies, and shorts) totalling over 600 hours of screen time.

That’s no guarantee, of course; Star Trek has never been quite the same merchandising goldmine Star Wars has, despite the most fervent wishes of the Paramount / CBS / Viacom corporate empire. But there’s still a lot of potential there with Star Trek. I love Indiana Jones as well, and there are specific things from that franchise I’ve wanted sets of for years, but I see a lot more possibilities for an ongoing theme with Trek.

(Granted, I said the same about Doctor Who, and that license never made it beyond the Ideas set and two LEGO Dimensions packs, so what do I know…)

My immediate thoughts are will it sag over time? And how far can the Frisbee bit go when you throw it?

Lego have done Star Trek sets for years, they first started making them in 1999.

IMHO 21309 is about as swooshable as a baby is swooshable - you have to move at a very gentle pace, keep the swooshy very near to your body and hold it in a way that no parts can get bumped anywhere. If you hold 21309 at the wrong place and move too briskly, there is a high risk of it separating (it is still quite a heavy model). This is a fairly complex model, if a segment ever falls on the floor an shatters, might as well start from scratch with the instructions. 10497 on the other hand: one of the best space set ever made - I know it does not command the same respect as 497 because 497 came first but 10497 is a significant improvement over the original - too bad they did not make it with a landing base.

So this is LEGO 2025 ...

BIG grey sets for display. Do not touch, MOC, play or even evolve as a human.

1701-D is my least favorite Enterprise... I love the show, and this is a good rendition of it, but really prefer the refit or the -A. Minifig selection looks good, too, though. I'd have a tough choice if it were in the < $200 range, but at $400 it's firmly not for me.

Also, Riker's accessory really should have been a chair.

@wizpip said:
"For those of you worried it's not the A, not a bridge set, etc... I'm sure those will come, especially if this sells well."

Is there any need for any other TNG sets though? Once they have done the main crew on the display stand for this set, I doubt there is much demand for more minifig scale sets with the same repeated characters in. If they were planning more minifigure sets, there was no need to add them all here and it could have been done at a lower price point. And if they do smaller sets while this is out, the small sets will make this one redundant for those wanting the minifigures.

Maybe they will do other variants of the TV show with the original cast or the new TV series at least that way, they don't have to repeat the characters again.

Ehh… really not. Aside from a fair amount of variation even within one series, different eras of Trek have totally different Starfleet uniform designs, and even within the same era can have different uniform styles for different postings, as seen with DS9 and concurrent episodes of TNG or Voyager. And that’s just within Starfleet, not even touching civilians, or the countless alien powers and civilizations with their own distinctive looks.

Hell, if for some reason they wanted to, they could do a “CMF” series devoted to a single Star Trek character - Kirk, say - that offered 12 or 16 totally different looks for just that one character, never mind a series they’d actually do.

What? 380€? No way!

The full set of minifigures will be expensive, but will be cheaper than the set as a whole. This is the type of set where the main model will sell well by itself as no everyone will want the figures and just want the ship, and the minifigures will also sell well as a group to anyone wanting just the figures for minifigurescale MOCs. And split like that will make the reseller money.

Of course someone wanting just the figures could buy the set and sell off the ship themselves to save a bit more than buying from a reseller. Especially if they buy early and get the GWP which will be expensive/hard to get for collectors or good to sell depending on viewpoint.

That is assuming that they do it across the whole franchise and not for a specific series. As for uniforms looking different, look at what they have done here. There is a red one, a blue one and a yellow one. The two red and two yellow ones look exactly the same. So if they applied that to Kirk's era, I'd expect them to do one yellow one for Kirk, Chekov, Sulu, one blue one for Spock and McCoy and one red for Scott and Uhura and maybe a few generic redshirts. Rather than a CMF, they might as well put them all into a set, add in loads of small bricks to build a bridge and some equipment on a plate build base and charge £200 for it.

I'll probably get some of the minifigs in the second-hand market, but the set doesn't interest me, even though I am a Trek fan.

The original and A had circular saucer sections. D was a wide oval. E was a long oval, I think. Can’t remember what B or C looked like.

Thankfully I never seen a second of star trek so I will have no need to purchase this. Price way too extreme for people who are not hard core trekkies. The figures look nice. But the model is basically just for display only with nothing for the minifigures to interact with. Which is different than star wars models which are often minifigure scale so people who never seen the franchise can use it as a fun toy. Not that are any people who haven't seen star wars

They hinted on the live stream that if it does well there may be more... which suggests to me they've already designed more.

You could have a Yar set with Armus, A bridge set with the crew again (maybe in different outfits), something Q related, A Voyager with crew, DS9 with crew, etc etc. I wouldn't be surprised if a great many sets come out of this. TNG, VOY, and DS9 were all released in the era where many of us just hit our 40s, and we're perceived as being ready to invest our life savings into this. And they're not wrong.

Plus of course, there's the 1701-A... and if they produce a Klingon Bird of Prey I can almost guarantee it will come with a whale.

To me there is only one Enterprise, and it belongs to Kirk and Spock. Just saved 380 Euros :-)

I would have been tempted by the shuttle if it was a stand alone set, but these adult only high price point sets are tiring me out. It would be nice to get some more affordable sets aimed at adults… hopefully the not Doc Brown’s Delorian is a taste of things to come.

Je ne suis pas absolument fan, mais je le trouve très réussi.

Yikes, those stickers are matched terribly! The new hair molds do look nice, though.

"I will play devil's advocate here and say that I prefer the BlueBrixx version.
About the same size, all prints (and quite a few more than on this one too) and at half the price."

In case anybody is curious, as I was, this is the BlueBrixx version in question: https://www.merlinsbricks.com/sets/bb-104184/

Everybody is entitled to their opinion, but that design looks vastly inferior to me, especially the saucer."

I fell for the BlueBrixx hard sell as well and although I couldn't find any Star Trek sets on their website I was rather taken with UCS (or their version of it) Robocop. And that's not a line that Lego are ever going to release, even at twice the price and with stickers.

I was excited hearing LEGO would do star trek, but this is a dissapointment.
The hard angles on the dish really doesn't make it look good.
The fact that it has no interior virtually turns it into a grey blob of plastic...considering that, the price is simply outrageous.
I really really hope LEGO will make a playset version.
But if this is the future for LEGO star TREK, then I'm afraid this line is going to be a failure...
