So glad I could pick up some discounted stuff as well... Not in this picture: the Stargazer, which is gift wrapped and will be handed over to my son later today. These will serve as presents over the next year or two.

Can you make a retro-emulator sleeper-PC out of it?

- no

Nice haul! I wish I'd known about the existence of these sooner. I'd definitely have gotten a bunch of these.

I don't suppose you know if there's another company that's gonna end up with the license? From what I can tell, this company has only had the license for a few years (since 2021, I think). Seems a pretty short run for a franchise this big.

- maybe lego'll grab it, idk, I hope not though, since lego makes a shitty and overpriced product these days

  Overpriced I'd agree with, but the quality seems to be as high as ever imo

  Really? That's not been my experience with modern sets

  I'm seeing credible-seeming rumours that Lego has acquired the license, but nothing official yet...

  Would still love instructions for a 5 thousand piece Enterprise and Bat'leth for mini figs:D

This looks like a Chinese knockoff, I'm surprised it's legit.

- BlueBrixx is a German company making “Lego compatible” brick toy sets. Looks like they aim for more adult oriented sets hence the Star Trek and Star gate licenses. They also seem to produce military sets which Lego usually avoids.

  They also do hilarious knockoffs of franchises they don't have the licence for. Like a pirate ship with black sails that is simply called N.P.B. (which stands for Not-Black-Pearl). The cool thing is the quality is comparable to Lego but the sets are more than half the price.

- Just guessing the entire brand is a lego knockoff

  Kind of, but it's actually good quality and a lot cheaper.

- Well that is a brand new sentence no one has ever said before.

  ...my wife is mortified when she sees what the beta magic cards we ebayed to make rent go for these days...

Really? That's disappointing. I have the original Enterprise and the Defiant in the size you have as well as the Spock figurine. They were really nice products overall.

Yes, me too, got the Defiant and the DS9 Station (with another mini-Defiant).
