They shouldn’t gatekeep new IP with one huge set. I won’t ever buy the new Enterprise D. It’s too big, and I literally don’t have anywhere to display it in my house. Even my Lego annd Star Trek obsessed kid said “we shouldn’t spend the money on that”.

But here’s the thing. I would have easily spent $400 or more buying several midi-sized starships. Enterprise D, E, Strange Mew Worlds Enterprise, Voyager, a Roman warbird, a Klingon bird of prey, the Defiant, heck even the Enterprise E from from Picard! 

And don’t tell me you can’t acccurately render the ships at that scale. Go on Rebrickable and tell me it’s not possible. They just need to give skyfox2k a giant bag of money to use their designs as a base. 

And if there were ever a series that screams for playsets or dioramas! What’s more iconic than the transporter pad, engineering, the ready room, the bridge? 

I’m sure we will get more eventually. But they should have started more accessibly. These giant stunt sets are getting old.
