      I’m going to withhold judgement on it until we see the topside. The geometry on the D is just about a worst case scenario for lego parts and ventral fore (the neck and the ‘bulging’ part of the saucer in particular) is probably going to be the worst looking angle. Hopefully this leak is them trying to set some expectations iwanttobelieve.jpg

    10356 Star Trek: USS Enterprise D

    They couldn’t even bother to work in a 1701 into the product code. Literally unforgivable.

    Personally, I’m stoked and set some money aside for it when the first rumors came out early this year.

    Is it perfect looking? No, it’s LEGO being used to create a ship that is all swoops and curves.

    But I don’t care that it looks like LEGO. I have been waiting for official Star Trek LEGO since the 1980s.

    I didn’t know what I was expecting from LEGO Star Trek… I mean, I didn’t really have any expectations… But this looks kinda ugly and disappointing.

    I don’t know. Maybe ships that with significant rounded sections don’t work in LEGO.

    This looks like the Enterprise-D that Lego would have released in 2005 and already replaced it a few years ago with a larger and more realistic-looking version.

    (Compare first versions of major Star Wars sets from the 1990s like the Millennium Falcon to the most current versions.)

    This year’s exclusive Black Friday model is the heavily anticipated LEGO Icons branded set, 10356 Star Trek: USS Enterprise D.

    What does that mean? That they only sell it on that one day, and will never make more? Or will it be a normal LEGO set that just launches on that day?

      Want to know as well. The price might be okay if it is on sale.

      Apparently they made a new mold for Worfs minifig hair. So it would be strange if they only used it once.

      Seems unlikely that it will only be on sale for one day. Last year’s Black Friday set is still available, for example.
