Diamond Select’s STAR TREK Starship Enterprise is so Hot It’s on Fire

“My God, Bones…What have I done?”

Once upon a time, readers, there were movies in which we actually believed that big, bold, seemingly irreparable moves like destroying the signature starship of a franchise wasn’t something that would just be undone by the next sequel. James T. Kirk’s initial movie Enterprise may have been the first to crash, but it sure wasn’t the last. There’ll probably never be a last.

It went where no Enterprise had gone before, you might say. And that deserves commemoration.

This exclusive translucent orange Enterprise measures 14 inches long, and is designed to imitate this quick shot in Star Trek III, of the self-destructing Enterprise plummeting through the atmosphere of the Genesis planet:

Since exploding Enterprises are still relatively rare, this Comic-Con collectible will be limited to 400 pieces and cost $65. But once it’s yours, it always shall be your friend. Diamond Select has many more exclusives, including some Bruce Timm-style DC statues, Ghostbusters vinylmates, and variant cover comics featuring Minimates. You can check them all out here.

But it’s the orange Enterprise that has us aglow with excitement, in part because The Search for Spock does not get enough love. I mean, Christopher Lloyd as the Klingon Captain? C’mon! William Shatner’s increasingly overacted repetition of the line, “Klingon…bastard…you’ve…killedmyson!”? Perfection.

Diamond Select exclusives usually aren’t that hard to come by, so odds are that if you want this burning ship, you “KHAAAAAAAAAN” snap it up more easily than some others at their booth. But “Klingon” to it afterward…it’s sure to become a prized possession.
