Star Trek: Attack Wing Expansion Pack - USS Excelsior

Excelsior has become one of my favorite ships to use in a build. Can become a powerhouse when combined with Spock and Kirk from the enterprise refit. Especially if you have the phaser upgrade from the Hood.

Disappointed because:1. The ship is tiny. It's no longer and wider than my thumb.2. The color is off compared to the posted image (the item is light blue)3. The saucer is an oval like the Enterprise-E instead of circular.4. The detail is over exaggerated compared to the posted picture.5. The paint job is bad.I've played many miniature based start trek games as well as the original Heroclix, and they had superior details compared to this piece.In the end, I've 3D printed a better model with my new resin printer. I minimized my disappointment now by rationalizing the purchase was actually the game material and hunk of plastic just fell in the package.

The USS Excelsior Expansion Pack is an expansion for the Star Trek Attack Wing Miniature Game, which happens to include an impressive model. This is one of the ships that I wanted to get for this game.This miniature is about 2.5" long x 1.5" wide for a 1:7354 scale. When compared to the USS Enterprise (1.5" long, 1:7585) and the USS Enterprise D (3", 1:8438), these seem to be about same scale. In this line of star trek models, there are a few other ships that share a similarity on scale as well.The sculpt and paint on this ship are a mix bag. In one hand, the saucer is a bit larger than wide and the secondary hull is a bit taller towards the back. The paint job is a bit dull, with a light blue application overall. On another hand, the tiny sculpted details and tiny lines on the saucer and secondary hull are really amazing.In addition to the USS Excelsior, this expansion includes a stand and a base for the miniature, one double sided ship token for the base, and one maneuver dial. Of course there are plenty of other tokens as those included for the Star Trek Attack Wing Miniature Game.I got this expansion because of both, the model and the cards, and this expansion deliver some good cards:1 Maneuver Card2 Ships: USS Excelsior and a standard USS Excelsior Class3 Captains: Hikaru Sulu (6), Styles (3) and a beginner Federation captain(1)3 Officers: Janice Rand, Dmitri Valtane and Lojur1 talent cards: Feint1 torpedo cards: Photon Torpedoes2 utility cards: Positron Beam and Transwarp Drive2 cards for one mission: Operation RetrieveThis expansion includes many cards (15), which is about the same amount as in previous Federation expansions.Overall, this is a good model for Federation Fans and hard to pass expansion for Star Trek Attack Wing players.

Arrived in good condition.

Loved it timely delivery
