Playmobil’s Star Trek U.S.S. Enterprise Takes Retail Toys to a New Level

https://ift.tt/3jKhzDe

The word “iconic” gets thrown around with unjustified ease these days, but Star Trek’s original U.S.S. Enterprise clearly lives up to that contemporary cliché, standing as one of the most revered sci-fi spaceships not just in the history of the genre, but global popular culture. Thusly, the ship’s marketability remains evergreen over half a century after its introduction, as evidenced by the reveal of Playmobil’s ambitious upcoming toy release, which spans over 3 ft. long, featuring loads of impressive features. So, if you happen to have $500 burning a hole in your proverbial pocket, then we have good news for you!

The commonly offered refrain that toys are primarily designed for children first and collectors a distant second was just blasted with a photon torpedo courtesy of German toymakers Playmobil, which has unveiled its Star Trek U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701—or, as Scotty once specified, “no bloody A, B, C or D.” The item celebrates the 55th anniversary of the bellwether television series and the multimedia franchise it subsequently spawned. Playmobil, known for stylized miniature-scaled replicas with sounds and lights, has designs to impress with this release. The upcoming 136-piece set, which measures 42 inches long x 18 inches wide, features an assortment of working lights and sounds, includes miniatures of the entire bridge crew, and can even be controlled by your smart phone. However, with the Enterprise, the company will boldly go where no retail-level toy has gone before—with a $499.99 price tag! Indeed, despite the cutesy design of the miniatures if Kirk, Spock and the gang, this one is hardly a kid’s toy.

Playmobil has been quietly coveting some of the most popular properties in film and television. Indeed, a stroll through a toy aisle at, for example, your local Walmart, in past few years would reveal impressive renditions like Back to the Future’s DeLorean and Ghostbusters’ Ecto-1, complemented by an array of original, kid-friendly aspirational sets. However, with the Star Trek IP now in tow, the company has outdone itself with the U.S.S. Enterprise, potentially setting a new, high-level template for the release of more gigantic ships.

Yet, what makes this reveal rather interesting is the fact that the set will arrive as a proper retail release, which makes it a modern anomaly for something of its enormous scale and lofty price range. Intriguingly, it’s also a throwback of sorts to the glory days of giant vehicles and playsets. Indeed, G.I. Joe fans of a certain generation know the feeling of admiring financially-unattainable playsets, as famously exemplified by Hasbro’s release of the U.S.S. Flagg aircraft carrier, a 7.5-foot-long magnificent monstrosity that retailed in 1985 for $89.99 (or $227.23 in today’s dollars). For most kids, it was only experienced via the enormous shelf space on which its gigantic box rested at your local Toys “R” Us, or via the lucky kid on the block who managed to finagle one. Naturally, some of those now-adults have chosen to use their earned disposable income to avenge those unforgettable instances of childhood deprivation. Thus, we find ourselves in an age in which a $500 toy—mind you, not a bespoke replica or high-end collectible—isn’t entirely unheard of in the market.

Of course, the days of big boxes hogging the shelves of retail stores are long gone, notably for a typical carrier of them, Toys “R” Us, which recently went out of business, now only existing as a store branding outside of the States. However, the crowdfunding phenomenon has kept the floundering concept alive, allowing the otherwise-unfeasible production of collectible dream projects that would otherwise have no chance of finding precious shelf real estate at your local Walmarts or Targets. Hasbro’s HasLab crowdfunding endeavor has been the dominant driving force behind this, notably for Star Wars, with room-dominating releases that accommodate the traditional 3 ¾” action figures such as 2019’s Jabba’s Sail Barge (The Khetanna) and 2020’s yet-to-be-released rendition of The Mandalorian’s Razor Crest—which, conspicuously enough, would be destroyed on the show shortly after the $350 item was fully backed by collectors.

Additionally, Hasbro recently reached its mark for the 6” scale Marvel Legends line to go into production of an astounding 26.3 inch tall X-Men Legends Sentinel figure for an initial $350; a price that, upon closing of the crowdfunding, was raised to an average of $550 by secondary sellers offering pre-orders for those who missed the boat. Moreover, a monstrous, world-devouring 32-inch tall Marvel Legends Galactus is currently closing in on its targeted goal of 14,000 backers, each of whom will pay $399.99! Additionally, the recently revived Masters of the Universe IP recently got in on the crowdfunding action with former licensee Super7’s Snake Mountain playset, an awe-inspiring re-imagined rendition of Mattel’s classic playset for Skeletor’s dreaded domain, this one up-scaled for the now-defunct 7” scale Masters of the Universe Classics line. That set required an investment of $600, which didn’t even include shipping!

Now, without the solicitation of cash-carrying crowd-funders, Playmobil has fired a phaser shot across the bow of the big-box toy market with its U.S.S. Enterprise. Yet, it will be interesting to see just how many (if any) of these monster boxes (revealed as 26.77 x 19.69 x 8.86 inches) will manage to show up at brick-and-mortar retailers. While most of the would-be buyers will order it from major online retailers such as Amazon, Entertainment Earth and Big Bad Toy Store, the project has come to life with the advantage of a large, retail-level production, though without the financial safety net that a typically crowd-funded project of its price point would enjoy. Yet, for true Trekkies, this Enterprise might be a must-get item; one that could facilitate every display your heart desires, be it hanging on the ceiling or resting majestically on its included stand. Space will indeed be the final frontier as you attempt to find somewhere to put this sublime manifestation of the inimitable Constitution class vessel.

Fortuitously enough, Star Trek might just have some incoming news from Creation’s annual mega-convention in Las Vegas, which will be held from Aug. 11-15. Indeed, the event—set this year as a celebration of the big 55-year anniversary—has been known to generate headlines, notably in 2018, when Patrick Stewart walked on stage to make an impromptu announcement that he was returning for the series that would come to be known as (the imminently returning) Star Trek: Picard. Consequently, new trailers and announcements could be on the immediate horizon.

Los 3 proyectos de impresoras 3d de crowdfunding

Las plataformas como Kickstarter siguen siendo el mejor lugar para obtener enormes reducciones de costos en las primeras impresoras 3D y equipo de impresión en 3D.

Easily Build’s New Nine es una impresora FDM de bajo costo que promete las mejores características de impresoras mucho más caras e ingeniería de innovaciones de diseño de bajo costo. Supuestamente 3 veces más rápido que las impresoras en su rango de precio, New Nine Equipado con características útiles como un amortiguador de masa pendiente de patente para reducir la agitación y mantener la precisión durante la impresión.

La impresora dispone de un lecho de impresión calentado, una boquilla de alta temperatura y un eje X contrabalanceado, entre otro bits y bobinas.

La empresa, fundada por Rory Korathu-Larson, está compuesta por ingenieros, educadores y geeks creativos que están comprometido a entregar una nueva plataforma de desarrollo de código abierto para la comunidad de impresión 3D.

El D2K Insight de Mayc Creation se describe como una impresora 3D basada en LCD personal de alto rendimiento y una manera asequible de producir objetos 3D de alta calidad. La compañía con sede en Hong Kong ya ha puesto algunas que otras impresoras, incluyendo el D2K Iluminar, aunque como muchos tipos de productos, nadie está muy seguro de quién está haciendo el D2Ks. El enlace de LinkedIn de Mayc desde su web oficial te lleva a la página de una empresa de diseño web aparentemente no relacionada.

Si está dispuesto a asumir un riesgo en un D2K, los beneficios son supuestamente bastante grandes. La máquina ofrece características como un estabilizador de eje Z y la exactitud de garantizar engranaje hueco de separación de huecos. La impresora ofrece un nivel de cama super rápido, mientras que un dispositivo de pantalla táctil LCD de 5 pulgadas independiente hace que el control de la impresora sea sencillo. La impresora también puede ser controlada por el teléfono inteligente o navegador web.

Muchas personas han señalado que las impresoras 3D son muy adecuadas para hacer juguetes, incluso en casa. Las impresoras 3D como el XYZPrinting Da Vinci Jr e incluso el MakerBot Replicator Mini apuntan al merado de los niños, mientras que Mattel tuvo que posponer el lanzamiento de su amable impresora ThingMaker 3D.

La Toybox ya cuenta con un creciente catálogo de más de 500 juguetes disponibles para la impresión inmediata, y es la primera impresora 3D fácil de usar para que los niños diseñen e impriman sus propios juguetes.

Toybox tiene unas especificaciones técnicas, y la tinta especial de la impresora no es tóxica y biodegradable. El volumen de construcción pequeño es adecuado para el propósito de la impresora.
