Following the launch of their multi-thousand-dollar USS Shenzhou and USS Discovery “studio scale” models earlier this year, ANOVOS has for the first time showcased their take on the Discovery-era USS Enterprise starship model at San Diego Comic Con.
Appearing on display at their SDCC booth (#3849) today, the fully-lit, large-scale electronic model of the revised Constitution-class starship topped the trio of vessels on the convention floor — and is set to retail at $9,000 when available.
Here’s some official images of the model, from ANOVOS’ website:
Like the Shenzou and Discovery before it, the Enterprise model will be “hand-crafted to order” for those fans willing to spend $9,000 on this new ship, which measures 35″ long.
The full technical breakdown:
– Measures 35″ long x 16″ wide x 8″ tall.
– Body composed of polymer resin, with steel reinforcement.
– Replicated directly from the screen-used digital assets from production.
– Over 180 LED lights, runs off a 12V power source, with single channel remote.
– Active illumination for Impulse Engines, Warp Nacelles, Formation, and Anti-Collision lights.
– Our system uses a series of Neodymium magnets in both the pylons and nacelles to secure the nacelles. All electronics are handled with pin connections. This allows the nacelles to removed and attached at will.Detail areas:
– Removable covers to bussard collectors, exposing engineering elements.
– Extendable deflector dish to reveal illuminated deflector coil.
– Automotive-grade paints applied, using a multi-layer process to achieve Aztec panel effect.
– Custom-cut Discovery-style Starfleet non-split delta display stand, composed of machined aircraft – aluminum and steel, with a total display height of 14”.
– Includes separate display plaque featuring starship’s name and registry.
– Packaged in wooden prop box lined with convoluted foam

This is the first physical model of the new Enterprise seen in public, and will certainly give the starship afficianados among you something new to discuss as we approach the Star Trek: Discovery panel this Friday afternoon.
