A very long time ago when I first saw "Yesterday's Enterprise" from Star Trek The Next Generation and I saw the
Enterprise-C, I knew I had to get it! A week after seeing that episode I called all the hobby stores here in Las Vegas seeing if they had one and they didn't. I was disappointed.
But a few years later Ertl finally came out with it, and I got mine for free, because I was sending off a replacement kit for the 1701-A from a long time ago (which was accidently destroyed), and Ertl said they were sending me the Enterprise-C of course I had to confirm this and it was true. But I had to send a replacement kit for this because it had some flaws in it. The warp nacell pylons had some areas missing almost like the mold didn't fully get completed. But after I got the new one I instantly started building it. I used a medium acrylic blue for the dark color, and blue angel blue mixed with white for the lighter color. I was very pleased the way how this turned out. I have the U.S.S. Yamaguchi lighted model (named the Excalibur) that I need to do, and once I get that done I will submit it to Cult. But here are a few views of my glorius U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-C model.
