Does anybody else think that galoob should bring back the Star trek micromachines. I think it would be so cool to have a Micro machine Akira or Steamrunner class starship.

I heard they are. It was from a source I wouldn't put a wager on, though. Yes, it would kick ass. I even came up with a list of ships they need to do.

I think I still have some of mine. I have like 3 BoP's though cause in order to get 1 ship I want, I have to get another I already have. I also never saw the Defiant or Voyager micro-machines.

New Micro Machines Trek ships would be pretty nifty.

I still have all of mine.

I blew my allowance on a 30 ship set that KayBee Toys was selling. I got every model of the Enterprise except for the C. And at the time, no one had even dared imagined an E that soon.

Although I was quite distressed by the Type 6 shuttle being named "Berman."

I've got both the Defiant and Voyager Micro Machines. The Voyager one actually has movable nacelles.

I almost got the Ent-E Captain's Yacht. Yes that one exists as micro machine, I saw it myself.

BTW: I saw newer Star Wars micro machines last week. They actually have a Sentinal class landing craft Micro Machine. You know, the 'big brother' of the Imperial shuttle. The thing was hardly noticable in the SW4 special edition movie.

Galoob stopped making Star Trek MM's back in 97 i think, or was it 96, they also discontinued their B5 line so they could focus on the Star Wars line which was pretty much sucked dry (they even had a Lars Family speeder) The Star Wars line is continuing at the moment with the new Ep. 1 sets (so that sentinal one isn't all that new). Chances are they won't start ST up again as it would require a liscence from paramount, Plus galoob no longer exists as a seperate company, its owned by Hasbro.


also, i'm not sure there is a E-Wing Action Fleet out there, i know some one had once made a custom design of one (as well as a custom Assault Gunboat).

There is an E-Wing Action Fleet. I own it. It's pretty hard to get, as I understand it, I see it on eBay for upwards of $100, but I found it in TRU the day after I saw "Insurrection" in theatres, and I picked it up. It's a pretty cool looking fighter, and I even canabalized a Lego X-Wing into one.

Yes, the E-Wing Action Fleet does indeed exist.

I've still got all of my Trek micro machines. In fact, I ordered a few more from some people online this past week because I recently came across all of mine and decided the fleet needed to expand. I too would like to see a new license and the new ships made.

What the heck is a micro machine, BTW? They don't seem to have crossed the generational gap.

Well that's how silly they are - they could make mega-bucks by releasing a smallish run of mm's in the Star Trek range. They could even release different sets - an "Enterprise" box would be good.

A Klingon box with a Negh'Var would be good...

Not to mention all the ships from later DS9 eps...

New Dominion ships, new Cardassian, Fed, Romulan and Breen ships.

Did they ever to the Ferengi pod?
