Star Trek Micro Machines

posted on July 21st, 2010, 4:23 pm

I don't know if this has been discussed here before, but I was curious if anyone collected or collects the Star Trek themed Micro Machines that were produced in the early to mid 90's. IMO, there were the best starship themed toys ever as the blended insane detail with high quality. Anyone else passionate about these wonderful little buggers?

Hehe indeed, I remember when I was a kid I was absolutely OBSESSED with those. I remember searching far and wide for the pack that came with the Enterprise-A (which was oddly a much darker hue of blue then in the movies...). I also remember finding that box that came with the U.S.S. Pasteur and Neg'var. Good old nostalgic days those were...

I had a bunch of the standard-3packs. But finding any pack with any of the Enterprises was really difficult here, because in my hometown shopping is and always was... limited. I was glad to find the Enterprise-C + Borg Cube + Ferengi Marauder pack one day. And my USS Excelsior "lost" it's warp nacelles while being buried undermy schoolbooks.

On ebay the prices are far more reasonable. A serious collector could clean up with little cost if he/she is vigilant.

Lucky, I always wanted that one because it had the elusive Defiant.

I loved those things but lost mine.

One of these days I'll go out and get a collection started again.

dont think I had a B'Rel with moving wings I got 4 of the fixed wing ones I took model paint and painted  the "radiators" black on 2 red on the other 2  I also have the Stargazer which came Yellow I painted it gray

The Pasteur is very fragile.  mine the "globe" broke in half just from a 3 foot fall The Nebula comes apart easly as well. The Excelsior's are very blue I've got at least 3 one I took fingernail clippers and a lighter to it to battle damage it. ahh good old days...

I totally did that too, except mine was the Enterprise-B, and instead of burning it I used a type of model weathering powder.

  I have 3 B'rels.

One is a TNG B'rel and is a lame bright green with red highlights.  The other was the B'rel from Generations and is the exact same model but with a MUCH better paintjob.  The third is the captured BoP from the TMP era.  That's the one that moves.
  Imma find some pictures .

EDIT:

  Had this great big pack




TOTALLY had this one:D.  Separable Ent-D, Ent-B and the B'rel

I think I had the big pack too, but I had forgotten about all that!   Didn't the Enterprise D separate, with a small peg and hole where the battle bridge is supposed to be?

Since that box says 'Saucer Module Detaches', I'd assume the Saucer module detaches.

It was more of a nostalgic question.
