The second ship from this month's Eaglemoss release of Standard Edition models, is a ship simply known as the Merchantman, a vessel that meets a quick demise in the movie, "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984)"

When it comes to colors, this model/ship is the exact polar opposite of the Promellian Battle Cruiser.

It is a new month, which brings us two more Standard Edition models from Eaglemoss.  First up for review is the Promellian Battle Cruiser, called Cleponji.  We are introduced to this ship in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode called "Booby Trap".

I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with this model from the initial promotional pictures.

With the Standard Edition Collection getting close to the end with only about 20 or more models to go, it seems like Eaglemoss has been working overtime to get their Special Edition models out to us a bit quicker.  It feels like I was just reviewing Spacedock a month ago.  Well, it was more like 2 months, but they are still producing them faster than before. Which brings us to the next in line of the Special Edition models, V'ger.  We get to meet this "living" vessel in the very first movie, "Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979)".

The Eaglemoss model is a one of a kind.  I don't know of any other manufacturers that have produced this ship in a pre-built and pre-painted model at this scale.  And I have to tell you, the model is pretty darned long, measuring in at just shy of 9 inches.

The second model for this month's Eaglemoss vs. The World series is a ship we finally get to see in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode called "Unification - Part 2".  I am talking about the Vulcan made Apollo Class starship.

While this type of ship is mentioned several times throughout TNG, it isn't until this critical episode that one actually makes its appearance on screen.
