Diamond Select Enterprise NCC-1701-D

Either I finally learned how to engage my Dreadnought's ventral thrusters or I bought a stand from Displaystandsdirect! This invisible stand works like a special effect and my model really appears to be hovering! The engraving is beautiful and the stand is fantastic quality, I couldn't be happier.

I'm so glad I came across Display Stands Direct. I was collecting the Diamond Select Starships a few years ago and had to pack some away because I found the display stands that were made for them very sub par. They broke easily and sometimes couldn't support the weight of the very item they were meant to display. DSD ups the ante and makes these models stand out and really look like something more than they are. They'll make anybody's Ready Room a class act!

Like many others have already commented, the plastic stands that come with Diamond Select's STAR TREK ships are horrible. Flimsy, easily breakable...they are an absolute crap-shoot to use. While searching the internet for alternate ways to display my Enterprise D and E, I came across these stands. Let me just say that I've only had these stands for three days, so I can't comment on their long-term durability, but these feel exceptionally well-made. They lend a level of classiness that serves to elevate these beyond looking like just plastic toys (yes, they're incredibly detailed and adult collector-oriented, but they're still toys). The engravings are very well-done although a tad cramped. The display pieces that attach to the base fit very snug and secure. The downside there is that they can require a bit of extra force to piece together, and I was afraid of breaking them. Alas, nope. Everything fit together beautifully. What really amazes me the most is the way that these stands utilize a bare minimum of support (e.g. the small hooks barely slide over the back of the Enterprise D) but they are perfectly balanced and are not going anywhere (unless bumped). Kudos to the design team for 100% nailing the ship's center of gravity! When the Enterprise A re-releases later this summer, I'll be ordering the corresponding stand from here on the same day!

The display stand I ordered from DisplayStandsDirect.com is a quality piece of work and displays my model very nicely.

This is the 7th display stand I have purchased and they are all amazing, the quality is great and i love the etching.

I broke the standard stand for my Diamond Select Enterprise D a long while ago, and it was languishing in dust. However, thanks to a post in "Eaglemoss Star Trek Fan Group" on Facebook, I discovered TS Hobbies, and purchase their stand for this starship. And it totally enhances it into a conversation piece. Good job!

I adore DST's Enterprise-D, but I didn't display it, because the stands it came with are so horrible. Not only do they look bad, but I was genuinely afraid they would drop the ship off the shelf. TS Hobbies' stand is a thing of beauty. It cradles the ship on the Stardrive section, gently grabbing it from the back via two clever notches, to keep it from falling forward. It looks amazing and even seems to defy gravity as there is nothing needed to support the heavy saucer section. You can quickly and easily remove and replace the ship from the stand, operate the electronics, and even separate the saucer. The stand itself is high quality and looks fantastic. It comes with protective clings and all the pieces were absolutely immaculate when they arrived. I already own their stands for the Classic Phaser and the Star Trek III Phaser and I will be buying the one for the Klingon Disruptor as well as the Excelsior. Fantastic products!

I've been watching this stand for a while now and after a year and a half of ownership, my original Diamond Select stand (the larger one) finally broke. I've been waiting for a good reason to get a new display stand and I was using the 2 stand method since the single stand method that they have shown on the box isn't too stable. The second stand is included primarily if you choose to display the saucer section separated from the star drive section. The TS Hobbies stand is a thing of beauty and I can't say anything more positive than what has already been said here. Simple design, beautiful, professional looking. Shipping was quick and I am slowly going to replace my other starship stands with these. I highly recommend this stand and I am future customer now.

I bought both the TNG and the "All Good Things" stands for my Diamond Select Enterprise D's. They are FANTASTIC. They really class up the ships. The original stands was very loose and they were very difficult to keep the ship level. My original "All Good Things" stand became so loose that the ship fell and the stand broke. These Acrylic are amazing! Not only do they look great, they hold the ships perfectly and I have no fear of them falling off the shelf. I highly recommend these, they are well worth it.
