Enterprise. I also have the pocket sized Enterprise and Klingon diecasts released when "Star Trek The Motion Picture" came out ( unfortunately, not the ultra rare 'missile firing' versions which only saw limited release in the U.K. ). The Gerry Anderson stuff is pretty faithfully reproduced, indicating the close working relationship Gerry Anderson and Dinky had, with minimal 'toyetic' modifications made for the obligatory action features. The Star Trek toys are…well…somewhat less faithful recreations ( although the Klingon ship is closer in it's proportions to it's onscreen counterpart than the Enterprise ). I still treasure these well crafted toys – some of which can be picked up, in excellent shape, for fairly decent prices secondhand. Strangely, the most expensive one for me to re-acquire was the least impressive looking; The big U.S.S. Enterprise!
