Having read a Post on the Master Replicas forum, It appears that all Star Trek Props will be delayed until the new year to allow MR to get all star wars products out before the end of the License.

This seems to be the problem with this company, they devote all their attention to one product while ignoring the rest of their fan base. Yes Star wars is a cash cow for them, but it seem to me if they chose to promote one product over another that they are ticking off potential customers and shooting themselves in the foot at the same as these customers will get tired of being ignored or but on the backburner.

For one think, one of the reasons I bought the CS membership was for the star trek products that would be coming out this year. Now essentially I will have to buy another CS membership to get the discounts on the star trek products. Perhaps if they stopped putting all their eggs in one basket, they would make more money and not annoy the very fanbase they are trying to keep and rely on for their very existence. :2cents

Not surprising that they are doing this.  Maybe try and write them a nice email.  Amy their CS rep is very good at keeping the customers happy.  See if they will extend your membership.  I wish some new Trek stuff was coming sooner, but I can wait since I'm buying some of this final SW wave stuff.

This does not surprise me as well, as they have had such a huge Star Wars focus the past few months. All the other lines they have they hardly even look at. I guess they need something to sell come January 1st, so I am not surpised they have delayed these items. With Star Wars gone, I hope they give some good attention to Star Trek, I notice they have started to sell some of the Corgi Star Trek ships, so hopefully there attention to Star Trek will be better then just  that. That all said, I am buying some of their final Star Wars products, so at least it helps out my wallet this year.
