Mar 08 | Star Trek Online developer, Cryptic Studios, has introduced the STO Trident Starship Class here. Now read more about this impressive ship below: Equipped with the resources and technology needed to chart distant star systems, the Trident and its sister ships are ideal for exploration missions that will take a ship far from starbases. The Trident has additional room for engineering facilities that other science vessels do not, allowing it to make its own repairs or act as a support vessel for a fleet. Ok, now find out more about the STO Trident Class and watch a video

Action-figure.com posted several photos from the San Diego Comic Con 2008 and there are some pics of Mattel's 2009 Star Trek line of toys, including photos of which appears to be the new U.S.S. Enterprise model.
Is this the new Constitution Class Enterprise from J.J. Abrams movie ? The design looks like a mix of the Original Series Enterprise and the TOS movie Enterprise. Again, time will tell.
This information is preliminary, of course, and entirely rumor.
You can see larger photos of the model here
UPDATE : TrekMovie.com confirmed that neither of the ships being displayed at Comic Con were based on a design from the new Star Trek movie. John Ludwig, Mattel's Tyco Product manager, tells TrekMovie that they will be making a R/C Enterprise from the new movie, but that will not be out until shortly before the movie. The full report can be found here.

Am I the only one slightly disturbed by the very strong implication that there WILL be a major redesign for the movie?
To anyone who has seen the teaser trailer, this should not be a surprise at all. All we have seen of the "revamped" Enterprise is below:
Based on the textured pattern on the saucer (known as 'aztecing'), the bridge module, hull lettering and the sensor underneath? We can deduce that the saucer of the ship is now more close in look to the refit, than what was seen in TOS. Likely, to make the refit that occured prior to The Motion Picture more believable.
The spinning Bussard ramscoops at the front of the nacelles are functionally TOS, but seem to blend into the nacelle more cleanly, with less ornament surrounding them. The dorsal "radiator fins" at the rear of each warp nacelle are definately more organic and "fluid" than the ones we saw in TOS, so the nacelles have been updated.
All we really need to see now is the secondary hull. Has the fantail and hangar door changed? Is the deflector dish of the metallic "satellite TV" TOS variety, or more of the glowing headlight effect seen in the films.. or a hybrid of both? I feel the reveal of the revamped Enterprise is the next biggest event forthcoming.

Comic Con 2008 Reveals New U.S.S. Enterprise Design?
Note that these "new designs" have airscrews (propellers) embedded in their saucer section, and one has a dorsal fin (see photo enlargement below).
Now that is kitsch, JJ! ;-)
These models aren't replicas, they're semblance toys for play in the yard.
