Captain Pike's Pants: Will They Be Kelvin Version Or TOS Version?

I prefer Prime Universe myself.

 

TOS

 

Those aren't "canon"... they have 'BUTTONS'!!!

 

They had to be 25% different for creative reasons.

 

It's a retcon. Visuals aren't canon, after all.

 

“The Treachery of Canon”

 

That engineering hull is all wrong.

I don’t remember it being so curvy on the bottom

 

I can’t tell if this is meant to be ironic or not. Either way, take it up with the artist, Walter M. Jefferies.

 

I know it’s his art, but I don’t think the actual physical model matched that, it was straighter.

 

And why would their underwear say "Star Trek"? Is that a reference to something Zefram Cochrane once said?

 

You're right, the model is definitely straighter. This version was in the Technical Manual though for some reason.

 

The phase 2 and refit hull sort of did it

The DSC hull also has a curve, but not like that

 

Your underwear doesn't include quotes from noted historical figures?

 

My phaser did…when I was six:

Which, I’m sure will surprise no one, irritated me at age six because why would a phaser have the name of a show branded on the side?

 

Yeah, I'd have been annoyed with that as a kid too. They'd at least learned by the TNG stuff. Only the tiny imprinted writing that you'd need to be looking for on the bottom was there.
