Missing 32" Enterprise finally found...

I understand that there are differences (not as well as some do) but I'm not sure they are significantly different enough to warrant a separate kit. Especially since there are bound to be inaccuracies which would take it FURTHER from the 3 foot model AND the 11 foot model.

Did anyone ever say that they wished that there was a super accurate kit of the 4 foot Galaxy class?

MHO of course.

I suppose the argument in favor is that you could actually make a 1:1 kit of the model.

 

Complete with Pine-Sol if you want it authentically damaged?

 

Yup he took pine-sol to it and rubbed paint and decal work off most likely. Geez why not just throw acid on it. Smh

 

Lol. Oh man the model company would sell a ton of the pine-sol edition models.

 

The main difference with the 33 incher is the differing contours of the primary saucer. As such perhaps an alternate saucer could be offered for Polar Lights’ small TOS E kit. This is actually something that could be offered by some third party.

 

Since they are taking scans of the model. I have a feeling we will indeed eventually get a kit and maybe even a toy based on the model. I would buy it without hesitation....lol

 

These guys who found it stripped paint and decals with that darn pine-sol. Geez they couldn't use a soap and water spray and just blot with a clean rag? They had to pour pine-sol and scrub it on a 60 year old model. Darn it.

 

Is there any indication that it was these guys that tried to clean it up?

 

Nobody knows nothin'.

 

Who else?? It looked recently cleaned up. If it were years ago those smudges would not look so white. Also that bottle of pine-sol on the floor in the eBay pic is a major clue. Lol These guys were not Trek fans, had zero clue what they had. The problem with pine-sol is that you cannot leave it on wood to long.

Anyhow it looked like a bad haphazard attempt that didn't work out well for them so they stopped and then stuck it up on eBay smudges and all.

All theory of course. Lol But I would bet it's pretty close to what happened.

 

Wanna bet some future episode/book/comic will include a sly in-universe nod to this whole debacle?

 

Yeah the big bottle of pine-sol next to the model when they took the picture for the posted sale. Lol

 

How'd you get access to Terry Matalas' story pitch archive?

 

Shaw’s version was had lengthened nacelles and such.

 

Lower Decks seems a likely suspect.

 

I think Season Five is now in post-production, but it's an ideal candidate for Season Six.

Oh, wait....
