Last year someone posted a photo they took of what turned out to be a wall applique from the throne room set of the original Stargate film in an alley in Los Angeles. God only knows how it ended up there thirty years after production.
I had to go read all the comments to find out whether they rescued it. Spoiler alert: they did. So cool.
FINALLY......yes .....now I'm happy again ...
Yup. The original Enterprise model after being stolen and lost for near 50 years is back with a roddenberry where it belongs. Rod will said keep it either in sny archives he has of Genes or give it to the Smithsonian for all to enjoy. The judge did the right thing. The guy who found it use pine sol to clean it and damaged it. Glad its out of his hands.
It should have stayed where it was unsullied by such Interlopers.
Totally agree. The pine sol rubbed off some paint and decal work. If it would have been left alone a lot less restoration work would have been needed. I hope they leave as much of the original decal and paint work as they can.

A new video is up with updates on the 33 inch model, including new video and photos, as well as plans for the future of the model in terms of restoration and, ultimately, public display. Take a guess where Rod Roddenberry keeps it secure in his house for the time being, I think you'll be surprised.
I watched this earlier today. The clowns that found it and initially refused to give it back to Rod have gotten nothing. No money at all. If they would have been honest and returned it to Rod he would have rewarded them.
Instead they refused and demanded money. Now all they have is legal bills for the case they lost. Sometimes justice is sweet. Lol
Really, they shouldn't have been dumpster diving for money at all. Then this could have continued to be the one that got away. From everybody.
Yes. Luckily its back where it belongs. Its nice to know that the model used in The Cage is still with us and is safe and sound. Shes the first one. I hope the restoration keeps as much of the original decals that are on there as they can.
