Set blueprint exchange

Lots of great additions, thanks for all the work you put into this!
One small suggestion I'd have is to move the three 'ds9 vegas' images from Alien Worlds to the new Experience shuttle folder, as that's the set for the scene with Riker and Geordi shown in the newly added storyboards.
Speaking of The Experience, this site has 12 panoramas of different areas of the place, including inside the rides. I wonder if its possible to save them and add them to the archive alongside the existing panos, I fear that site going offline and these being lost forever.

The 3/4 angle image of the deflector is a Probert drawing. I can tell at a glance because his linework and lettering is distinct from Sternbach's, and you can see his signature on the drawing on one of the other photos (as here).
And the layout is not a known configuration as far as I can tell. It starts similar to AZERTY, but then it really goes off the rails.
Might it be worth just reaching out and asking if they could provide a copy for the sake of preserving that bit of history?
Love the refit

The "shuttle pod landing bay miniature" is already archived, it's part of the aft addon for the Bozeman/Soyuz.
I remember when that aft Bozeman piece went up for auction. IIRC, the auctioneers didn't know what it was and labeled it some generic "starship filming miniature part" or something. I didn't find out about it until the auction was done and it sold for only about $500 or $600. I so would have gone for it if I had known it was there, as I knew exactly what it was - I had just recently built up an AMT Reliant with a vacuform Bozeman mod kit and the thing was still relatively fresh in my mind. Probably couldn't touch it for under 5 figures anymore, now that everyone knows what it is. 
In situations like that, I try to tell myself that the winning bidder did know what it was and would have outbid me no matter what I was prepared to spend.
Probably true.

Why on earth does it say "talk trek" on it? Isn't that a podcast??
I always wondered that myself. A curious Easter egg.
Below the "Talk Trek" there's a phone number, so its an easter egg by whoever detailed the model years before the podcast existed.
There's gonna be another Prop Store auction in September, with the catalogue releasing next week.
The preview has at least one Trek item, the Ressikan Flute from the Inner Light!

Currently archiving the Propstore auction stuff, but there is an oddity:

It claims to be one of the TMP warp core rings, except its only 15 inches across - way too small even for the perspective versions.
The TMP warp core discs were 5'6" around the vertical shaft, and the perspective scaled horizontal shaft varied from 3'6 to 1'10".
Also the discs were not completely round unlike the propstore item.
Its quite likely that each TMP vertical shaft disc was converted from 4 Phase II core fins.
I wrote a quick little explanation and comparison thread on my bluesky

If this is the case, then from the Phase II core blueprint, we have dimensions for Phase II, TMP and TNG core parts.

Were the intermix chambers going up diagonally into the warp pylons matte paintings or practical? If they were real, it could be one of those.

Is it possible that this smaller ring was used as a spacer between the warp core rings?
