    Interesting that they paired Picard with Locutus. Guess Janeway had dibs on the Borg Queen. Any other good options for Picard?

    I am surprised to see the main Xindi Reptilian on Archer's stamp. Though I guess there is a certain logic to it. Over the course of the Arc he appeared in more episodes than any other villian in th series.

    Just noticed purely by accident (looking for something else entirely) that the new Galileo stamp is based on Doug Drexler's image of the shuttlecraft from the 2010 Ships of the Line Calendar.

    If not Q, I think I would have gone with Tomalak. He was a great villain who made several memorable appearances.
