U.S.S. Tolstoy from "Best of Both Worlds, Pt. II!"

After almost 30 years, we've finally uncovered the last kitbashed model used in "Best of Both Worlds' Pt. II!" Click the imagebam link for more pics. Hopefully Eaglemoss will get on this soon!

How incredibly different!

 

Great that it's been found and the mystery solved.

That said, it looks stupid AF.

 

Not so far in the foreground to see the hotel-size escape pods on screen post-processed, but it's nice to see these filmed model bits still around after all this time!

01 April alert?

 

That is one fugly kitbashed ship.

To get to the underside saucer section, you'd have to travel in a turbolift through the nacelle?

This is worse than figuring out how to get to the drive section of an Oberth class.

And before any says it, yes I suppose they could use the transporters to beam from one section to the other. Seems stupid. Like this ship design.

 

I looked it up...

50/50 chance or not, I'll react anyway:

 

Seems like it would be some sort of cargo ship or carrier of shuttles/fighters.

 

Looks like a clam with a an erection.

 

Maaaaaybe!

 

I call it an April Fool's.

Look at the numbers 0 and 5 in the registry. It looks photoshopped on the blackened hull. If it was the original numbers on the hull, the way the blackened marks hit would obscure at least a slight bit on the registry.

Plus... there is no way a ship would be kitbashed this badly. The nacelle directly between the two hulls with no access other than THROUGH the warp nacelle?

"In a pig's eye."

 

April Fool?

It's a cool model, nonetheless.

 

By the way, it only works as an April Fools' joke, if the person pulling the prank admits it's April Fools'. We're well into April 2....
