    I liked these uniforms since I first saw pictures of them.

    I don't really remember the planetside uniforms that were referred to. I remember the cadet uniforms though. Does anyone have pictures of all the uniforms for this thread? What's a thread without some optical candy?

    I did see an extra wearing a long sleeved blue dress, so I hope that the long sleeved ones had a place for insignia on them.

    I'm not sure I remember one, to be honest, and almost certainly not among the officially-released images we've seen. This one of Spock seems to show the same uniform cut as the one Pike wears, but only from the waist up.

    The collar seems to be cut slightly differently on him--but I'd say it's definitely a variation on the same uniform.

    Has this uniform, perhaps, been seen on display anywhere? Set photos, maybe?

    Could reflect the difference in either rank/stature (Academy instructor vs. Chief of Starfleet Recruiting) or a departmental division, maybe.

    Again, I don't recall having seen anything outside the movie which showed the complete uniform in one shot (unless perhaps some pre-production costume-design sketches -- datas cat spot might remember if there were something like this), but things were going by pretty fast and furious for a while and I could have missed something.

    Looking at the miniskirt uniforms, the rank problem could easily be solved by slapping some TMP-style rank tabs on the shoulders.

    Or they could just wear these nifty hats:

    Life would be so much easier if I could just hotlink instead of rehosting everything :)

    I thought that the uniforms worked well. And I loved the fact that they had little tiny insignias all over them..

    Yeah, the insignias stitched in was a great way to keep the overall look, but make them more detailed and intricate. I got the costume cards for the trading card set and they look really cool up close.

    I didn't even notice it the first time until someone here pointed it out. Totally awesome. :bolian::rommie:

    You mean you missed the epic "deltas! in the fabric!" arguments which went down here after the first poster sets came out last summer? :p

    If you click on these to enlarge, they're pretty easy to make out, in spots.

    Yep. I didn't let myself go in this forum until the afternoon of May 10th, the first time I saw the movie. I didn't want to get spoiled, period.

    I got upset when one of the news items here mentioned the Spock/ Uhura romance and spoiled it for me. :mad:

    Or the appropriate number of rank stripes as circles around the breasts. :techman:

    ^ Oh, dear... :lol:

    We tried to be careful about that, but sometimes shit will happen.

    Around? Now that's a good idea... And the bigger the breasts, the higher she can go up in rank, since more rank stripes will fit. :devil:

    Sorry Cup-AA ladies; you'll have to stay an ensign for the rest of your lives! :D

    In that case, Gaila could be Grand Admiral of the entire damn Starfleet. :drool:

    Some of us hope Gaila was on the Enterprise; they never said in the movie where she was assigned.

    Do the Deltas appear in the Cheeze-Its uniform versions? :lol:

    Yes, I missed that discussion, too; I eschewed the forum until after I'd seen the movie. And as soon as the sequel details begin appearing, I'll be bowing out again.
