Popovich? I hope there is a famous scientist or something with this name. I don't see why the coach of the San Antonio Spurs should get a starship.

*NO* Rigel Class, there was never a model made for this one
Challenger Class, probably the 'Niagara':
quote:Description from Okuda: "A scaled-down Galaxy-shaped saucer, and two warp nacelles, one above and the other below the engineering hull". - "The Buran was the above-and-below model that I had thought was the Chekov. I don't recall what Ed's original version of the Buran was, but I added the submarine parts and glued on the engines, although it looks like Ed assembled the engines. I thought it was a clever idea, but it ended up looking like a lollipop. Maybe Ed's version was a single nacelle, and I added the second." [note: O says he doesn't remember if Ed's model was a single-nac'er. I think Ed's Challenger was a two-naceller, O attached the *third* nacelle (the Galaxy one, so the two markerpen-nac's are original]
Excelsior Study 1
Excelsior Study 2
Excelsior Study 3, the four naceller from a few posts back. If you want pics please mention it
Nebula Study 2
Freedom Class, no doubt
Enterprise Study 1, no doubt
Note: Some starship models, including the Mars Defense ships and the Soliton Wave Rider (wich are the same) are built with a Revell Typhoon Class Russian submarine. Mail me for the schematics!

Hey Copernicus. It looks like the screen shot you've got compared to the Excelsior II Study Model is more like the above or below view of the Challenger model you show and that Okuda describes. Mightn't that be the Buran?
Remember how wide Galaxy's ass is. It looks more what it would look like with its nacels moved than it does like any of the Excelsior models, even if you do allow for blurring.

Well, there weren't any in TBoBW or "Emissary". I believe this originated w/ the fact that VOY: "Unity" showed flashback scenes that were supposed to be of Wolf359, and they threw in a couple shots of some BoPs. Though I might be wrong on this...

Well, in the dialogue in BoBw they referred to klingon ships meeting up. So there would have been klingon ships at wolf 359 Unity? - any pics of that flashback scene

Stock footage aye, but there was an original shot of a BoP or two being whacked by a Cube.
Besides, I always took it that the 39 ships lost were Federation vessels, without including Klingon losses.

Maybe the Klingons had their own Wolf 359 battle in the days post-Wolf 359 with Federation help. That could be a probability since we did not see any Federation ships in the footage.

Combining two YATIs into one rationalization:
Perhaps the Klingons intercepted the putative second cube that was carrying assimilees from the Wolf 359 massacre towards Delta quadrant and an eventual stranding on the "Unity planet"?
