[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [QB] Since the original post no longer seems to exist, I've made a new one. But it's the same topic, the one you've all been waiting for...yes, it's humongous, it's stupendous, it's....... ****the reply from Robert Legato!!!!!**** Yes, after three months, I finally received a reply from him about the discarded Wolf 359 battle scene from "Emissary," specifically in reference to the Gage. To paraphrase his reply: He seems to remember that the Gage was a reuse of the wrecked version of the Reliant from STII, with some modifications, (i.e. different engines), or a ship based on the Reliant design with different engines (perhaps a sister ship to the Saratoga). Just as when Okuda stated when the DS9 Companion came out that there weren't any new models built, Legato and/or his staff apparently just recycled old models, such as the wrecked Reliant, the Nebula Melbourne, and perhaps the Kyushu (since CaptainMike's photo showed tha the model still existed to be used for VFX test shots of DS9). As for the scene itself, apparently the story behind it was that the original shot was much faster-paced than the later bridge scenes made it out to be (although I thought the version shown was quite fast-paced myself...). Ships must have been flying past the camera at breakneck speed, because TPTB decided that it was too fast and asked Legato to remove the other ships and fast whip pans and the like. That's all he remembers. And frow the way he was talking, I don't think he even had access to the footage himself, so unless someone else does, I don't think we'll be seeing it on DVD. :( [/QB][/QUOTE]
