[QUOTE]Originally posted by kmart: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by MrNeutron: [qb] Regarding the "skins" of the Phase 2 bridge, I'll try to remember to ask Andy Probert about that. Since he did a lot of conceptual drawings of the battle bridge for "Encounter at Farpoint", I suspect he'll know what elements were actually used and/or were available. It should be posible to tell if at least some wall segments were TMP bridge or extra Phase II skins, because the walls of the full set were modified a lot for TMP (extra holes cut in for screens, trim added, etc.). Also, extra skins would have to be wired and rigged with with lights and screens, and any budget conscious producer's gonna go with the already rigged stuff if at all possible. [/qb][/QUOTE]UPDATE on the fate of the TOS movie bridge! Went throught the audio and text commentary for TREK V last night and about halfway through, Okuda mentions that at some point after TREK IV wrapped and before TREK V started, the TOS movie bridge (apparently still largely intact)was stored OUTSIDE and the tarp blew off, exposing it to the elements and ruining it completely, necessitating the build-a-new-bridge approach for TREK V. He sez that they saved the entryways from the lifts and some of the structural elements on the upper level as well as the helm/nav console, but that was about all that survived. So now the question is: (and maybe somebody who has all the TNG box sets w/ their extras has this answer) At what point did the TOS movie bridge buy it? Was it before TNG geared up, or was it after EAF or TNG's first season wrapped? Maybe then we can figure out if the battle bridge WAS the TOS movie bridge, or based on the extra skins created for and left over from phase II, or, as per Zimmerman's odd claim, a whole new set.
