[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: Been a while, but I was just reviewing the thread. Actually, wouldn't Occam prefer it other way around? It's a simpler explanation that whoever kept the model on their desk after it was used noticed it was wrong and flipped it around (the rollbar is one individual piece of the kit and this could be easily done, right?) than to think that there were two separate models labeled the same thing.[/QUOTE]Here's the problem with that theory. If the rollbar was facing the wrong way for filming, and then someone decided to fix the orientation later before taking that photo, then they would have either had to break apart the rollbar from the model or cut it off somewhere and then reposition it. 1) It's extremely hard to break something off of a model that's already been cemented in place without breaking it in unintended places, and 2) if it was just sawed off with a Dremel and then re-glued, that should be noticeable in the photo. It's not. Plus, (And I won't be able to verify this until either a clearer pic emerges or WOTW is upconverted to HD), I think I can see where the ship's name starts in the screencap. The Trial's "U.S.S." starts above the beginning of the second C in "NCC", but in the screencap it starts above the N. And honestly, I have no idea why anyone would try to "fix" a disposable plastic model kit used for far background shots once it was filmed. When I got the U.S.S. Curry photos from Mr. Dan, I didn't even try to fix my model; it was easier to just build another one. And my model was not a down-and-dirty kitbash like these were. [/QB][/QUOTE]
