Can I just point out that Picard's Borg flashback in Star Trek: First Contact featured not only new-style Borg cube interiors, but also new-style Borg, Locutus included?

What about different points of view or alternate universes/timelines? That could explain the costumes and cubes. Maybe different branches of the borg. Or blah blah blah...I think I'm babbling...

Unsure about the wine thing...

Plato was all about (among other things) how objects are all theoretically perfect but we see flawed representations of them with our senses. To apply it to Trek, all Klingons look perfectly Klingonish, but the TOS one and film/early TNG ones are false perceptions.

despite their specie differences, borg drones are different? I haven't noticed. Though, I did See Seven Of Nine's Borg eyepiece. it was pointy unlike some other drones.

She also seemed to have some type of miniaturized fusion containment vessels mounted ventrally on her torso, which other borg seem to lack.

Of course the Borg are different. I can think offhand that they have differing eyepieces, some have the tops of their heads covered while others don't, they have differing arm attachments...

Of course the Borg have differnt drones for instance they have the tactical drones not to mention the Queen and Locutus.

Which makes me wonder if the borg have more other specialist drones i.e. medical(wasn't there a Borg Drones with a Dermal regnarator in Dark forntier?)
or engineering drones.
