I'm watching the Bluray of Star Trek casually (I'm going to go thru it to spot all the easter eggs later) but I happened to spot the Vulcan ship from First Contact inside the Narada shortly after Spock steals back the Jellyfish.
I looked a little closer, and spotted multiple ships, a Klingon BOP, a TOS Romulan Warbird, a second Vulcan ship, and something shaped like the Defiant...

That is pretty goddamn lame. Why would... Fuck it. It's not worth even trying to make an explanation for that movie.

Would you mind making some screencaps of the Starfleet ships? I'm thinking particularly of the spacedock stuff, that shot of the Enterprise with the Newton, Defiant and third ship, and wreckage of the Farragut/Mayflower/whatever.

Maybe Nero has been doing some pirating during the decades between when he arrived and when the movie takes place. Or maybe it's some kind of equipment that just... happens... to be shaped like an old Vulcan ship.

Just because you see it, doesn't mean it was actually there for real (because, if that rule is followed, a whole REALLY fucking big bag of shit is gonna be flamed with the Falcon from SW in First Contact... )

So they have shuttles with the same engine layout as a Vulcan design, that's great. It's also the first bit of design from the TNG-movies inserted into the new continuity, after only having seen TOS-inspired stuff. This is a detail that 95% of the audience wouldn't pick up on, they did it for the fan base. Those large pylons and things in the middle of the picture, deeper into the hold, are they platforms or ships held in suspension? The "Defiant"-looking ship in the right of the picture looks like one of the romulan shuttles seen on DS9.

Assuming that those are indeed FC Vulcan Landers, and that they're just easter eggs and technically not supposed to be there, does the Narada have any shuttles at all? Does it even have transporters?

I think I started the "does the Narada even have transporters?" thing the other day, but Spock apparently does say Nero "beamed me here" to the surface of Delta Vega.

Do you have access to deleted scenes? If so, the Klingon "warbirds." (Not to mention the Kobayashi Maru test where you see them too.)
