I meant the model in the link you provided.
Looks bigger than the 2.7 stated length to me.

Yeah, I was talking about the Enterprise model- it's not the big expensive version- that's much larger (and I doubt they'd risk some ass knocking it off the table after too much champagne).

Nope, I think that is indeed the one and only studio model of the ship, which can also be seen here. That site says it's approximately 7 feet long, though I think I've heard 8 elsewhere. Perhaps you're thinking of the gigantic replica from the Experience? (Pictures of that coming soon from me! )

It's just that the one on the table does not look that big in the pics.
Stupid of them to have it anywhere near food- some ass could easily slop something on it.
I'm kinda suprised that Workbee model has not found it's way onto an Ebay prop auction yet....

I don't see the problem with them putting it near food. It's not like it's ever going to be used again.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

While I tend to agree with Timo's statement (for design reasons), I do think it belongs in a museum.
Why not after all? that silly shround of Turin is in one and that's hardly a signifigant object of worship comared to the Enterprise.

Really? I thought it was on some sort of touring museum exhibit a while back. All the pretty golden (read: stolen from the oppressed masses) papal objects were recently on display at our museum.
Meh...makes sense, I suppose- bits and chunks of various saints are kept in jars and boxes in churches as relics, so why not the shroud?
Still, I think the Enterprise is more of an international icon than one religion's bogus bloody cloth (thus warranting Smithsonian status- I mean fuck plenty of other T.V. crap is already in there).

I saw them in there. I can't remember the episode...

See!?! that pic proves the Workbee is 3 meters long!
You should add Teegan and Turlough wandering around in there somewhere....

And that TOS shuttles are larger than Runabouts, but it's still a nice image.
Mabye Harry Kim is just really small (explaining why he was always overlooked for promotion.
