The USS Trinculo was seen in a traveling exzibit that went around various Planet Hollywoods in the mid 1990's. The USS Venture model was seen in 1995 in a Planet Hollywood around the same time the USS Trinculo model made a tour. Few photos are around of the latter model... some of which was destroyed in a hard drive that was crushed during a minor earthquake in Los Angeles. I am the owner of that hard drive...

The scene in question is of the fleet moving out from Starbase 375 (the super-sized Regula model) in SOA.
What we really need is agood screencapper to save us. Help us Cartman- you're our only hope!

Hmmm... I had to lighten it in Photoshop to see it, but yah... that's weird. The dark lighting of the shot is probably why I never noticed it before.

Yes, weird..and obviously intentional (though not lighting the main impulse engine might be an oversight by VFX guys *somehow* unfamilliar with the ship).

Give him some slack- his country always gets stuff later than we do.
I'm sure Andrew is sporting a Members Only jacket even now.

Whatever, anything outside the U.S. is backward and behind the times.

Yes, I thought Austin was Andrew for a moment- the post had Andrew's flavor of writing and I was busy with work stuff and not paying much attention.
Though... Germany is home to many fans of David Hasselhoff's music so I may not have been too far wrong with my joking assesment....

Plus another 12 at Ft. lauderdale International Security Megaplex.
Longer if they lose your shoes like they did my sister's (only about 15 minutes, but still). YOu culd lose your Member's Only Jacket in the confusion.
As I now work for Fed-Ex, I could arrange you to be shipped cargo- kinda chilly. You'd thaw out quickly though, in our 94 degree weather today. ...and yes, I do mean celsius.
Plus, my car has no A.C.,and my Fed-Ex uniform is long-sleeved and pitch black.
I may need to borrow a jacket (not your's though!) when I finally get to Hell.
