  1. TrekYards is also covering your design William. They really like it too.👍 They are confused by the designation as a Crossfield class, though. Did you have any input into that? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SI5sIK6ZPKQ&t=965s Chris
  2. I am so down for this. I adore B5 and love the tiny tweaks to the designs that can be done with animation to the sets an stuff to make them look a bit more…”real” Chris
  3. So fun fact, he played the Captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise in a movie that featured Gates McFadden as the wife of a man named Jack. 😉 That movie is “The Hunt for Red October”
  4. Awesome! B5 is one of my all time favorites! Chris
  5. Did freaking Kurtzman really try and take credit in that video 😂🤦‍♂️ Chris
  6. Wow that does look really good! Chris
  7. The engines are just a little too big but manageable to me. Much better than the grossly undersized ones on the previous UCS set. My main gripe is the nose looks so fat. If you can figure out how to slim that up please share. 🙂 Chris
  8. I was able to preorder the SSD at LEGO.com months ago somehow. When they first put it on the site they must have messed up and had it for preorder instead of coming soon, so I had that on order for a while now. Looking forward to seeing what the UCS Venator will look like later this year. Hope it scales well with the UCS Star Destroyer. Chris
  9. Grabbed one this morning too. No muss no fuss. Chris
  10. Ok so I went back and watched the battle scenes. Yes SD takes out some of the fleet and there is some debris floating around, but that beauty shot of Enterprise and Titan make it look as though there are no other ships around and show ALOT of wrecked ships adrift. Far more then are shown earlier. I’ll just chalk it up we didn’t see everything that happened or that scenes perspective just happened to show the majority of the “oppositions” losses. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Chris
  11. Did it though? When Spacedock fell, I don’t recall seeing ships adrift and broken up. I admit I haven’t gone back to check. Chris
  12. Enterprise, past and future 😎 One thing I didn’t get, though…..what wrecked the fleet?? They didn’t seem to be under much if any attack from Spacedock and they stated that the planetary fence stations were destroyed. I seriously doubt Titan did that much damage to them on her strafing runs. Chris
  13. Agreed, like I posted earlier….I wish it was just another Connie III coming on line instead. Chris
  14. I am going to do the same with Horner’s, but don’t see the option for the E-G yet. Yesterdays update said it will be an option in a few days.
  15. Overall I really liked it. I personally didn’t care for watching the D zip through the Cubes interior. That is ALOT of empty space in there then.🤷🏻‍♂️. As for the ships, naming, decommissioning, etc. well it’s not unheard of for relatively new/newer ships to be decommissioned and mothballed early. Happens pretty often actually. Perhaps the Odyssey class had issues or Star Fleet decided that the flexibility of smaller ships like the Connie III class would be able to be manufactured faster to fill in the gaps in the fleet. Now I would’ve preferred the Titan remaining the Titan and the Enterprise G just being another Connie III being commissioned, as the fleet obviously has suffered both in ships and personnel. Not only older officers being executed by the assimilated youngsters but I wouldn’t be surprised if many of those youngsters resigned due to trauma. So 7 getting command makes enough sense to me as does Jack being accelerated through his training. Chris
  16. To be completely fair and objective regarding the dimly lit bridges, it is not like many…if not most Star Fleet ships were dimly lit if not down right utilitarian even in the “heyday” of TNG. Even the shared parts of the Nebula class. Remember when Data took command of the USS Sutherland? In his Command chair Looking at the tiny view screen: Voyager was pretty dim too: as was the Ambassador class: Now I do like the more brightly lit bridge of the D but I think we may be forgetting what even our beloved TNG era has already clearly demonstrated. Honestly the Galaxy class seemed to be the aberration and not the standard. 🤷🏻‍♂️ They all did have carpeting though. 😎 Chris
  17. It would be ironic if now all the young officers have a new appreciation for how Shaw and other senior officers felt about the Borg and possibly his hesitance to use Seven’s Borg name and what it represents. Chris
  18. That guy is so awesome. I love how he is embracing his role and popularity. Chris
  19. So I’m still very confused as to what Vadic and her crew/ mercenaries are. I know the are some for of changed Changlings but is she just the tortured founder that ended up modified or is she combined with the scientist that tortured her? I ask because in this episode Riker asked one of her crew “how much of that goo did they make you swallow” or something to that effect, and in her flashback what was happening to the scientist was a little vague and it looked like she was sort of being transformed or something. Also if there were only nine of them how are there SOOOO many of them now? 4 were killed on the Titan alone BEFORE the boarding action (the transporter chief and the 4 that Jack Jason Bourned) yet they are all through Star fleet and then her crew as well. Did I miss something or has this just not been explained yet as the big baddie has not yet been revealed. It just seems as though Vadic and her crew/type hasn’t really been explained. I’m a little concerned they won‘t be.🤷🏻‍♂️ Chris
  20. Episode 8 was ok for me as well. This whole Titan taken over storyline was just meh for me. Too many plot conveniences for me that made me more annoyed by things then invested in them. They aren’t bad episodes but I’m glad it has been wrapped up. A reviewer that loves this season did say that it feels like there isn’t enough story for 10 episodes and that the season does feel a bit drawn out. I would definitely agree with that. These season long stories do get a bit old when things keep getting drawn out until the end. DS9 had a good balance of serialized story telling along with stand-alone episodes I think. When we are in just one story and the answers keep getting pushed further and further away it can be taxing on the viewer. We know nothing will be answered or solved until the end of the season and it leaves one feeling hopeless in the interim. At least for me it does. I hear episode 9 has a lot of answers finally so we shall see. Chris
  21. Same for me
  22. I haven’t looked yet. Just opened the package quickly to have a look. I’ll let you know later. Chris
