Dobber Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 Fun First episode of the season. Love this show. Chris Quote
tekering Posted August 15, 2021 Posted August 15, 2021 Great to see some legacy ship designs get some love. 😃 Quote
Dobber Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 Episode 2 was a blast too. Lots of references to the E-D. Lol Chris Quote

Dobber Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 Yeah I’ll admit I didn’t know what the “Big Thing” was but Trek Yards explained it. Figured it was a reference from TAS. Chris Quote
Dobber Posted September 9, 2021 Posted September 9, 2021 Also Eaglemoss just announced an XL S1 Cerritos followed by an XL Lower Decks Titan coming in early 2022. Chris Quote

Dynaman Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 That looks like a $10 (inflation there) toy. Quote
Mog Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 At that price, they better add some lense flare and make every panel removeable! 😁 Quote

Also a remote for said lights & sounds. Quote
Lolicon Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 For 80 bucks that thing better have working shields and an ejectable warp core that can blow open a door. Does Eaglemoss use any clear parts for the lighted parts of the nacelles anymore or is it all just painted these days? Quote
Mog Posted November 20, 2021 Posted November 20, 2021 For reference about the removable panels: Quote

Expand Considering how terribly cheap their clear plastic inserts tend to look, I can't say I wouldn't prefer them all painted on. Quote
Dobber Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 Looking forward to its return. This and SNW have been real delights for me. Chris Quote
Seto Kaiba Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 I'm just looking forward to whatever obscure references they'll dig up. Quote

Seto Kaiba Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 So... I finally got around to watching Lower Decks season two today. To be honest, I feel like I'm missing something here. I'm watching this, but I'm not being entertained by it. The sheer density of the in-jokes and references to past Star Trek shows in Lower Decks is impressive in an abstract sense, but it feels like that's all it has to offer most of the time. Quote
Sildani Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 How I saw it: we have had some Star Trek episodes that were humorous, but as a whole the series was quite serious. Lower Decks reverses that, and puts the notion that the Star Trek Federation universe is nigh-perfect and everyone has a place in it, on its ear. Plus Miles O’Brien has a statue and is acknowledged as the single most important person in Starfleet. Job’s done. Quote
