I read that the Excelsior was built to replace the Enterprise model that I L M was tired of filming. But since fans were upset by the destruction of Enterprise, that the "A" was again. Constitution class. Never trust Deana Troi to steer a Star ship.

I think the Excelsior Class Starships were the first Federation starships built with a Battle Bridge and if you don't believe me look at that picture of the Masters Systems Display of both the U.S.S. Excelsior NCC-2000 and the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-B at the front of the ship for the forward areas and it says it right there near the label that says Photon Torpedo Launchers.

I don't know if it's a trick of the camera, but when looking at the B next to the Excelsior (And comparing it to my own), the proportions looks slightly... off for the Enterprise. I remember hearing that she was a completely new mold versus a retool, so do they look more similar in person?

Looked into something i know you've inquired about in other videos, the number on the display stand, i see yours is 2900 a/a, i checked mine and it is 6544 a/c, I'm guessing this is like a production number of some sort. Would be interesting to find out what it all means, so it seems every one has a different number.

Apparently the changes made to turn the Excelsior into the Enterprise-B were permanent and couldn't be undone without damaging the model, which seems a bit short-sighted to me, since it was a frequently-used model, and they'd modified the Reliant model several times (i.e. as the Bozeman) without doing anything permanent. In any case, the model was only ever used once more after that, as the Lakota (the ship that fought the Defiant in "Paradise Lost"), and when the Excelsior herself was used in the episode "Flashback", they had to build a new one from scratch (about half the size of the original). Every Excelsior appearance after that was either that model or CG.
@MegabyteUnleashed9 жыл бұрын
toddsmitts They weren't meant to be permanent. The extra bulge around the deflector was done so they could do the nexus damage without damaging the main model, and the rest of the add ons were to show the ship design has been beefed up. But the glue they used ended up damaging the original Excelsior model anyway, which is why it was kept with everything on for the Lakota.

Captain Harriman was just an example of the new starship Captains. All talk, no action. Kirk was a Captain of how it used to be done. " No, you stay on the bridge, with your crew. I'll do it." Captain James T. Kirk.2232-2293 ( ?)

I just got mine the other day and I really like it. My clear part of my stand is clear just like the others and not murky like yours. So it might be just yours. However there is a problem with my clear stand. It's bent, it's crooked. So when the ship is mounted it looks like it is leaning and turning. I had to come back to this video to see if it was supposed to be like that. I guess not, as your stands straight. So mine has this lean/turn look to it. It's pretty cool in one way with how it makes the ship look more in motion, but it's also a bit bothersome because now compared to the rest it's not straight. So I have mixed feelings about it. I suppose it's neat though that I might have the only one that looks like it's turning. Maybe it's caught in the nexus fighting the gravity wells. ;p

I'm noticing that Eaglemoss does some things very well and others really bad, often on the same model, from not painting the impulse engines to leaving off the name of the ship (Akira class). So while I kinda like this one, some aspects make me cringe, like the gaps and the "B". Still not sure if it's worth the money.

The Enteriprise-B (and Excelsior) is my favorite Trek ship... and they cheesed out on this one and the Excelsior - The Excelsior is the only one I haven't been satisfied with... they definitely should have made the secondary hull on both Excelsior-class ships metal... and the Secondary Hull on the Excelsior is too small and thin... its too front heavy, doesn't feel good in the hand and is not weighty like all the rest of the ships I've got so far... it feels and looks much more cheap, flimsy and toy like due to the lack of weight and substance... The Honshu and Reliant have about 3x the amount of metal, again I wonder why they cheesed out on these two - (my favs of course) when the rest are so good and solid - and the size is all wrong, it should be bigger than the 1701-A and its actually smaller... I busted out for the XL ship, which is supposedly great, and I read the secondary hull on XL is die-cast... just missed getting one for $60 - so I had to shell out for it :( - I was considering getting the Excelsior XL until I read that the secondary hull is plastic like the small one... not worth the extra $$
