@M500 @cm0002 I think that’s amazing and wonderful. Any Star Trek vehicle from any point can be anyone’s gateway. And that’s why it’s still here. Rock on you!

Watching squabbles over this stuff is depressing. I have specific Trek I’ll avoid, but that’s me, and bringing it up over and over in every conversation is lame.

@M500 Season 1 and most of 2 of TNG is hard to get through because it's pretty campy. Wesley went on trial on a planet because he crushed some flowers. They were going to put him to death. :ablobflushed:

Personally though... I'm very into The Wrath of Khan. It's my list topper of great Trek. And I think that causes a lot of my disdain for "Into Darkness". Every time I've watched it, it makes me like angry? Which is weird I guess, but I can't objectively watch it. It's always with judgement.

I did a video on the new 2023 Ent D vs the 1992 one. As updated and shiny as the lighting is, the hull details are really atrocious. The entire bottom side of the toy is not detailed color wise.

I was hoping to fill out the old Playmates Bridge with crew that fit in the chairs, and they got 3 out of all of them.

A decently cast type 2 TNG Phaser with good buttons & an updated tricorder with better SFX feels like a no brainer.. Marketing is weird.

@HWK_290 sure!

A lot of the people replying to the vid said the same thing. Because the ‘92 had nacelles that detached for packaging, they were easily lost. Also, the version I bought on eBay didn’t come with a display stand from factory.
