Just curious but… what starship from the ST universe is your favorite?
I enjoy almost any new design but , my favorite is the TMP or later versions of the Constitution class Enterprise.
The sequence from TMP showing the refit enterprise in space dock wiil stick in my mind forever. The ship was a thing of beauty and made an impression on me that will probably never be duplicated.[:P]
My favorite ship has got to be the Defiant. Just love that tought little ship with more firepower & engines than brains.
But, my favorite ship scene would have to be either the dock sequence from ST:TMP, or the battle over Cardassia.
The Reliant for sure.Next the Enterprise from the first few movies.
For some reason I like the Nova class starship (the ‘Equinox’ and modified ‘Rhode Island’ from the Voyager series).
I gotta agree with kylwel. It is the Defiant hands down. As soon as I finish fixing up my Jeep, I am going to get vanity liscense plates to say DFIANT.
I have always been partial to the Nebula class from TNG. It is nearly the size and power of the Galaxy class, but less pretentious. Nebulas mean BUSINESS.
For sheer beauty and grace, the Sovereign class gets my vote.
That’s an easy one:

What Matt said. [#ditto] I also love most any well thought out fan designs from the eras just before and after TOS.
Why Akira of course…
And maybe Nebula as a close second.
Hi there.
This might be a big reach. Since the show violates almost every cannon in the ‘ST Universe’. I could take or leave the show, but I love the NX-01.
So if this can include the ‘ST Multiverse’… Enterprise NX-01. It has that old battleship scrapyard look that I really like.
Thats my [2c]

I don’t think its a fair question! Its like asking who your favorite kid is! [:P] But here, I guess I can take my pick…

I would have to say the Akira and the Steamrunner. Though, something about the Saber is cool. Sovereign and Galaxy… never mind. I can’t make up my mind. [banghead][%-)]
My favorite is the Klingon Battlecruiser (D-7). It just looks like it’s made for war. When I used to play Star Fleet Battles by Task Force Games I’d take the D-7 over the Federation Battlecruiser (Contitution class) anyday. [:D][}:)]

Matt that isn’t the picture of the new 1/350 scale TOS Enterprise thats supposed to be coming from Polar Lights is it?
Preach it, brother! Especially the K’Tinga, in my opinion.
A very, very close second for me is the new pattern Romulan ship from TNG. That big, glowing warbird is very cool indeed.
Nope – it’s the smaller Polar Lights kit.

I have always liked the Dreadnaught class. I like the idea of a starship that go out and put a hurtin on things without being encumbered with the mission to explore new worlds. Nobody ever dispatched the New Jersey to explore little islands of the Pacific and make friends witht he natives.
IMO it is definitely the Klingon Bird of Prey. Supposed to be a cross between a predatory bird and a football player (huge shoulders) it definitely portrays the feeling of hostility… [:D] Even when decloaking the guns are the first to appear…
The grand gray lady of space, the Original Enterprise. And did I see a post above that says there is a 1/350 tos enterprise coming? I know about Polar Lights refit. Is that what you are thinking of? Or IS there a TOS Enterprise on the way??

I have to give a thumbs up to the D-7 and K’Tinga as well. Good, solid, no-frills look to it that meant business. My second would be the Bird of Prey, followed by the Romulan design from ST: Enterprise.
I guess I still like the old lady: NCC 1701D Galaxy Class. She’s sleek and sexy, but heavily armed without looking menacing.
