Re: Brand New News from Round2
I wish it would've included news about a new Cadet set. For Klingon fans, the re-release of the Vor'cha is welcomed news

Re: Brand New News from Round2
I still don't know where the 1:750 scale designation for the Galor comes from. The original design length was 481 meters, same as the Vor'cha and the two kits are nearly identical length. It was scaled down to 372 m for some effects shots in DS9 but a 750 scale of a 372 meter ship would be 19 inches long.
Long story short I'm displaying that sucker w my 1/1400 fleet and I'm not changing my mind

Exactly. Well, sorta.
It's pretty close to 1/1000 scale at roughly 15.5"-is, using the 372m length. It should scale out to around 17"-ish. So, the one I recently purchased gets added to my 1k collection. And I'll purchase a second at some point, along with the Keldon-class conversion kit from FedMods.

But really it appears the DS9 licensing department used the same attention to detail as the DS9 VFX guys, who gave us a Defiant anywhere from 50 to 200 M, not to mention the ever-changing size of the station itself.

Hey I love the Defiant. I just don't know why it was so hard for the DS9 VFX crew to nail down something as simple as how big it and the station were.el gato wrote:Told ya!RogueWolf wrote:WHO DARES DISTURB MY SLUMBER WITH THEIR DEFIANT BLASPHEMY!!!el gato wrote:
