| Moderator With Rocks In | Seeing how Kirk and Co. expressed wonderment at the size of the ship, it seems a bit that there would have been an older version of the design.. hence, there most likely was not ![]() |

Downloads: 1 Uploads: 0 | Seriously though, the Excelsior seen the ST:III is the original Excelsior. There is no TOS version because it isn't a TOS era ship. The Excelsior seen in ST:VI is the next step from Transwarp prototype to in-service starship. Sure, someone could try to design a TOS era Excelsior but it wouldn't make much sense from a logical point of view (are my ears pointy? )Who knows, might be interesting to see? ![]() |

people have made tos versions of defiant and akira class... just out of pure interest, what would it look like? would it be as rugged looking as the trek 3 style? i'd just like to see it, I think it's one of trek's best designs... rugged looking, powerful looking, like it can take and deal apunch when it's ancester was the Connie... just interested that's all. | |
