It must be. I just looked through my pics from before, during and after the restoration and that spot isn't in any of them.

Thanks. Seemed odd place even if there was a screw there. Or finally we have found the illusive ion pod!

Gary Kerr, well known to enthusiasts in this thread, had this to say about Tomy's new replica that he helped with:
“This model represents the culmination of my 30+ years of research and data related to the studio model,” said Kerr. “The saucer separation capability, designed with input from well-known starship designers, sets this model apart from all previous efforts. The level of detail, saucer separation, working lights, and overall die-cast metal construction demonstrate extraordinary attention to detail.”

Well, you might like them or dislike them, but they were there on the model. In person they’re very subtle, because you’re looking at pencil lines lightly scribed on a 5’ saucer. I do love the original, warts and all—and trust me, there are warts.
