Some people just have too much money, shame I'm not one of them

 

[Darth Kahnt]

Even if I were extremely rich I cant see myself paying that kind of money for any prop, model or any other related item. Unreal...

Anybody know if the Enterprise A's at Planet Hollywood are the same scale as THE A?

If you own a sci fi museum you would.

Tim, my understanding is the PH model is a copy of (or the original) the one Brick Price made for TMP. I think it's only about 4 feet long. Best as I can recall. . .

The most important thing regarding Paramounts selling of these pieces is that they will now be carefully cared for and hopefully placed on display for public viewing. They will no longer be mistreated...well.. hopefully...

Thanks.

I think there is a model from Phase2 at the one in NY, and the PH in London has one that looks like the one that was sold. But i believe it is smaller...

I would enjoy seeing pics of the Phase2 Enterprise model. I didn't know one was actually made.

Kurt,

There is a thread on this model here:

http://www.starshipbuilder.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1193

It's not really the "Phase II" as that project was started and never finished. Word has it the actual Phase II model was built by Don Loos (IIRC). This model was built by Brick Price. It basically looks like the TMP final design but with the Phase II nacelles, so it is a strange "hybrid" miniature. It's about 4 feet long, or 1/2 the size of the final TMP filming model.

When I refinanced, my house was valued almost double that., (and that's a generous almost).

I could sell my house,....buy the 1701-A, and move us into a tiny apartement where we would live happily ever after.

As crazy as that sounds,.....God, do I love that model,.....though I think I'd only part with scratch like that for the 1701 Refit from TMP.

We'd still live happily ever after. Small apartments come with a car-port y'know. I could live in that and give the "A" the apartment.
:lol

Is that weird?

Don'tjudge me. Any of you would do the same.

Last I checked, the Las Vegas PH had one of these. I have a series of photos of it. The detail on it is NOWHERE NEAR what you did on the DeBoer Hulls kit. Yours could be used on screen; the PH models really couldn't...

 

[Kuhn Global]

Thanks guys.

I had always thought the Phase II was supposed to have had the original 1701 dish?...guess not..lol.

Man that Phas II shuttle bay is freakishly weird to my eyes.
