Star Trek TOS shuttle plans?
« on: 26 December 2015, 04:16:36 PM »
Any Star Trek junkies here have plans/schematics of the Gallileo type shuttle from the Original Series? I would like to scratchbuild one for my 25mm figures.

On which, open shout here for anyone with old true 25mm Heritage Trek figures (or compatible ex MM range) to spare/sell/trade to please drop me a line.

Guess that is why I failed basic spelling 101

Anybody made one of these before?

What about, to save you some hassle....

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Johnny-Lightning-USS-Enterprise-NCC-1701-7-Galileo-Shuttle-Star-Trek-2004-/151918660109?hash=item235f0eca0d:g:F5kAAOSw9mFWI9KV

It says 4.5". That must be about the right size. Going by the plans, it seems about 9metres long, which roughly equates to about 5"?

There also seems to be 1:50 scale models out there. I don't know how rare they are.

Dunno, I thought this looked closer to six metres.



Always thought it had a bit of TARDIS to it.

Yeah, I agree that picture, if a person is roughly 2metres tall, would make it approx 6metres. The plans work out about 8 though.

Yeah, but, does it look like someone tall could 'comfortably' stand up inside it?

They even comment about that on the site of the folk trying to restore the original. Galileo Restoration

As I said. Tardis.  ;)
