What are your thoughts on this?

[Elizadolots]

I'd sure hate to lose the apparently functionless things that stick out of the wall and can be pulled out to be used as weapons in a fight...I always loved that little design detail.

I think they'll have to at least pay homage to the original design...

[NCC-73515]

If it has a horizontal warp core, I'm fine...

Agreed.

[Oregon_Coast_Trekkie]

I'm sure it will have some sort of an updated look

[Saquist]

well if it' all revamped then don't leave out the engine room. I actually don't want to see a open cavity warpcore. It should be almost completely intergrated core...non ejectable.

[Zardoz]

Eliza-

Yeah, the engine room was allways good, if one needed a weapon, or a giant wrench!!

I'd love to see an intergrated, horizontal warp core, a tribute to TOS's original design.

Saquist-

Makes sense with the layout that it would eject. Good call!

I think if they take the original ideas from the blueprints and the 60's show and then tweek them to make them more realistic, it would be awesome. I still have both sets of NCC-1701 and they have some great ideas that were never realized on film. (In 1973, an officially licensed set of blueprints of the ship was done by Franz Joseph)

[Saquist]

Starships back then didn't have the whole ejectable thing working for them
There was a theory that the warp core of the consitution class was in the nacelles.
remember these ships were like subs...no excape pods or ejectables...

with exception of the constitutions saucer.

[Zardoz]

But even the saucer seperation was never used on TOS to my knowlege, and only mentioned in an episode. Would look cool though. I would assume at that time it would be a emergency, and it would be perment.
