STAR TREK: DS9 "I.K.S. NEGH'VAR MODEL STARSHIP" VENTRAL | |||
First appearing in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Way of the Warrior" as the new flagship of the Klingon Empire, this model of the "IKS Negh'var" arrived at "Deep Space Nine" on a mission to secure the Alpha Quadrant from Dominion invaders believed to have taken control of the Cardassian government. The ship was only ever seen from the underside in an effort to give the viewer a sense of its awesome size and thus the detail present on this model is excellent while the dorsal side remains featureless, though intact. Other, later ships of the same class arrived in episodes like "Shattered Mirror" and "The Emperor's New Cloak" but the model used in those episodes was a 30 foot long mock-up made to balance out the scale of the "USS Defiant" model. In fact, at approximately seven feet long, this model has perhaps a more timely history as being the first of its class since the similar ships appearing in Star Trek: The Next Generation's "All Good Thingsā¦" were of a different class altogether. Imagine! This impressive item hanging from a ceiling, seen as it was meant to be seen, striking awe into its viewers as only Klingon style design can! The ship is made of wood painted green with raised detail in mauve, dark green and yellow. Small green painted dots cover the ship to simulate windows. On each wing are warp nacelles with electrical capability however the electronics are untested. There are also numerous LED lights over the ship that are also untested. Weapons towers are on each side of the body with intricate detail. Several of the towers components are not attached but can be glued back on. On the right wing is a Klingon emblem application and on the other wing is red Klingon text. A weapon on the front of the nose is also detached but can be glued. The ship has wire supports around the nose, attached to the wings and in the center. The underside of the ship is smooth and painted green with the power cord coming out of the center. Measures approx. 84 x 68 x 13 inches. |
