This made me laugh out loud. Talk about a warped [pun!] sense of humor. It must be great/awful working for him.

They do bear a strong resemblance to the 23rd century shuttles...  A little longer, but I've always suspected that the Starfleet versions really didn't have room for the power plants and life support machinery, so these may be closer to what a "real" shuttle would have looked like.  I like them!

Are you going to sell some that way?

Hey, but you're still alive and kicking!  8) Are you sure you weren't wearing a blue or a yellow shirt?  :D

Thought I recently saw photos of Jason visiting Model Railroader headquarters wearing a yellow Star Trek shirt?

I'd buy these.  Or maybe a Movie-era set.

Though the warp drive is correct, the anti-matter containment is obviously from an earlier class Enterprise.
