New D7 (TOS) skin in game is gorgeous!

A big thank you to the dev team folks who did the work on updating the classic D7/K'tinga models!

The TOS D7 model is an absolutely spot on screen perfect rendition from the series. It is absolutely fantastic! THANK YOU!

    You're talking about it and you don't post a picture?!?

    My Gorn is using the K'Tinga, she sure is pretty. Two thumbs up. Five starts. Will return.

    Its a little odd that the Kelvin D7 doesn't have access to the new hull materials. I believe the Kelvin Connie does Fed side.

    can't dispute the OP. they did right by K'tinga. it's a far cry from what it used to be, with a too short/thick neck and too thick nacelles. the alpha skin, outside the capt's table station, in that light is extremely close to the eaglemoss K'tinga. there is one quibble I have with it. on the ventral side of the eng hull, there are 2 lights. just in front of those are 2 nodules. those are disruptors. cannon fire should not come from the nacelles, as the do in the TOS D7. either way, now I don't have to play the $7d version

    I am more in love with the K'Tinga. When I was a kid, I actually build one of those AMT kits of it. A friend of mine had that one, too. He assembled it better, but after seeing my paint job, he offered me his so I wolud paint it. In retrospect, my original paint scheme was not as good as the one I did on his one. (Still nothing extraordinary or accurate, but... good enough. Especially considering that the kit's instruction were in english, and I had no idea how to get the specific colors they mentioned there. Just got a lot of Revell Gray tones... It was worse for the Galaxy Class... What the frack is "Duck Egg Blue" supposed to be?)

    I am not sure, but I think all that was only added with the Legendary Bundle.

    Indeed...there is nothing fluffy about a Warrior's ship! They are glorious instruments of death.

    The rebuilt D-7 (with Alpha and Beta)/K't'inga and Refit are very nice. The component customizations are extremely welcome.

    I noted the struts connecting the nacelles to the main hull are not separate components. But considered a part of the main hull itself. The starship name appears somewhere on this hull depending upon which hull you choose. The Klingon font and number of letters seems the same. From one ship to another. I don't think it actually translates our name of choice from English? I wish it would. Like the Alliance battlecruiser does. We just don't need an English version on hulls is this instance.

    Also, fleet logos are not yet making it to the hull when selected.

    Probably in a legendary pack, just like the T6 Connie and T6 Romulan BoP.

    honestly annoys me they didn't take the oppertunity to release a legendary D7 on the C store. I'd have bought it in a flash
  • wideningxgyrewideningxgyre Member Posts: 710 Arc User
    I'd love a KDF legendary pack with: D7, B'rel, Vor'cha, Bortasqu' (and Mat'ha though I know that's a longshot).

    Well, this is only part 1 of the "Year of Klingon". If I had to guess, the legendary will be in part 2. Maybe. Possibly. Conceivably.

    Probably going to have D7, Kelvin D7, Discovery D7, B'Rel, Vor'cha, Negh'var, and Bortasqu.

    I could live without the Kelvin D7 and either/or with the Vor'cha or Negh'var to keep the cost lower...a 5-pack at a lower cost than the FED Legendary pack would be optimal in my mind.

  • rattler2rattler2 Member, Star Trek Online Moderator Posts: 58,671 Community Moderator
    The Kelvin D7 is actually a pretty good ship. I got a beam build on mine, and I love how she uses the Discovery Klingon cloak animations.
    I wouldn't take her experimental weapon into the Briar Patch though.
