    Must agree that the font is wrong... the original series used Eurostyle for a lot of the ship registry etc. (Not sure if the original one shown in the smithsonian has that font on it). The Starfleet Technical Manual circa 1976 however used it extensively for ship designations etc. I think they should model it, but more than anything, I want a playable game first. ;)

    actually, no, the SFTM does not use the correct font, the font used on the actual miniature is a slightly modified version of the Amarillo USAF typeface, I don't know for sure if that's the font they used in game though.

    Original model, now on display in the Smithsonian.

    That isn't the model that did the majority of filming in TOS. the one they used mainly was much smaller.
