Incorrect TOS Phaser Model PS4/5

in PS4 Gameplay Bug Reports
Greetings Everyone,

A few days ago someone posted a picture of A TOS Captain, using TWOK undershirt to mimic the look of 'The Cage' TOS Pilot episode. I noticed that the hand phaser pistol in that picture is coloured & has the correct model for the TOS era, NOT the Strange New Worlds phaser pistols either btw. Link = https://www.reddit.com/r/sto/comments/13uo80g/what_uniform_top_is_this_guy_using/

I was pretty sure that my TOS hand phaser pistols are all black & white, even the ones purchased from K-13. The phaser pistols on the weapon racks in K-13 are the correct coloured ones.

I just went to K-13 & bought -

1x 'Advanced Fleet Federation Type 1 Phaser (Wide) Mk XII (CrtX) (Dmg)x3'

1x 'Advanced Fleet Federation Type 2 Phaser (Stun) Mk XII (CrtX) (Dmg)x3'

1x 'Advanced Fleet Federation Type 2 Phaser (Wide) Mk XII (CrtX) (Dmg)x3'

Well, they are all black and white TOS models, so is this a bug? Or am I missing something? Again this is on PS4/PS5 I'd guess it is the same on Xbox too.

    The whole point of K-13 is to allow TOS-era stuff to enter the game, so it's not surprising these phasers all have TOS skins.

    Yes, you are correct, however, what I am saying is that the TOS skin is the wrong one. They obviously SHOULD be TOS era phaser models.

    I am just pointing out that, the TOS era phaser model is incorrect. It is black & white, it should be coloured blue & black, like the mission reward phaser in Night Of the Comet.

    I also reported a bug where the K-13 hand phaser actually switches colours from black & white to blue & black, depending on firing mode. As to which has been noted and they are investigating.

    Just a quick update, seems this bug has been around since TOS Starfleet first launched!!

    Utterly shocking, this needs looking at.
