ABOUT THE DESIGN

ABOUT THE KIT

Before the Enterprise-B became part of "Star Trek" canon, fans long speculated that the starship that occupied the space between the movies' "Enterprise-A" Constitution Class refit and the Ambassador Class "Enterprise-C" from "ST:TNG" was some sort of Excelsior Class variant.  This was proven correct in the prologue of 1994's first "ST:TNG" movie, "Star Trek-Generations."  That script called for TOS's Captain Kirk to be blown out of the engineering section during an emergency repair operation; so as not to damage the original Excelsior filming miniature, the model makers added an extension to the engineering hull, then slapped additional impulse engines to the main saucer and customized end-caps to the warp nacelles just for good measure.

Although produced in the same 1/1000 scale as the original Excelsior model, this Enterprise-B kit faithfully captured all the upgrades made to actual filming miniature. It was only produced briefly following "Generations"'s 1994 release, and is therefore somewhat hard to find today.

This model was built from an original issue.
