Quoted from Zitt:

The blue is recessed in the model with a oval lens.
Not a standard blue LED shoved in a hole.

Agreed; I guess is marginally better than nothing. I just wish they'd put a little more effort into the model.

Zitt is correct, wile the ship doesn't look too bad from the players point of view if you take a closer look it's not a complete ship, it's missing the freaking bottom. Wile I don't expect Stern to put a master model reproduction in the game , for almost 8 grand they could have done a little better. Just sticking a few LED's on a half ass ship is kinda lame. But I still love the game.

Wile I am not a big fan of more than one version of a game being made,I understand why they do, different strokes for different folks. I have never been a big fan of changing or modifying my games. I like to keep them as original as possible. With that said their are exceptions to every rule, take my STTNG. I did add a ColorDMD as well as lasers in the gun turret but that's as far as I go. Wile most people replace the ship models and even add a few more and change the positions and turn the shuttle craft and the Klingon bird of pray around so they face you, I left mine original but if I do make a change it's always something that I can change back to it's original condition. Nothing wrong I guess with adding bling but to me even if it's done tastefully, to me it's the same as defacing the game and lowering the games original value. But if it's your thing go for it.
The only thing I have plained for my STLE is installing a ColorDMD and adding speaker lights which I thought Stern had already done like the one they had on the factory tour. It clearly had LEDs in the speakers.

Quoted from JimB:

If you look in the ColorDMD thread there are photos of the speakers lit up, so does that mean the current code isn't using them yet?

If you are talking about the Stern Star Trek LE and The ColorDMD Will it Fit ? thread, which I started.
The pictures of the one showing the speakers lit up is wdpvideo's STLE pin and I believe he added a Speaker light kit with some modifications and as far as I know he is the first to install the ColorDMD.

Quoted from iceman44:

And we joke about it! It's funny, I'd really love to see somebody mod the music to add in "More than a Woman" or "Night Fever" when the ball comes on, now that would be cool!......hehe

Looks like someone had the idea before Stern

Quoted from tbanthony:

On the actual topic of the thread, could an LE owner post an actual close up picture of the Enterprise. Whole lot of debating about something I've never seen up close. If it was posted on this thread, my apologies... but I went through the whole thread expecting to see 10 pictures of it from all angles and never saw one.

Here ya go.
