This is a very cool project, like it a lot.

What about changing the current playfield color palette to darker tones and gradients to give it a more evil feel.

I also wonder what it might look like if the graphics were updated a bit for a newer look and feel.

The original artwork just screams 70's to me, I know, I know this pin was originally made in 1978, but there is no reason it can't be updated without losing the original flavor.

Quoted from Zitt:

My issue with screencap is it kinda looks out of place with cartoonized Evil-Spock and Evil-Uhura... but "matches" the screencaps of the foes.

I agree it does look out of place, I would suggest trying to source all the images from the same place, if at all possible. Comic books and internet fan art is great place to start looking.
Especially try deviantart.com lots of great artist on that site.

Here is just a quick and very rough idea of what I was talking about going with darker colors.

Lets know how you end up cutting the shooter groove.
Keep up the good work.

Sorry to hear that your weekend did not go as planned.
The whole cad file thing really sucks.

What program did you end up using to correct the errors?

I'm digging the shooter scale idea.

Very cool, did you get the sound effects working? Hard to tell in the video.
