A screen-matched Talarian spacecraft filming model miniature from Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek: The Next Generation. In the Season 4 episode "Suddenly Human," the Enterprise responded to a distress call of the Talarian vessel, where they discovered five teenagers: four Talarian and one human. This model miniature screen-matches based on the placement of the lights at the starboard side fuselage, and unique paint patterns on hull and top and bottom wings. Additionally, it is also briefly re-used in "The Perfect Mate" via re-use of stock footage as a Kriosian ship.

Built by master model maker Greg Jein, this ornately detailed model miniature is constructed from fiberglass with resin and styrene components around an aluminum base. The spacecraft is hand-painted in shades of brown, gray, and copper with additional Talarian markings hand-painted throughout. It features internal wiring for the lighting elements, two rear engines, two elongated vertical fins, and an unthreaded mount at its bottom. Also included is a display stand.

The lighting elements remain nonfunctional, as the original wiring is not accessible without breaking the model apart. The model also exhibits notable adhesive marks and residue, cracking, missing trim, and a buildup of grime in the fine crevices. Dimensions: 24" x 12" x 18" (61 cm x 30.5 cm x 45.75 cm)

Contains electronics; see electronics notice in the Buyer's Guide.

Estimate: $10,000 - 20,000
