A USS Yamaguchi and Excalibur light-up model miniature from sci-fi TV series Star Trek: The Next Generation. This miniature of the Ambassador-class starship was built to serve as two Federation ships, including the U.S.S. Excalibur in the Season 5 episode "Redemption II" and the U.S.S Yamaguchi which appeared in the first episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. The saucer top is currently marked as "U.S.S. Yamaguchi NCC-26510", and the rear of the model is still marked "Excalibur".

The model is the same design as the Enterprise-C and was made from the same moulds as the Enterprise-C model but was ultimately not used as an Enterprise. It is made from cast resin reinforced with fibreglass, and features styrene detailing. It sits on a metal display stand and features two wires protruding from the bottom. The starship illuminates when powered. The model is accompanied by its original wooden crate which has "Enterprise 'C'" handwritten in blue ink in two places, and "Trek TV" handwritten or stamped in two other areas.

Well-used in the Star Trek saga, certain decals have come away or show wear from use and age, with the model exhibiting minor cracks and wear to the paint finish.
