Rejected BOP Design

[Majestic]

While doing a google search for some last ideas for the Klingon faction designs in YY I cam across this. It's a rejected Klingon BOP design from Into the Darkness.

Still a pretty decent design for the alternative universe.

It's a lot better than other JJverse designs I've seen

Im kind of baffled why they did not go with this

I agree it looks pretty cool.

Same here I know it was not finished when it was rejected but still the basic shape and minor details would have been there at least.

It didn't look enough like a Steve Jobs wet dream to be accepted

Oh dear, Oh dear! The producers made a bad move rejecting this one, shame on them! :exter:

It actually looks like a natural evolution from the one seen in ENT.

Had a chance to look at this and I agree it's a pretty awesome design. To my eyes I see a bit of Romulan with the forward swept wingtips and the forward bridge module area has sort of an insect like appearance, but I love the design. I agree with Jetfreak that it seems like a natural evolution of the design from Enterprise.

Hello:
It is interesting how we all like that design, but it was still rejected... that surely can be an odditiy of movie producers .

I like how the neck design is not as pronounced as the normal-universe version of the ship, so less vulnerable, while it also the ship has a very unique industrial-look that seems to match very well with the Klingons of the JJ-universe.

This is such a better design than what they used, but knowing how these new movies are, it would be over 800 meters long:\

That's a impressive design for a Klingon Bird of Prey, to bad the design was not used. It would be cool to see this design as a Starship Mod for Armada 2.

thats pretty wicked actually. surprised they didnt go with it. i feel like they took elements of this for some of the STO designs though... or maybe thats just my imagination.

I really liked the images of the starship graveyard. They really look great! Strange, I didn’t see any Romulan ships.
