Glad you liked my design, and appreciate the detailed review! It was a fun challenge to bridge the NX-01 with the Constitution. Impressed at how much of the original details Eaglemoss was able to squeeze into that tiny model. Hope you get the magazine soon as there's quite a bit more material regarding the ship. Cheers - Meni
I love this design. For me it is the perfect step between the NX era and cage/TOS era. I could even imagine this flying around with the Enterprise.
Agreed, its well done all-around.
Flip it upside down, and it would have made a perfect TOS style Shenzhou.
I was actually thinking this is where we got our Sheppard class for Discovery which many people say looks like flipped Shenzhou lol
I was thinking putting a third nacelle slightly below the hull to balance the visual appearance.
Yep, this is the Shepard class done in the TOS vocabulary.
I really like the ship, but I wish they had gone with the TOS straight warp struts.
"The aztecking heads up almost Mayan feel to it".
You do know where the phrase Aztecking came from right?
After the geometric designs and patterns of Aztec symbols.
The Aztecs were a northern successor-state to the Mayans, a thousand years later.
It’s interesting how it bridges the NX all the way to the refit look. It clearly has the layout of the NX era, it has most of the appearance of TOS with some NX details, but it also has things like the ribbing on the saucer section that looks like the refit from the films, plus the aztecing. I can’t wait to get mine, a few weeks back I thought I was getting it only to be surprised to see the Enterprise F... and its horribly miss-aligned nacelles.
Awesome model. The first Bonaventure is Zefram Cochrane's first manned warp prototype from the TOS novel: The Federation. The Bonaventure was retconned by the Phoenix. Closest design from the novel's description is the small ship in this video with a big thruster at the back.
Personally, I really like this ship. It just has the right look for the specific time frame.
As always, please continue making it so 🖖
Wonder...maybe it would have made for a good Discovery?
It's "Bon" aventure like James Bond not "bone" aventure. ;-)
Wonder who was the Captain of that ship? Captain Bond?
@@driftbandit4740 LOL
Come on, Canada is a bilingual country. Common phrases like Bon Appetit, bon après-midi, and Bon Voyage are pronounced "bone" not bon.
Typical of Americans to have no knowledge of any other languages spoken in the rest of North America.
Non bon.
@@Jack_Stafford Your America bashing is typical too.
@@Jack_Stafford I'm not American first of all, second the ship is not Canadian so you should try to pronounce things the correct way once corrected. I also know Canadians often mispronounce just like everyone else because of their accent, this doesn't make it correct. Saint Bonaventure born Giovanni di Fidanza
Love this little ship and all these years later I have just purchased a second copy via E Bay ....you never know if my first is ever damaged. What a shame that Trash Trek crapped all over 'canon' meaning that we never got to see a real link between ENT & TOS. I always love the NX Refit (same again). Thanks for posting.
This design has really grown on me. The 1st time I saw it, I wasn't particularly keen on it, however seeing you rotate the model around gave me a whole new appreciation for her. She is a great design and fits well into the TOS era design philosophy. I would have loved to see her on screen.
I've liked the ship since the first time seeing it. The whole design makes sense, with the secondary hull apart of the saucer. So every deck of the ship is easily accessible. From what I've seen of the ship, its actually fairly small. I believe its just 4 or 5 decks, including the bridge.
So this is where the design for the TOS-inspired STO ships comes from, like the Gemini class, and to some extent the Perseus class. Looks great! ^^
The original Bonaventure was the Bon Adventurer a French East Indiaman refitted as a privateer by Louis nth for the revolutionary era Americans. It was John Paul John's ship during the battle were he replied to a surrender demands with, "I have not begun to fight! " and went on to win the fight.
Love the Design. Sleek and Stylish.
It has a cool 1965 T-bird look to it from above, dang cool ship!
I am sure we'll get the magazines sooner or later. The one for Spacedock just came in my mail 2 weeks ago and I've had that model for over a month now. I didn't know what to expect from the USS Bonaventure, and so was pleasantly surprised when holding it for the first time.
I definitely agree with all of your points. It's a really great design for a Ship.
Very cool. This has been a TOS design favorite of mine since I first saw it in the calendar. Definitely picking this one up. I'd pay to have a ship review on this one.
I love this design. It's a fantastic mix of TOS aesthetics and innovative design.
I picture the Bonaventure being used around the 2180s or 2220s and being phased out by the 2260s. It's a Warp 7 Starship and it's a successor to the NX, Columbia, Daedalus, and Cerastes class vessels but is older than the USS Kelvin.
THANK YOU...THANK YOU....THANK YOU....for getting back to starships. This video was great and it is much appreciated.
Nice design and fits what would be the "evolution" of Starfleet ships. It reminds me of a standard saucer split down the middle and grafted to the sides of an engineering hull.
Nice transition between the NX class, and the Constitution class. I dig it.
I like the animated series version of the Bonaventure more then this new design, but also really love the new deflector/saucer combo design, very flowy yet still TOS!
It's cannon to me... A bridge between ENT and TOS. But BUT what would the BRIDGE look like?
Capt. Foley that little warp engine is very cool.
Thanks for posting this captain
If you look at the Eaglemoss site, it the stand DOES go on at the nacelle struts. They have it pushed in pretty far to eliminate the wiggle.
From what I've heard, the slots in the stand piece were not made at the proper angle for the pylons to go in. Some people said that they filed the slots to make the pylons fit.
The mounting is correct. Mines is exactly the same and from what I've read online, no ones fits on the stand correctly.
Great Review, though I would like to see all the TOS models side by side as a comparison as well as the scale of the XLs to the regular releases. Thanks much.
Its dang sweet from the top! Its so 1960s, yet sexy and not gaudy like a lot of 1960s design was! Its like the older submarines, like the Albacore, they were more rounded and less cylindrical, that center spine through the saucer with bridge module is like a submarine, the flat step either side of the center spine is what really makes this thing kick, its what gives it that sharp "contoured flats" 1965 T-bird or 67 Plymouth Satellite look! It all just ties together nice and still having the sweet sweet sweet Matt Jeffries timesless aesthetic to it! Actually I changed my mind, I like this one better than the animated series version, though I still like that one as well.
I'm going to go out on a limb, (forgive timeline bashing here), I'll say that the Animated series is a subclass that was fitted with a more Connie style secondary hull, and could be considered a major refit of the integrated hull original design. This would make the animated series Bonaventure a lot newer than it is, and I've always thought it wrong that the animated series made it such an old ship!
Good looking ship Cap! I remember the one from the cartoon/animated series and this one is a winner!
The DSC Enterprise could still be prime as a 2220s Refit of this vessel or as a Predecessor to the Constitution class.
Looks a lot like STOs Patrol Escort lineup, specifically the Dervish and Tempest classes.
Just got mine today, love it!
Has it ever occurred to anybody else besides me that Scotty was looking at it through magnification explaining all the distortions....
I like the look of it! Nice ship!
I wish they would drop this ship in Discovery. Hopefully it will find its way into Star Trek Online at least. I like it.
God, I hope they don't DISCOfy it. At least with STO, they'll have a version that looks authentic. The Enterprise is ok but the rest of the ships in that universe look completely dissimilar (and for the worse) IMO.
Irish Trekkie has the magazine if you want a bit of a inside look while you wait for the magazine
Is the Impulse deck below the shuttle bay? I did not see anything obvious.
This should have been the Shenzhou if Discovery was allowed to use TOS assets.
Nice.
Captain Foley, where did you get that little warp core in the background?
It looks like the USB charger Thinkgeek sold that sits in your car’s cupholder.
I don't remember but he says exactly where in one of his first Captain's logs that takes place in this new ready room. I do believe he had to do some alteration to it, so it might have been the one with the car plug that was referred to. If you watch the first Captain's Log in this room, he kind of goes around and explains all of his decorations.
I question your OCD lol. 4:32 - there is some black smudges on the hull plates and the window print is clearly misaligned with the molded reccesses. 7:46 - The grey vents are very clearly smudged with white, not neat at all, and some of the blue is missing from the side of the nacelle, (9:33). 8:24 - the fin is not painted fully, big patches of white on it. The stand looks like it is 'universal' and doesn't really fit the ship at all. I dunno how much this costs, but I think it will probably be too much.
Great looking ship but where's the impulse drive at? Under the shuttle bay?
I was thinking that, there seems to be a small cutout directly beneath the shuttlebay?
@@MajorMagna, actually there are 2 cut outs under the shuttle bay. Time to get that Red Gundam marker, Captain Foley.
I saw the Eaglemoss rotation video on TH-cam and boy I thought it was cool. (I did also greatly enjoyed the Treckyards video on the miscellaneous versions of the Bonaventure.) Tell me this one doesn't look cool. Like the Cap says, it's like a pre-TOS NX.
I do like the way to worp engines are not too close to the hall.,..
Do you build any gunpla? Can you feature the Ptolemaios in Fleet Yards some day?
I found a solution to the stand not fitting the model. I found that the stand for the Enterprise F model fits the Bonaventure perfectly (correct angle for the struts) and the Bonaventure stand fits the Enterprise F.
I love a tight fit. :-D
Since the D took a suicide dive I can't unsee the seems I had to superglue together. Had half a mind to superglue her to the base.
That were a lot of ships to see and the captain and them wanted to get a good look at every one of them....
You should do a review of the USS-Enterprise NX-01.
Here's hoping it appears in a future Time travel episode of Star Trek: Discovery or any of the upcoming series like Star Trek: Lower Decks.
capt i don't know if u know that sto now as change the ncc-2100 is now the USS Georgiou ncc-2100 not the uss federation now and sto is soft canon i thought if u don't know or not
I like it a lot, honestly looks nicer than the connie
Can you do some comparisons to different eaglemoss ships in future reviews? Ex. Bonaventure, nx-01, TOS, Enterprise E.
The Ship has a TOS-DISC design.
I'd like to see another pair of nacelles on that ship, pointed down so the back has an X shape. 👍
have to wonder though where are the phasers?
The first mission of the Bone Adventure was a xenoarchaeology study.
Why didn't they send the book?
Cool ship!
Wonder how that ship would land?If those are in fact landing legs... Not much of a saucer separation in that design.
Jason McDonough Perhaps it ejects the nacelles and uses the leftover engineering hull as the third support?
Did they forget the impulse engines?
Ian Jones it kind of looks like they’re tucked under the shuttlebay, unpainted. Don’t know where else they could fit without the nacelle struts getting in the way.
This ships gonna help me flush out my fan Trek section31 tos era ship
These recent ships are but caricatures of the NCC 1701
One thing that Discovery did (love it or hate it), is made the 23rd century fleet not just variations and kitbashes based on the TOS constitution. Pretty much all fan ships from the time period were the TOS connie morphed into a different configuration
The paint on the bridge module is awful looking.
No, you didn't get th discovery book with your model. If you did CBS would have to take you to court
Thought the vents were anti matter vents?
I know it's short and stubby but I prefer the animated series Bonaventure.
its like a sub with warp engines...
Love this new ship, the book isn't that good... So much better than anything from Trash Trek Discovery. 😎😎😎
Bone-a venture! Baaahahahahahahahahahahaha

Non bon.
The ships name is Bona-venture not Boner-venture!
