Please help...I found one at a garage sale a few years ago...but I need the battery cover!! Anyone out there an old wreck or have an extra battery cover I could buy? Please contact me if you do...it would really help me end my long search! I wanna hang her up. Thanks!
Let me tell you, when I had a Buzz Lightyear, I always imagined that it was either the U.S.S. Enterprise from Star Trek: The Next Generation and the U.S.S. Voyager from Star Trek: Voyager.
Mine also has the worn out buttons, I bought mine new in 94, It does come new with an extra battery cover without display stand attached. It was a cool ship at the time, I put the revell model decals on mine and hit it with a light dullcoat. This ship wasn't made in the quantity that the ent-d was, hence the crazy online prices. (the u.s.s. defiant is even worse)
@AricofBored Oh and the reasons the warp engines pivoted was to "alter the warpfield geometry" around the ship to make it more efficient. It saved gas.
I used to have this ship, I liked it at the time. I forgot how loud the nacelles were. (btw, the nacelles pivoting up/down was supposed alter the "warpfield geometery" of the ship.) Mine also suffers from worn out buttons. and I think one of the motors may be going out. However, I've had mine since 1995. If you are lucky enought to get a ship still in the box or complete, It
u know why the USS Voyager warp nacelles go up, Voyager uses variable geometry warp nacelles that have a new folding wing-and-nacelle configuration. When traveling at sublight speeds, the nacelles remain in a lower, flat position, but when Voyager's warp drive is engaged, the nacelles fold up into the traditional, higher-profile position. This new configuration means that warp fields generated by the engines will not damage the fabric of space.
The tilting wing nacelles can shift microns in their positions, emitting minutely adjustable warp fields that are more efficient and safer when traveling in subspace. This, combined with new verterion manufacturing and the APD-01 Warp Core, makes it’s propulsion systems super-advanced MY SOURCE .. voyagers technical manuel :D
I have had a Voyager for a couple of years and I have had no problem removing/replacing the ship from the stand. I do not know why yours would be screwed in?
yep, me again. on a scentific note. the reason the voyager narcells move up to a high postions is to enforce and create a better warp field or warp bubble around the ship. just this high for larger warp and when narcells are in stand flat postion, it is just for impulse sublight speed. .
Playmates, should re release the voyager toy model but with all the issues corrected. plus it woulod be a great i deal to make a voyager that is the correct size, compared to the USS Enterprise that playmates have realesed. this small voyager model still should have the same features as the USS Voyager that you JT reviewed. I must say, I dont like the new Enterprise model taken from the 2009/10 movie. it looks all out of proportion, with narcelles and main ship body. lets hope 4 a nu st movie.
Hey JT Mitchell, I liked your review on the USS Voyager, I do hate the blue colour bodywork, it should really be white, lik th eother starships to make it feel more real, one thing l noticed was that the underbelly section is so big that, it the forward torpeodos really did fire, it blow up its own lower hull. I know its a toy and not a revell mode. but the playmates peeps shoul really sort this or at least asking me along to point out some issues. I will buy another as l mentioned in last post
Hey JT Mitchell, I have been searching in UK for the USS Voyager for 10 years nearly. and I was lucky or unlucky enought to find one that was at a good price. under £50. unfortunately it was unboxed on ebay. the only issues l have had are no power to the warp narcelles. but I will replace the motor, which you can get cheap form a model shop. a tip l have concerning the blue element on the narcelles is to take them apart and insert silve reflective tap behind the blue lense. u will get better FX
The warp nacelles are on actuating pylons for a simple reason... When down, the impulse drive thrusters are in a wider stance for better manueverability... However, the pylons rotate upwards like that so that the vessel does not damage subspace as it travels past a warp factor of six or so... Also, the streamlining effect is part of the reason it can cruise with STABILITY at a warp factor of 9.975 :)
Ah, I used to have a lot of fun with this ship when I was a little kid. It's frightening to me, almost, to see how much it's worth on the aftermarket now!
I found one of these at a yard sale for 10 bucks. All the buttons were broken, and a couple of stickers were peeling, but I fixed it and the stand actually does come off and can be easily reattached.
The reason why these nacelles fold up is to reduce the damage caused by normal warp travel, damage highlighted in established in TNG episode force of nature.
I agree, I grew up watching TNG, but I love Voyager. It is because it is different from the whole exploration type moves in the original and TNG. Also I like Voyager, because it looks elegant (to me), small and efficient.
One of my nacelles goes slightly faster than the other just like yours. I am thinking of selling mine for some time, I just need to find another box to post it, even though I still have got all the packaging etc. Yours seems quite clean compared to mine which is covered in dust. What is on the back of the landeing pad, mine is blank? You can display it with the other voyager vehicles from the micro machines series. I have still got to bandai version unbuilt.
just a theory but the reason of Voyager being blue might be due to a different hull composition compared to the Enterprise due to either the discovery of a new element or maybe just what Voyager was designed for which was deep space exploration.
In the beginning. Voyager had a crew of 149 (Because Tuvok was gone) They were tracking a Maquis ship that had been thought to of been destroyed in the "No man's land" (I think) But they were mistaken. Captain Chakotay's ship had been yanked across the galaxy. 70,000 lightyears from home. The same happened to Voyager. You know the rest.
ok the the reason the the Nacelles go up and down.... Short and simple, ( comment back in you want to long version) in the down position the nacelles cannot generate the warp field that is needed t go to warp... so to do so then need to be elevated :)
@RC9831 In the star trek universe its actually bit more complicated, the official line is that the angle they go to (approx 45 degrees) makes the warp feild more efficent thats why their top speed is higher than the enterprise :D
man this guys arm looks like a harry salami. anyway voyager sucked as it was fully of crappy writing and crappy acting. the series had the chance to be the best of the series but quickly feel apart and fell back on the same corny plots and rehashed enemies. but on top of that they had a bat shit crazy captain who got them all fucked in the first place I could go on and on about how bad it was but its dead and done. man but it really really sucked
well voyager is my favorit star treck schow but this toy is like chrap sorry but the sound is lil metal sound in ? your right the motor is relay loud this have to go better i mean it locks okay to me but the sound and ther is no light on the worb thing hm nice toy but a toy to look not to say ya her it even sounds cool ps: i head a bird of pray one it head the saim creepy sound but i loved it until i broke it because i played to hard with it ^^
When will you wannabe-Voyager-cracks finally learn that they would've taken a lot more than 75 years. Janeway mentioned that they would need 75 years IF on maximum Warp all the way. And that's just impossible.
The Nacelles rise because 'it creates a more efficient warp field' which allows it to achive the fastest speed a federation vessel can go at warp 9.975
I had it. didn't care for it too much, they should have made it bigger than what it was made, the saucer dipped too low, and the aft end was goofed to place the gears for the motors that raised/lowered the nacelles.
now it came with two battery covers, one w/o base mount and one with
theres an episode in TNG where an alien scientist died proving warp drive was damaging space so at first ships were limited to warp 5 but then they decided to focus on redesigning ships to fix the problem and the point of the necels rotatiog was to make the warp field around the ship more streamline to limit the damge.. hovever 6 months after voyager was lost warp drived was redsigned completely which fixed the problem permenently w/ resulted in the enterprise e not having rotating necells
Hello there.. I too wasnt very happy with this Voyager considering the price I paid from EBay for it. Its just one of the worst ships playmates made and it showed that they wernt trying too hard by the late 90's. While DS9 and VOY had a small following most fans never embraced it until later in reruns. :( Thats how it was for poor Enterprise as well. What makes me mad about this toy is that the effects arent that great and the nacelles dont light up.
ya i wonder would it like to be a art asylum voyager but i agree that is kinda crappy he i was gonna ask you do you have the uss defiant if you do i hope you reveiw it im gonna get tasha yar admeral picard the hollow gram doctor {in yellow uniform} william riker and deanna troi and the transporter and i love your reveiws pleaze comment me back
voyager, is definately my favorite of the series. for the fact the story is completely different from the other series. being in a total different situation of the unkown made it way more compelling and intresting to watch. shame it wasnt really that big enough for them to make a few movies about the series. b/c it was really good.
Where can I get a model like this , I can't find one of playmates in the INTERNET could you give me a link of a homepage , where I can buy it ???? ;-))
Hey, thanks for the review. I managed to get one of these from ebay recently. Mine actually does come off the stand quite easily. Also, i found out recently that art asylum dont have any plans to make a Voyager model, much to my disappointment.
The Star Trek series toys from Playmates DID come with 2 separate battery covers... One had holes to insert the stand, and the other was just the bottom of the ship.
My Voyager is about 10 years old now and the torpedo button only works when I hit it with one finger very hard,the warp button does work fine,so do the warp nacelles.
The warp nacells do that because warp is essentially a pocket between space and subspace...and to succesfully create this "pocket" the nacells have to be slightly elevated so that the whole ship fits in the bubble :D
i bought voyager a few months ago march i think and i got mine from ebay for £50.00 or so as well as the original enterprise, enterprise d and the Borg sphere all from the same person!!!!!!!
The real explanation for the folding warp nacelles was to allow Voyager to travel beyond warp 5 without damaging subspace (remember the TNG episode where these aliens convince Starfleet that conventional warp drives were "polluting" the space continuum?). The design is called "variable geometry pylons".
I have the BanDai voyager and it comes with interior lighting, warp nacelles move with lights in them, and it comes with landing gear so u can pose the ship landed if wanted
fogot to say i bought the enterprise d as well for £11.00 from the same bloke the best thing is now i got the origanal enterprise, enterprise d AND voyager and never been opend all colectors edition too
in the episode of Star Trek TNG, force of nature, its found that warp drive damages the space/time contunum, so that the newer starshipa have new "viro geomerty nacells" so that they can better controle the ward drive, thus not damage the fabric of space!
try looking on ebay i bought the enterprise for £50.00 with lights and sounds although i haven't got voyager also my fave one they got some reasonable prices like i saw one ending tomorrow it includes enterprise e and d / voyager and a battle cruiser for £20.00 mind this i presume will go for quite allot because playmates are rare to get now
the warp nacells fold up and down for one reason because the ship was designed to land on a planet. so if the terrain was not perfectly flat, they could fold up. they fold up in warp travel because that positioning centers the ship in the warp field, you don't want the whole ship to be in warp and the bridge to be dragged along through normal space barely holding on to the ship.
i know why the engines fold, if u remember the TNG ep where a alien bro and sis bord the ENT-D
say that warp travel is killin there ppl, and shes blows herself up, big spacial rift opens... blah blah, turns out that warp travel does hurt space, So voyager had those fold up to help stop that for some reason and be able to go faster that wrp 6 in areas
It's possible that, considering what I explained before, that power only goes to the warp nacelles when the are up. So when they do go up, impulse power is deactivated leaving the ship to move with momentum only until they go to warp. When they drop out of warp and bring the nacelles down, power stops transferring to the nacelles and starts transferring to the impulse engines.
Voyager: Not made for heavy combat, smaller vessel used for exploration. Throw in they were cut off completely from Starfleet so they had to do repairs themselves.
Enterprise D: The flag ship of Starfleet, armed for heavy combat. Near constant contact with Starfleet; if they took damage they just had to zip into a space dock for repairs.
Saying the ship sucks purely because it took damage and had to be repaired is just stupid. You need to look at their situation as well.
That thing is a loud motor. The reason why the warp nacelles went up was to improve warp dynamics. The nacelles down was meant for better slower navigation since the impulse engines are on the pylons.
Also the Enterprise (Galaxy Class), Ambassador Class, and Voyager (Intrepid Class) were all a light blue-ish gray color. The models were light blue-gray as well. The Enterprise-E is back to light gray.
I tried getting into Star Trek I did get into Next Generation and Deep Space Nine. But they stopped viewing it for a while on BBC2 I didn't have sky then. I started watching things where people speaking That language and Get Married to it and other Bizare stuff. No offence to anyone But I hate Trekkies they tend to get TOO into it. I gess that stuff put me off it more But the new movie looks good might go to see it.
the reason for the moving nacelles is that in the trek story, some scientist found that exceding warp 5 in big starships was causing damage to something called subspace, and when voyager class was built, they found that having the nacelles move reduced this damage at higher speeds
out of universe tho, its definatly for the wow factor
I was just on AOL and they had an article on a new planet outside of our solar system that is 4 times bigger than Jupiter. Now mind you, Jupiter is 1,300 times bigger than Earth, so one could only imagine how big this new planet is to Earth. The discovery of new planets makes me wonder if there really is a "Cybertron", seriously. Call me crazy, but hey whatever. Anyway, this was a good review.
Voyager was a good series I watched it when I was in high school. Every Tuesday was Dark Angel and Wednesday night was Voyager followed by Special Unit 2. When seven of nine came into the cast I had a big smile across my face. It would be nice if they made the version of voyager with the extra armor plating the ship got in the last few episodes. I think the port nacells shifting upward is mostly for a wow factor maybe trying something new instead of the standard stationary look

The reason the nacelles go up is because the warp fields only go up or down.

My Voyager is about 10 years old now and the torpedo button only works when I hit it with one finger very hard,the warp button does work fine,so do the warp nacelles.

starscream565 2 years ago
The warp nacells do that because warp is essentially a pocket between space and subspace...and to succesfully create this "pocket" the nacells have to be slightly elevated so that the whole ship fits in the bubble :D

TOS, TNG & DS9 is Star Trek at its prime. But that's just my opinion.

enkopingsbo 2 years ago
The real explanation for the folding warp nacelles was to allow Voyager to travel beyond warp 5 without damaging subspace (remember the TNG episode where these aliens convince Starfleet that conventional warp drives were "polluting" the space continuum?). The design is called "variable geometry pylons".

in the episode of Star Trek TNG, force of nature, its found that warp drive damages the space/time contunum, so that the newer starshipa have new "viro geomerty nacells" so that they can better controle the ward drive, thus not damage the fabric of space!

try looking on ebay i bought the enterprise for £50.00 with lights and sounds although i haven't got voyager also my fave one they got some reasonable prices like i saw one ending tomorrow it includes enterprise e and d / voyager and a battle cruiser for £20.00 mind this i presume will go for quite allot because playmates are rare to get now

the warp nacells fold up and down for one reason because the ship was designed to land on a planet. so if the terrain was not perfectly flat, they could fold up. they fold up in warp travel because that positioning centers the ship in the warp field, you don't want the whole ship to be in warp and the bridge to be dragged along through normal space barely holding on to the ship.
roguecajun 2 years ago
the warp engines just look cool when they do that though, i think they did it because it just looks awesome
kingtorm2 2 years ago
i know why the engines fold, if u remember the TNG ep where a alien bro and sis bord the ENT-D
say that warp travel is killin there ppl, and shes blows herself up, big spacial rift opens... blah blah, turns out that warp travel does hurt space, So voyager had those fold up to help stop that for some reason and be able to go faster that wrp 6 in areas

Here's what I think is up with the nacelles:
When they're in the flat position, it helps for maneuverability, considering that it has impulse engines on the pylons.
When they're up it makes going to warp easier, and it keeps the ship stable at that speed. THis comment is continued......
MIDIacefro 3 years ago
It's possible that, considering what I explained before, that power only goes to the warp nacelles when the are up. So when they do go up, impulse power is deactivated leaving the ship to move with momentum only until they go to warp. When they drop out of warp and bring the nacelles down, power stops transferring to the nacelles and starts transferring to the impulse engines.

Voyager sux because the ship took way too much damage for the crew to repair in almost every episode.
ndyt 3 years ago
Okay, let's compare.
Voyager: Not made for heavy combat, smaller vessel used for exploration. Throw in they were cut off completely from Starfleet so they had to do repairs themselves.
Enterprise D: The flag ship of Starfleet, armed for heavy combat. Near constant contact with Starfleet; if they took damage they just had to zip into a space dock for repairs.
Saying the ship sucks purely because it took damage and had to be repaired is just stupid. You need to look at their situation as well.

Edd3107 3 years ago
That thing is a loud motor. The reason why the warp nacelles went up was to improve warp dynamics. The nacelles down was meant for better slower navigation since the impulse engines are on the pylons.

I tried getting into Star Trek I did get into Next Generation and Deep Space Nine. But they stopped viewing it for a while on BBC2 I didn't have sky then. I started watching things where people speaking That language and Get Married to it and other Bizare stuff. No offence to anyone But I hate Trekkies they tend to get TOO into it. I gess that stuff put me off it more But the new movie looks good might go to see it.
TOMMYFARRWALES 3 years ago
To be fair you have that same type of fanbase with anything.
People have gotten married dressed in Star Wars uniforms. Parents have given great thought into naming their children a Transformers character.
Trekkies only get a bad reputation because the media focuses on them more.
JTMitchell87 3 years ago
i am with you on what you just said!
i know that a Tv show in the uk called red dwarf have a big following ( i know this as i live in the uk )
i know that some of then fan of that show are just as mad if not more so then Trekkies are,
my self i am a fan of Transformers, powers rangers, red dwarf , star trek, harry potter, pokemon, yes pokemon, even digimon
so you never find to ppl i think that will like 100% the same stuff 70% the same but not 100%
so the media pic one to Hit out at

JTMitchell87 3 years ago
the reason for the moving nacelles is that in the trek story, some scientist found that exceding warp 5 in big starships was causing damage to something called subspace, and when voyager class was built, they found that having the nacelles move reduced this damage at higher speeds
out of universe tho, its definatly for the wow factor

I was just on AOL and they had an article on a new planet outside of our solar system that is 4 times bigger than Jupiter. Now mind you, Jupiter is 1,300 times bigger than Earth, so one could only imagine how big this new planet is to Earth. The discovery of new planets makes me wonder if there really is a "Cybertron", seriously. Call me crazy, but hey whatever. Anyway, this was a good review.

Voyager was a good series I watched it when I was in high school. Every Tuesday was Dark Angel and Wednesday night was Voyager followed by Special Unit 2. When seven of nine came into the cast I had a big smile across my face. It would be nice if they made the version of voyager with the extra armor plating the ship got in the last few episodes. I think the port nacells shifting upward is mostly for a wow factor maybe trying something new instead of the standard stationary look
