    Kind of curious what McCoy’s badge/medal is opposite to his Terran Emblem :smile:

    A lot of the original stories have been retconed. The costume department made stuff often and people filled in specific meanings later. When I say retconed I mean the story changes over time and between people. I don't believe they were defined at all before going to costumes. I think Sulu's badge/medal had something to do with Vietnamese military. I think a lot of the images the department used were intended to call to historical dictatorships and such. I don't remember specificly what McCoy's was for. But it is a metal of achievement. I would suspect based on the relevance of Sulu's costume that McCoy's somehow is drawn from someone who went beyond ethics as a doctor. Or some one who advocated for such.

    Exceptional artwork again. Well done TP!

    +1 McCoy’s art is superb! If he has anything other than Med/Sci/Sec or Med/Sec/Sci I will be surprised and disappointed lol

    I was thinking Med/Eng/something. Although not in this scene (thanks @DScottHewitt), he does ultimately help Scotty with the engineering work needed to return to the prime universe.

    I forgot the helping Scotty thing, too. I watched it last night to find that scene of him holding the glass {which came up early} and finished the episode.

    I still can't believe 1960s censors passed that one.......

    Good point! however i’m guessing it’ll be the ‘real’ Mirror Bones, not prime Bones pretending to be Mirror Bones. (every mirror character is like that except mirror Burnham)

    Burnham has ‘Starfleet, Federation, and Undercover Operative’ among others and Killy actually has ‘Terran Empire, Brutal’ Etc. 🖖

    The Bones soundclip "I'm a doctor, not an engineer" is from "Mirror, Mirror"......

    We do see both, in the episode. Now, I'll have to watch again. 🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱

    Do we ever see Mirror Bones in Mirror clothes? Or just the Prime uniform that the Mirror crew materialized in?

  • Do we ever see Mirror Bones in Mirror clothes? Or just the Prime uniform that the Mirror crew materialized in?

    I believe we only see the real Mirror Kirk, McCoy, Uhura and Scotty in the brig in Prime uniforms. I also believe that only Kirk gets any dialogue, when he attempts to bribe the guards.

    Mirror McCoy looks to be Mirror McCoy from the Traits and descriptor.......

    Adira Tal is awesome with a voyage score of 3512. I wish they had more traits but otherwise awesome crew TP.

    They also have great artwork. And clearly from a specific episode!!!!!

    Yeah I like when it is a unique card from a specific episode. Just wish it was from the next episode so Adira could have more traits. Still awesome crew though. Hope I get some good legendaries in the mega wrap up packs.

  • Funny how Bones’ write up mentions interrogation but he doesn’t have the ‘Interrogator’ trait....

    Is that with or without bonuses? I had a sheet I always referenced, but it has not been updated, and I think others are quoting a different sheet, so I can't keep up. Perhaps someone has a good link? On the sheet I was using, 3500 is a very low total.

    3512 without bonuses which is extremely good. Gonna be a top 25 voyager I believe. Determined Paris is 3515 without bonuses and ranked 16th overall. As everyone has different levels of starbase, collections completed, and future bonuses that occur down the road, I think it is wisest to rank the crew before bonuses.

    Thank you. I appreciate that. Do you have a link to the page you use? I like to have a good way to compare.
  • Determining skills for Adira must be tricky. She's first encountered as a SEC officer, she's currently in ENG, her last two hosts were an admiral (CMD) and an artist (DIP), who's abilities have occasionally been very close to her surface. And this doesn't even factor in the shifts characters have in particular situations/episodes.

    I'm hoping to get a SR Gray Tal and maybe a rare Senna Tal in the future.

    Cannot find anything from TOS, but these are screenshots someone took of the episode of "After Trek", or whatever it is called. Wil Wheaton's show that talks about Disco. "Official", I guess. Had prop people and such from the show naming the medals......

    There is some discussion of why there are two distinctly different "Master of Poisons" medals. My first theory is maybe the one next to the kill badges is for Captains who took command by poison, such as Kirk and Killy......

    I’m a bit puzzled why mirror McCoy is event crew but all the shuttle missions are about (mirror?) Culber.

    We find Culber by the end of the event, maybe is seen in the write up. I think he’s in next week’s event.
  • W.W. CarlisleW.W. Carlisle ✭✭✭✭✭
    I think there was a mix up of hilarious proportions. Remember regular Culber was a LTO on Tuesday too. I had wondered about that and now...it makes sense as a compounded mistake.
