The D7 and K'tinga are proportioned differently so this is not a reasonable option.
A D7 with decals for the plating would be nice for the T&T option.
There is a slight difference, I agree.
But then again there is a slight difference between the original 33" Enterprise used for the original pilot and the production Enterprise, not just in the bridge dome and the nacelles but some other major hulls sections too - the most noticable being the "lip" on the underside of the saucer.
But no one seems to mind those differences in the TOS E 1/1000th(neither do I, for the record).
Guess one could always do a TON of sanding and make it a "smoothie!!!!"
Given the fact that we are being given a Refit first a K'Tinga as an adversary might make sense until we see a TOS E 1/350th.
If whoever is now in control of any future release decisions puts off contracting for a TOS E 1/350th past the next group they hire Thomas to do(assuming that John P's statement is accurate) they are insane! They are insane to not have it among the current contracted group of subjects as it is! Especially considering how easily John P could whip one up, seeing how much research info he went through for the 1/1000th!
Once again, PL marketing people got cute with perhaps even with their last gasp of what little control they had left!
Sad indeed...
