Update Feb. '22: Changed the shape of the nacelles and added some more details to the model.

Fan designed Ferengi Ships usually tend to be just stretched and distorted D'Kora Class vessels or variations of it. This fan designed ship also is just a kitbash of a stretched main hull of a Ferengi Shuttle, oversized warp "mandibles" from the same ship and other parts. However, somehow this design has stuck with me. I always thought it would make for a good, mid-sized cargo ship. The vessel of a private Ferengi merchant. I have properly repaired the mesh, so that this print, unlike the versions offered here in other shops, doesn't show all those artifacts and bubbles that come from the Shapeways autocorrection. I also changed some features that i thought doesn't look right on the original model and added some details. For the size, i estimate a length of approx. 100m. At this size, the "tails" are 2.7m thick. Enough to fit a narrow deck into it where a Ferengi can stand upright (they are a rather small species). One of the changes i made to the model was enlarging the centerpiece underneath the ship and adding something that could serve as a ramp for loading cargo when the ship is landed. Further, i added an impulse engine, similar as on the canon Ferengi Shuttle including the spherical thing there. Speaking of the Ferengi Shuttle, the original D'Kora Class Marauder features an auxiliary "Drop-ship" on the underside, as it is called by Andrew Probert, the designer of the ship. And although this entire ship is about the size of that "Drop-ship", it also features a small Ferengi Pod (Ferengi Shuttle at 6m length) underneath the forward hull as some sort of Captain's Yacht or escape vehicle.I also added a row of windows to the front, in order to make the ship look bigger than a Shuttle and i changed the shape of the top center piece, that was just stretched too much in my opinion. At last, i gave the ship a few of the greebles from the D'Kora Class model.
At first, i didn't change the warp nacelles of the original design other than repairing the errors in the mesh. But after a wile, i thought those look just too big and are protruding too much downward for a ship that is supposed to be able to land on the ground. So i finally flattened them a little and added a visible landing gear, akin to the one seen on the Ferengi Transport from ENT. I also added some recessed shapes with some grating in it to the nacelles like the ones seen on the D'Kora Class Marauder, thus combining elements of every canon Ferengi ship in this design.

Maybe this could be Grand Nagus Zek's ship, the "Sepulo" that we never saw. It is also a good candidate for the ship from the "Battle of Maxia", that Picard destroyed with the famous Picard Maneuver.

On a side note, Galoob, the class name chosen by the original designer of this ship, was the name of the company that produced the Star Trek and Star Wars Micro Machines miniatures in the 1990's. Thus including a miniature of the D'Kora Class Marauder. In lack of any better name, i like to think that Galoob means something like greed in the Ferengi language ;-)
