Product Description
Tholians are a crystalline species that once ruled the M81 Galaxy. When the Tholian Will was overthrown by the Seltorians, some small groups of Tholians fled to other galaxies. One small group of Tholians reached the Milky Way, where they took over the easternmost part of Klingon space, the part that originally bordered the Romulans. They called this the Tholian Holdfast. The Tholians (who considered carbon-based life to be lower than bacteria) enslaved Klingon colonies in the region and kept the Klingons at bay by their (at the time) superior technology. Their foes, the Seltorians, arrived in the Milky Way Galaxy later.
While the first pinwheel constructed (in the heat of battle) was of patrol corvettes, a pinwheel can be built out of three destroyers. In fact, a pinwheel could be built out of two patrol corvettes and a destroyer, or two destroyers and a patrol corvette. This is an artifact of the design; every destroyer is in fact an enlarged patrol corvette. While police cutters and war cruisers can form their own pinwheels, they cannot be mixed with patrol corvettes or destroyers to make pinwheels. This one-piece pinwheel is of three destroyers in a pinwheel formation.
The ship is available in a variety of materials. Ships are unpainted, use standard flight stands available from many sources, and, while designed for gaming, make fine display pieces.
