It may seem hyperbolic, but the detail improvements on the 10″ Voyager really are the standout feature of this larger-scale release. While some of Eaglemoss’ other XL editions have been basically just enlarged releases of their earlier starships - though the Enterprise-D offered color corrections and the Enterprise-E did offer some detail improvement - the Voyager model offers much clearer structural components and a much greater range of surface detailing that the original Voyager ship looks like a toy compared to this new version. Nearly four times as large as Eaglemoss’ original Voyager model first released four years ago, the new XL Voyager is a step up in weight and dimension, but is probably the best implementation of the scaled-up releases the company has produced to date. Overall, good but way too inconsistent.Eaglemoss’ newest entry in their XL Starships Collection fleet is here, and their large-scale 10″ USS Voyager is in nearly every sense a phenomenal improvement over their first-year Intrepid-class release from 2013. It's really a shame, though, as shows about the afterlife and religion are interesting and I did enjoy this aspect of the program. It's naturally very confusing and now we have the Captain thinking about sending this lady back to her planet once they locate it-but wouldn't that also violate the much-beloved Prime Directive?! So, to really enjoy this one you need to accept that Voyager forgot the Prime Directive-which is even harder since this show is so ethically bound and drips in the Prime Directive in other episodes. But this ends up scaring the daylights out of the lady as she expected to be on her planet's version of Heaven and the planet below isn't even where she was born. After all, he can cure her illness easily. When another body is transported to the asteroid and bodies start appearing on the ship because it is in close proximity, the Doctor decides to revive one of these recently dead bodies. In fact, this is a serious plot problem because he behaved like he'd never heard of the Prime Directive. This part annoyed me because EVERYONE at Starfleet is drilled with the notion NOT to contaminate other planets-yet dumb 'ol Harry begins talking rather freely to these people-too freely. This is because when he tries to transport back to the ship, some weird space vacuole appears and transports him back to the planet which has sent their dead to the asteroid! He's the first person to return from the dead as far as these people are concerned-and this can cause havoc for these people and their religious beliefs. He's right.too bad Harry Kim is an idiot. Chakotay insists that the team members do not touch or disturb the corpses in any way-as it would be disrespectful and violate the Prime Directive. Once there, however, they find dead bodies everywhere-bodies which were sent there by some unknown people. When the show begins, an away team beams to an asteroid within the rings of a planet below. I liked it on balance but felt like the writer didn't quite hit the mark. "Emanations" is a very good but very inconsistent episode of "Star Trek: Voyager".
