Show Average Fun Rating:  Early versions of the backglass showed the Enterprise crew dressed in the uniforms from the TV series. To promote the Hollywood movie that was coming out at the same time as this game, the backglass art was changed early in the production run to show them dressed in single-color clothing. In addition, two playfield plastics were changed to feature the bald-headed woman from this first movie. These Early Production "TV version" backglasses have a large white trademark symbol (TM) after the name. Artist Kevin O'Connor's signature is also shown in white. The modified "movie version" glass has a smaller TM in a black color, the artist's name is shown in red, and in the lower right corner is additional license and trademark text not found on the TV version. Also pictured in this listing is a third version of backglass made by Bally but did not appear on any game. It is identical to the movie version except it has no TM after the name. Also, it has no adhesive "Credit" sticker in the credit window. It was one of approximately 25-30 glasses that were obtained many years ago from a man who owned a warehouse that was used by Bally. We believe these glasses were considered flawed for lack of the trademark symbol and were set aside by Bally, not to be used on any machine. According to artist Kevin O'Connor, the original backglass art had the character on the left shooting a humanoid, but that had to be changed to a ball of energy due to demands by the show's producers that no one be shown being killed. The humanoid can be seen on the original backglass artwork shown in the book Pinball Art.
