Am I the only one slightly disturbed by the very strong implication that there WILL be a major redesign for the movie?
To anyone who has seen the teaser trailer, this should not be a surprise at all. All we have seen of the "revamped" Enterprise is below:
Based on the textured pattern on the saucer (known as 'aztecing'), the bridge module, hull lettering and the sensor underneath? We can deduce that the saucer of the ship is now more close in look to the refit, than what was seen in TOS. Likely, to make the refit that occured prior to The Motion Picture more believable.
The spinning Bussard ramscoops at the front of the nacelles are functionally TOS, but seem to blend into the nacelle more cleanly, with less ornament surrounding them. The dorsal "radiator fins" at the rear of each warp nacelle are definately more organic and "fluid" than the ones we saw in TOS, so the nacelles have been updated.
All we really need to see now is the secondary hull. Has the fantail and hangar door changed? Is the deflector dish of the metallic "satellite TV" TOS variety, or more of the glowing headlight effect seen in the films.. or a hybrid of both? I feel the reveal of the revamped Enterprise is the next biggest event forthcoming.

Comic Con 2008 Reveals New U.S.S. Enterprise Design?
Note that these "new designs" have airscrews (propellers) embedded in their saucer section, and one has a dorsal fin (see photo enlargement below).
Now that is kitsch, JJ! ;-)
These models aren't replicas, they're semblance toys for play in the yard.
