Star Trek: The Motion Picture Blueprints were a collection of in-universe diagrams and schematics of starships and vehicles that appeared in TOS movie: The Motion Picture. Produced by David Kimble, 14 folded sheets were inserted within a plastic pouch, similar to the Star Trek Blueprints released in 1975. Andrew Probert "authenticated" the ship exteriors, Lee Cole the main bridge diagrams, and all were "approved" by Gene Roddenberry. The package was published by Pocket Books imprint Wallaby Books.

Background[]
- This was the only source to cite that a cloaking device was standard issue aboard the refit Enterprise and the Vulcan shuttle.
- While the dimensions of the Enterprise were consistent with later sources, the K't'inga-class was significantly smaller. It was reportedly 214.3 meters long here, whereas the 24th century's DS9 reference: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual said it was 350 meters long. In this case differing specs could be rationalized as a result of limited Starfleet Intelligence about the new class in 2273 or variations in manufacturing over the decades.
- A typo gave the travel pod a length of 214.3 meters, the same length as the battlecruiser.
- As K't'inga-class nomenclature first appeared in Gene Roddenberry's novelization of The Motion Picture, here it was referred to as the Drell-4 class.
