I'm vaguely aware of various tiny cuts and edits throughout 'Star Fleet' as a whole, but I know this episode has one of the more major cuts - Shiro's disposal of the mon-mons was rather more graphic in the original 'X-Bomber' version. Obviously the dubbers must have decided that actually showing the little furballs getting blown to bits would be going a little too far!

Good shout! I had seen the whole series in Japanese but never noticed this change! I'll add a footnote to the article!
