Summary 00252: theend, theends: Right at the start of a game, the mothership flickers for a brief moment.
Description Right at the start of a game, the mothership flickers for a brief moment.
After that there's more flickering when the shields scroll into view.

Follow-up by Tafoid in 0.115u3: theends (The End - Stern) also exhibits this bug... It might be a bug in the original game.

Cannot reproduce it testing on 0124u1 using the new and extremely exact galaxian driver.

Unless there is some proof the original PCB acts different, this report should be closed.

I still see the flickering/fluttering of the ship when the game starts, but I'll mark this as a possible until PCB confirmation comes.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is original. They are clearing the tilemap and the ship is part of the tilemap. Confirmation that it is visible on the PCB would be useful.
