Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: psydev on October 02, 2008, 02:47:44 am I can't find it right now but Babylon 5 had a transport ship that resembled quite closely an Earthling Cruiser.
Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: Alvarin on October 02, 2008, 10:23:38 am That's because the Cruiser is direct descendant of starship Enterprize of Star Treck . As are Ilwrath and VUX .
Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: SweetSassyMolassy on October 04, 2008, 12:30:06 am Really? The Ilwrath looks nothing like the Enterprise, the VUX barely.
Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: Elvish Pillager on October 04, 2008, 01:21:08 am They're based on other ships from Star Trek.
Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: JHGuitarFreak on October 09, 2008, 05:41:37 am Vux = Klingon D-7 Class
lwrath = Klingon Bird of Prey Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: Alvarin on October 09, 2008, 12:21:54 pm Ilwrath resembles Romulan Warbird bit more from the top side view .
Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: Koowluh on October 09, 2008, 03:29:14 pm Ferengi ship actually. Just the nose seems different. Google image "ferengi ship" first two results should be a dead give away.
Not that the Ferengi ship is that original; I mean, even the Yehat has a resemblance, if you chop off the Ferengi's nose. Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: Alvarin on October 09, 2008, 04:07:11 pm Yep , Ferengi it is :)
Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: Elerium on October 10, 2008, 12:39:23 pm Ur-Quan Kzer-Za= Battlestar Galactica
Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: AngusThermopyle on October 10, 2008, 03:40:28 pm I always thought the top-down, outline view of the Mycon resembled the Millennium Falcon -- minus the cockpit.
Title: Re: Star Control on TV Post by: psydev on October 11, 2008, 08:50:17 am The Yehat vaguely resembles a klingon bird of brey as well.
Oh, and there is a ship that resembles an Arilou in Babylon 5: http://archive.firstones.com/tp2b/league_vree.html http://www.b5tech.com/league/leagueships/xill/xill.html It has a little weapon underneath, like the Arilou. Oh, and you'll notice that the aliens also resemble the "greys". So... basically Arilou. Not sure if this qualifies as "rip-off" since greys in flying saucers already existed in the public mind before SC2.
