Drakh Mothership

[Spideredd]

Does anyone know haw big the new drakh mothership is?
I was always dissapointed by the old one, especially after it was described as one of the largest ships in space and it turned out to be smaller than a victory.
Don't get me wrong, I do like the old model, but it doesn't feel right that it can hold twelve raiders (or eight for that matter)

Cheers

hmm well the Victory is HUGE - should ships get much bigger than that! :?:

dont worry, the new one is a good size, they arent out yet as there is still a prob with the mold in usa, its also got to be hollowed out as it was toooo heavy, bout 1-2 ib i think

I believe it was supposed to be like 40km long. It could launch cruisers in the show.

 

[katadder]

it can in the game too

The old mothership is MUCH smaller than the Victory.
And it cost £5/$10 more.

But the victory had less volume, so needed less metal.

The minis are not neccesarily in scale to one another. Babylon 5 is actually smaller than most ships.

I hear there is a nice B5 model from revell that look more to "scale" (if there is such a thing) with the rest of the ships.

Still need to get me one of those

The thing is as someone has pointed out I think that you need to bear in mind the Victory's size is deceptiv eas it is very long and measured from wingtip to wingtip its very tall and very wide but if is a very spindly ship w2ith very little aside from the central shaft and thin wings. If you actually go by its MASS its not actually that huge at all. In fact Id wager its actually LESS massive than a Posseidon, an Octurion or a BinTak (just). Its certainly less massive than an Adira or a KaBinTak!

I hadn't considered that, I'll have to check that one out.
