The Hyperion is in front of the Vree saucer, similarly the Sharlin is behind the Primus - making them much, much bigger.
Ah, hadn't noticed that the conning tower on the hyperion wasn't occluded. In that case yes, it is way out of established scale. Inriguing...
The primus and G'quan are completely out with each other, too.

is that a chronos?

It's an Olympus - you probably won't see any AoG/Mongoose designed ships in B5 ever. It's very rare that something from ancilliary material gets added into the primary Canon like that.
not that one, the one that is superimposed in front of the station.

I remember in one of the epipsodes leading up to the final clash with Pres. Clark there was a shot of a Sharlin gliding behind B5 and you could see that the Sharlin was something like 1/3 - 1/2 the length of the station; and B5 was supposed to be something like 5 miles long!
I think the "chronos" is a earth shuttle, pretty much from the front.
But thats me......
And i think that the pic is a simple "drawn" together thingy. Or a "copy&paste" together. The Primus looks more fuzzy then the Sharlin, like someone used a Primus from a background shot, and supersized it.....

Would be neat to see a Chronos on screen...Apollo, etc. A Nike!

That's actually a good point...
katadder said:altho think abraxas should remove the picture as the link is fine, but at the bottom of the pics it does ask that they are not posted anywhere else due to being JMS personal property.
My bad...
Will remove...
Don't sue me JMS...
If the "Presidential Cruiser" is nothing more than a bigger Sharlin... than I will lose all interest immediately. I don't think that is the case, however. I DO think it is a bunch of images slapped together with no real thought into the scaling.
It is just a publicity shot, so may not reflect (accuratly) the changes they are making.

Oh yeah, I see it now, I thought it was one of the spars that links the large cylinder to the smaller one at first. I'd vote for shuttle too.
SPOILER: If you have NOT seen the end of Babylon 5, please, please, please do not watch this. It will ruin the whole experience.

Fans of Michael Caine will get the last part... and sorry it's there, but this was the best vid I could find.

Yeah I never understood that...

I never quite got why B5 was a navigation hazard, it was thew only thing of note in the whole system, so they wouldn't be any point of going there once it had ceased operation...
Plus surely blowing it into millions of little pieces will actually create a much bigger navigation hazard, at least you can see a bloody great space station...

Jhary said:there are only two gates and one Planet in this system. I thought that they blown the station of because the raisers are still activ and coud use it.
Which is the reason I figured.
Raiders can't make a whole lot of use out of random bits of metal... but an assembled Babylon 5? Yeah, that could be useful to them.
As a navigational hazard... I was never very happy with that excuse. A potential Raider base; yes. A navigational hazard? Unlikely.
I would think peices of the station moving away from that station was a bigger navigational hazard than a station anchored to a planet... but that is just me.

Plus, is there really one switch which controls all the power on the station? And if so why is it that close to the docking bay?...
