If the cubes that had made it all the way to Earth had done so by assimilating their way there (and going via "slow" transwarp), their immense size compared to the Voyager cubes could be rationalized. <P>The obvious reason is so that in the VFX shots Voyager wouldn't look so puny as to be barely made out against the cubes.
