[QUOTE]Originally posted by The_Tom: [QB] The Warbird was the original length quagmire, back from the days when everyone thought the only [i]Defiant[/i] was Constitution-class. Probert himself has given the length at which he designed the ship, which is in the region of 1200m long. Indeed, in the head-to-head shot from "TNZ" suggests just that. However, come "Contagion", the idea was to make the Warbird and Galaxy somewhat matched. Either oblivious to or intentionally ignoring the previous length, the VFX guys portrayed the Warbird as only slightly larger than the Galaxy. The same stock footage of the WB to the upper right and the E-D to the lower left with different backgrounds has been reused throughout TNG since then, and while a bit of distortion may come into play, the WB is clearly under a kilometer. In "Tin Man" we see a Warbird very close to the E-D on two occasions... one firing on it from behind and passing over it, and the other getting tossed by Tin Man. It is without a doubt under 800 m here. In "The Die is Cast" we see Warbirds and Keldons next to one another. Whatever about the length of the Cardie ships being inconsistent, the Warbirds are again not in the 1200m range. [/QB][/QUOTE]
