Enjoy... as usual, take them if you'd like, but woe upon those who don't give me credit. Thanks to The Red Admiral for giving me ideas about where to look.
Well - the question mark - to me doesn't look like that Talarian ship anymore - the perpendicular part was just a star. It looks like a saucer side on. Wasn't there a funny looking 'stepped' saucer seen in the BOBW scenes?
Or it could be that relatively smooth Talerian Plague ship/rehash as many other ships including a Vidiian ship in "Parallax".
The Batris upside down?? (another one - that is). I mean they've used two Mirandas together.
And the last two links. First link - top left corner. It looks like another angle to the Excelsior Prototype with the four oberth-esque nacelles. I thought it might be the same as the prototype in the final link. But that is at a different position and seems to have different nacelles? So that is that OTHER Excelsior study with no secondary hull and just two upper nacelles.

P.S. In the first link - that could be a Romulan battlecruiser.

Interesting... I do see a definite resemblance to the plague ship. And it did turn up, without the dome, as Etana Jol's Ktarian vessel in "The Game," produced immediately before "Unification," so that's a definite possibility.

Yeah, it has to be the Batris. I've taken a look at some other pics of it, and those four "thrusters" are pretty distinctive.

Now that I'm looking at it, that straight piece of debris that looks like the Talarian ship appeared at Wolf 359, as did that weird three nacelle-ish ship. I think the latter was identified by The Red Admiral as the Chekov...

Although we have a better-detailed pic of the mysterious lone saucer, it's unfortunately still not enough to tell where it came from. However, I think it's safe to say that it does not come from any of the four Excelsior study models.
I'm much more interested in knowing what those objects are in the extreme background, now that we can see them a bit better. I do know that there were a couple Ent-D's that didn't come out of the mold right. But some of that other stuff doesn't look like Star Trek-related items at all.

The three nacelled ship you outline is definitely a reappearance of the Springfield Class Chekov, first positively identified in the Wolf 359 analysis.
As Dukhat said, there does now seem to be a number of other very interesting objects in the far background, not discernable before. I believe I've identified some new objects already. I'll update the page soon...

Agreed... that alone was almost worth the price of the DVDs...
