Iron Sky, the clue is in the picture

Ah, thankyou, I didn't notice that, was too enthralled with the image I guess!!



Editted to add, it's not released yet, so I can't rush off to Amazon and order it! LOL

Check out this thread for Iron Sky and links to trailers on YouTube. Due out early next year.

LOL and the series itself was actually quite dark.An updated version would be much better than something like V.

It was originally aired at tea time back in 1969, I was 7, but then moved to a late night slot. Even watching it now, the plots are very serious and involve everything from extra-marital affairs to drugs.

The one that had Straker trying to kill Commander Paul Foster in order to test his allegiance had me in tears when I was little. I was a sensitive soul.

I 'inherited' one of them from big bro. Along with Joe 90's ship.

Love that comparison chart, there is another out there which is slightly different, has the ship from Lexx on it?

[AshVX220]

Thanks for the link Croyde, I'll check out the vids at home (youtube is filtered in the office).

As for the comparison chart, I think it's brilliant and confirms why the Super Star Destroyer is my favourite.

I figured out why the new 'V' failed, I'm watching the old one again at the moment, the new one, they're completely missed the overall point of the original, the occupation by a hostile force. The don't actually know what the fk the new one's supposed to be about.

The Star Wars ships are pretty hard to beat, especially the Star Destroyers and 'The Avenger' super star destroyer.

I would give a notable mention to the shadow ships from Babylon 5

^remember thinking those transport ships in Avatar were very similar to the Aliens drop ship...

Hardly surprising since the influence of Aliens ran the whole way through.

Also loving The Liberator & the Eagles from Space 1999.

Enterprise D from STTNG. Bonus points for anyone who can identify the episode

[EDLT]

Well that looks like a borg tractor beam, it could be any of the episodes they were in.
