Is it just me, or does the "head" of the new Cylon raider look a lot like this shuttle's cockpit? Zarko 16:14, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

More importantly, who cares. This page is for Star Trek related items. Plus the Romulan shuttle came before the show you are talking about. So they stole it from us. Preator 17 December 2007
Now why did you have to go and get all mean like that? Zarko never even suggested that the Romulan shuttle was inspired by the Cylon Raider. If citable proof could be found, it most definitely would be a worthy background note, as we have similar ones elsewhere. Especially consider the fact that a lot of people who worked on DS9 went over and now work on Battlestar Galactica, such as Allan Kroeker, David Weddle, Nana Visitor, Michael Taylor, Bradley Thompson, Rick Worthy, Michelle Forbes, Doug Drexler (he is a CG supervisor on Battlestar, andthus a possible source of bringing the inspiration), Gary Hutzel (visual effects), Jane Espenson, Robert Bonchune (digital effects), Gabriel Koerner (OK, not a DS9 worker, but a big Trek fan who now does CG models for Battlestar Galactica), an the guy running the Galactica series, Ronald D. Moore. I'd say there is a possibility here for Trek to have inspired Galactica, wouldn't you? --OuroborosCobra talk 14:56, 17 December 2007 (UTC)


Anyone else notice how is has the same/more armament than a D'deridex class warbird?
In terms of canon, we have no reason to believe that. In terms of the DS9 TM info, all of that stuff was terribly written. --OuroborosCobra talk 08:51, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
