No, you can't put both in your shopping cart and get both for $5... but I'm a Babylon 5 freak, and I'll proudly display the poster... not sure about the mouse pad, my Mouse Bungee Pro is pretty good.

Cool Find... I'm a huge B5 fan and was estatic when i heard about the development of this game... now i'm bummed that they're not making it. The artwork looked awesome.
But at least i'll have a cool poster. <*>

I ordered a Mousepad and Watch a week ago, and they arrived on Saturday...

Nice looking 3D Mousepad, and I'm sure my son will enjoy the watch...it's not some cheapo plastic one, but made of metal...

I am a nutcase for B-5- I am thrilled that the Sci-Fi channel is showing the series in widescreen. I remember an interview with JMS saying he produced the series in 2 versions, hoping someday it would be shown in the widescreen format.
The storyline just kept getting so damn good: it was a show that always had excellent dialog ( stuff you would remember later on)like &quot;what do you want, Vir, you moon- faced assasin of joy&quot;.

Out of curiosity, how much were you charged Smeeba? I ordered the same, but was only charged $5.47 instead of $7.

B5 was sweet but didn't anyone else notice no encryption on the page where you enter your visa number.

Make sure you enter the secure page, but even then it is only 40 bit encryption.

Best scifi TV series ever, IMO.

Breathtaking moments:
Sheridan's rescue by newly unveiled Kosh after terrorist plants bomb
Sheridan going to Shadow homeworld--Melissa Gilbert, the guy that looked like Capt. Kangaroo (creepy!), atomic blast of domed city, etc.
final episode
devastating bombing of Centauri homeworld
unveiling of Sinclair/Valen (probably my favorite)
Battle of the Line
any of the incredible space battles
the different architectures of the spaceships
Lannier's betrayal--and redemption
seeing a spider vessel unearthed by archeologists
the way the Shadows are slowly unveiled over many, many episodes
death of Centauri emperor (the aged one)

Anybody else care to reminisce?

I thought JMS did a great job of turning around Londo from a quasi- benevolent seemingly haughty, but harmless character, to a sad, dark character capable of anything, and G'Kar, going from a being controlled seemingly only by his emotions, and bloodlust for the death of all things Centauri, to a religious icon with a large devoted following, interested in only the healing of his fellow peoples :)
I also loved Vir being the one who ends up actually stabbing the Head of the Centari Republic.

resinboy, I agree, the arc for each of the characters was just amazing. For the 3 characters you mention, Andreas Katsulas (aka the &quot;1-armed man&quot; in The Fugitive!), Peter Jurasik, and Stephen Furst are outstanding actors.

7PM EST M-F widescreen ohhh yeahhh
Uncouth; Bester was great- how about the time he met Garabaldi on the way back from Mars, and &quot;released&quot; his hold on him,or the scene when Bester shows up on the station, and Garabaldi tries to kill him, and he can't pull the trigger :)
Also, yeah, Mr Morden was also a great character. Interestingly, he was in the first couple of episodes as one of the people in C and C.

Finality,
The order frame was encrypted, but that inside an otherwise normal page. I clicked on the link marked &quot;view this page witout frames&quot; and it came up as an encrypted https page... only after that did I put in my CC info!
I'm looking forward to my watch and poster... thanx for the pointer Odeen!

My favorite B5 scene? Vir, looking up at Morden's head on a pike!

Most memorable moment.....every Darn episode man. It puts any other series to shame especially Star Krak. It all had to do with the great character developement that will probably never happen on another sci-fi series for a while. Though I still watch ST every once and a while....Seven....of....9? :)
