Well, the Ferengi Marauder IMHO is a cool ship. In contrast to the Jem'Hadar Bug which looks like a fallen off hubcap!

I guess you were not talking to me as I haven't got the slightest clue WTF you are talking about...

Ah, but observe how carefully composited the shot is, which means there's probably a huge mess sneakily hidden from view on the far sides of his desk. B)

I want to know what's that cylinder on the key-ring. Dog whistle? Crackpipe?

Hey, has anyone ordered anything from that site Mark posted a link to? I'm going to order three assortments from them in the next couple of weeks ... hopefully I'll get one o' each and some extras to sell on eBay.

My firends and I order from there regularly, and I think we've only ever had one problem in years of doing so. Recently a friend bought a box of ten Macross mini-figures where there were five individual figures, and ended up having two of each kind. Getting a box will almost certainly net you a full set plus extras.
Another friend went to Japan last month and found a batch of very similar mini models, and brought back a set of the J'H Attack Ship, Defiant, Nebula, and BoP. In Japan some people collect these things like mad, and the extras are often sold as mostly complete sets in comic shops and such, where my friend found his set.

Er, what? I totally missed all those comments about my desktop. Actually, I had cleaned up that day, but only because my wife is the messy one. And that cylinder on the keychain is a laser-pointer, it's for playing with the cats, they go mad chasing the little red dot that they can never catch! There's now an almost Pavlovian reaction with Dizzy, whenever she hears the keychain jingle she automatically looks at the floor to see if the dot will appear. . . 8)
You pay 16.53 USD/13.05 Euros for what? 1 Model? One set? Around 16 Dollars for ONE small ship seems rather expensive. For twice the amount I get an AMT 1400th scale Star Trek kit.
Or have I got the system wrong? And what do you mean when talking about "buying a box"?
And does anyone know whether these models will also be available in Europe?
Thanx for the info.

Austin ... it's $16.53 for a SET of SIX. As stated somewhat clearly ... the models are available ONLY in Japan, but you can order them from "Hobby Link Japan" and have 'em sent to you.
"Buying a box" ... they come in a "box" of six ships. They're randomly packaged - you can't specifiy what ships you want, and the individual boxes don't specify what ship is in it. It's sort of like trading baseball cards from gum sets ... you don't know who you've got until you open it up.
