Do you guys ever sit back and look at the number of threads and posts of players requesting ANY access to getting ship models and consider calculating the tons of cash you are throwing away by no longer selling them in the EvE store?? |

I would probably pay for that ****. Especially if they were solid models. None of that hollow ****. "In the age of information, ignorance is a choice." |

The ship models they had for sale in the EVE store were certainly very cool, however I don't think they sold well. Mostly because they were very expensive and if I remember correctly, shipping costs were absolutely astronomical.
A lower cost version light enough to be shipped world wide economically might just fit the bill, particularly if an unpainted version was that inexpensive. A lot of people would like to paint them in their favorite color scheme.
Oh, if CCP would issue a color chart corresponding with their established corp color schemes, perhaps even with the equivalent color name from popular model paint lines...
Paladin paint by numbers kit anyone? To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

I also wouldn't rule out a hollow version that you glue/snap together... for those that like to trick out their special models with LED's or fiber optics.

I would pay for several ships, without any doubts.
Brutix, Manticore, Deimos, Kronos, Paladin, Raven Navy (I have the old CCP model for that), and so on.
I really do not know why CCP do not do it for itself, but since CCP stop it, I will happy buy it from you.
If you want to proceed with that intent, fell free to contact me and we can make an arrangement.
Moreover, yes, I want it already painted :)
Thank you.

Do not make them plastic! They need to be molded out of something other than cheap ****..
How expensive were the ones they were selling? I don't know the logistics or anything but I couldn't see each model being more than $50 bucks if done right and depending on the size. (if they were around this price how didn't they sell?!) I'd love to collect some ships and have them sitting on my shelves and desk! |

Hard plastic , the stuff they used to make the real models, is thick and as heavy as metal, feels kinda like it in a way too. |

The hard plastic CCP used at the old models that was selled at eve-store are good ones. I have a Raven Navy model witch are nice. A bit fragile ate the spike and antennas but still very good.
Looking at it, remember me that a stand / pedestal to put and display it is also a nice addition if possible. There are some picture around that show it, just google for it.
Also, thank you again.

please be at ease. the plastics are not by at any means fragile. great example here: have you ever stepped on a lego? it hurtsd your foot but doesnt break the lego. legs are made out of abs plastic. these two choices are not the only one as they are researching into more materials. which I hope to get my hand on some time soon. |

Personally, I kinda want a Tempest model made of Resin. Although some thin parts might be problematic for it though. |

Pretty much this, the shipping was the main issue for most people.
We know how much people loved the battleship models we used to have, and have considered various options, however right now we're not in a position to offer anything. Maybe in future we'll see what happens

I want:
1) A metal Maelstrom. Because it's ~vertical~ and with those blades I can use it as self defense weapon
2) A Nidhoggur. Because it's so utterly useless in game (BPCs sold for < 10M!!!!) that it's not worth ever buying and much less undocking with one.
However it'd be worth having one to put on the bookcase, the only PvP risk would be my -10 sec gank kitten. Auditing | Collateral holding and insurance | Consulting | PLEX for Good Charity
