I would get one or two for sure. Especially some of the cap ships. I think an Avatar or Nyx would look pretty fricken sweet.

The Chinese also seem to already have the EVE Wiki that we were promised a billion years ago.
But damn, those models (well, the Megathron that I could see because none of the others loaded) looked ****ing epic. Is anyone able to grab all those images and reupload them somewhere else?

Edited by: Yuko Agura on 12/08/2008 23:25:29 I would collect them all.... CCP, there is a need and a want here. When are you going to step in and tell us that they are on the way?
Here is the LINK to the paper models that are out there.

Yeah, I too would prefer they were some kind of metal die-cast, but I'll take whatever nice alternative they're willing to go with at this point (as long as it isn't crap, but I trust CCP wouldn't produce such a thing).

Yes, please sign me up the for the official model launch. I am waiting in the line on the left (or right) in the on-line store.
Need to get your "cart" fixed to allow me to buy more stuff at once too.

Come on CCP (or White Wolf whatever) make these available, even if it's just one ship (BS?) from each race.
Rabble until it's so!

I'd pay $60 for a plastic one providing it was decent scale, say, that 'thron is about 15 inches long. OH and it was a KIT. I wanna BUILD it myself. Failing that Prebuild is okay I guess. Hell, if it was a kit i'd pay $100. One Hundred of my hard earned dollars for a piece of plastic.
As for metal, thats hard to get a decent finish on, for a foot long metal model of a Machariel i'd guess the start up costs of that would make its initial price push more than $200.
Safe to say...
GIEF, WANT, KTHX PLZ etc. No doubt at least 1 in 3 people would buy a model ship from EVE, providing the Iconic ships featured and every now and then CCP released a new model.
Every carebear flies a Raven, Every PVP'er has to have had a Thorax, Every Amarr worth his gold has had an Apoc. The classic Rifter design would sell like a house on fire.
Start with those 4, slowly bring out some others. Make the damn things SCALED and bam.
Thats a lot of additional revenue for CCP right there.

There is already this EVE Wiki, or do you mean a wiki run by CCP themselves?
Anyways you can 3D print the models yourself, but like said before, that will probaly mean violation of copyrights. Don't think CCP will mass produce them because the 'market' for it is to small imo.

Thats exactly the point on where i¦m not sure about it. I mean CCP ain¦t dumb, eh? We should probably know that, as we¦re playing their game. So most likely they¦ll have calculated the potential losses or profits of this endeavour an come to no satisfying conclusion. I can imagine that quite well, at least the !potential! customerbase would be around 300k people, what isn¦t really that much. Besides all that businessshit: I¦d buy 1-3 myself , no doubt about it. Even if they¦d be in up 100/150 buck segment.

60 bucks is likely what you would pay for a good rendition of a plastic model.
How do I know? I collect other models of all sorts (wife calls it junk, and toys, i call them all models)
For metal, the prices would be outrageously high, so plastic and rubberized plastics would likely be what they are made from.
Think Tod McFarlane Linkage.
These ranged in price from 25 bucks up to 60 bucks for the rare ones, and were 12-15inches in most cases.
For the larger ones, your looking in the 100 dollar price range. The materials are good, and the look and feel ends up being nice if set in a proper setting, or just displayed in a case (yes, im a rampant ******ed geek about this models of most things)

Given the amount of rabid drooling for these models there seems to be a good bit of interest in them. CCP could someone pls give a yay or nay on the possibility? PUHLEEEESE??
