2000 dollars?!
I'm pretty sure I speak out for everyone when I say, "Are you ******* kidding me?!"
I was prepared to spend maybe 400-600 at the max. But 2000?! These guys need a hard dose of a reality. |

I mean a smart business plan; because lets face it. NOT many people know about EVE! Its still secluded. Rant aside
Business Plan; they should have divided it into 3 types. Where you got decent quality, higher quality, and extreme.
Regular: 200-300 dollar price range. Decently affordable for those who love a nyx.
Higher Quality: 500-600 dollar price. With added features etc.
Extreme: *their stupid price or hopefully lower* add in signatures, etc etc to make it special. |

While it seems like a lot, we are talking about basically floating novelty art work that probably took quite an investment to create.
I'm just saying it is a stupid business model - lets face it. In the business world you gotta know who your consumer's and target audience are.
Now, lets look at EvE Online. Which HAS been on the decline for the past year. It has also low visibility. You go to a bar, and ask do yo know EvE Online? They'll look at you as if you are crazy.
Their target audience? People that are in their 20's and 30's. People with families. God knows, if I buy this and the missus hears it, they'll have my throat and head on a silver platter. Not only that, but the price is insulting.
Smart plan: Make three different types. One regular quality, one "higher" quality, and the third? Go all out bonkers on that. |

Oh okay, i had my official panic button and dreams crushed button set.
I don't suppose you could make the suggestion of the "different nyx package deal?"
Thanks for the announcement CCP Falcon.

Just in from reddit.
I hope this is the placeholder still.
Otherwise; #NoPoors Allowed.

It's the fact that they're licensing artworks instead of stuff affordable to their hundreds of thousands of players from half hundred countries in the world... some very away from the US both geographically and in purchasing power. It's their IP, if they want to license it for 500 x 500 $ instead of 50,000 x 5 $ that's their decission to make. And ours is to judge whether that is approachable or arrogant. There is no necessary exclusivity in licensing an IP at 5$, $50 0r $500. Nor is it wrong to cater to that $500 crowd should they exist. Not every product need be intended for every person who plays the game. Some have no interest in physical goods at any price point, but that doesn't translate to the idea that there should be no physical goods. Many IP's can and do produce goods with a wide range of price points, none more "arrogant" than any other.
Its alright, when there's a will there is a way.
Hello China.

This is clearly (as with the rifter) not about real Iceland ISK. This was about letting fans get hold of models which has been problematic in the past. Also what is a super/titan worth if i use PLEX?
Seriously, making your own model this size, assuming free labor, would quickly get almost as expensive. Assuming same quality and finish.
In fact i would be in the market but i am shifting from EU to NZ soon. So getting rid of things rather than buying them right now.
This thing is boss. Would love a naglfar! made out of iron and naturally rusted. Ohh... i have a great time waster project when i get back to NZ.
Well i mean, you know that you have HIGH customer demand because the NYX is beautiful.
Why not, make 2 other maybe smaller - less detail models to supply that demand. Then construct a few of those "grand" types for those who REALLY love EVE |
