F'nog Amarr Celestial Horizon Corp. Celestial Industrial Alliance	Posted - 2008.08.31 03:54:00 - [91] Originally by: Celiane Venture Originally by: Wildknight i will be waiting to see some size refrence pictures before i decide to buy. 125 bucks for a model means it should be of a good size and detail. bottom line, the initial pictures suck.... Yeah, perhaps CCP could hire Ron Jeremy to help provide a size refrence photo as to how long the sips are OMG, I haven't laughed that much in a while. Thank you. PS - I have no idea what you're talking about. Absolutely none. Not a clue. Who is Ron Jeremy? are his arms particularly long or something? Originally by: Kazuma Saruwatari F'nog for Amarr Emperor. Nuff said Originally by: Chribba Go F'nog! You're a hero! Not a Zero! /me bows

Bluddwolf Brutor tribe	Posted - 2008.08.31 05:58:00 - [93] I would buy one, if they made the Typhoone or Hurricane
Fitz Chivalry eXceed Inc. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.08.31 11:23:00 - [94] I dont object to the price of the models per se, as people say, compated to cmic character models they are comparable, what irritates me is the idea of shelling out almost $50 in postage charges. Q: Where are the vast majority of ccp customers? A: Europe Given that the models were 99% likely made andf inished in China why the hell are you shipping them from the US so the vast part of your customer base needs to pay insanely expensive shipping charges?
Rhatar Khurin Minmatar Native Freshfood	Posted - 2008.08.31 11:35:00 - [95] Edited by: Rhatar Khurin on 31/08/2008 11:35:54 If you can't afford them, don't buy them. Simple logic tbh. Although if you really want something similar checkout - Linkypops thread and make them out of paper. One of the imagOrigami apoces =
Gabriel Karade Nulli-Secundus	Posted - 2008.08.31 11:45:00 - [96] Originally by: Kale Kold "The four Tech I Battleships will sell for 124.99 USD each, and the four Faction Battleships are sold as a set for 499.96 USD." I'll tell you what, you can keep 'em. Example of Other high detail large resin models... Needless to say, my Megathron is on order -------------- Video - 'War-Machine'

(although they're a LOT bigger than the EVE ships and more detailed)
Kappas. Galaxy Punks	Posted - 2008.08.31 12:46:00 - [98] The eve shop is quite expensive in general anyway, if you look at the eve book, hardback version, it's about $40 there, or on amazon you can have it for about ú13 or around $26 __________________
Bish Ounen Gallente Omni-Core Freedom Fighters Ethereal Dawn	Posted - 2008.08.31 13:12:00 - [99] Originally by: Fitz Chivalry Given that the models were 99% likely made and finished in China why the hell are you shipping them from the US so the vast part of your customer base needs to pay insanely expensive shipping charges? Actually, I think they are being manufactured in the US and shipped via FedEx. Sainton Design is based out of the UK, but I don't think there are any companies that manufacture these models in the UK. I know that the US has several companies that specialize in these types of products. I suspect they chose one of those, rather than ship all the way from China. Perhaps someone from CCP can confirm that? Tactical Logistics using the last T1 Frigate hull!
Amuko Amarr Disturbance Inc.	Posted - 2008.08.31 13:41:00 - [100] I'd rather build and paint them myself, that's what makes 'models' fun for me.
davcin Caldari davcin Corp	Posted - 2008.09.01 14:53:00 - [101] Originally by: Fitz Chivalry Given that the models were 99% likely made and finished in China why the hell are you shipping them from the US so the vast part of your customer base needs to pay insanely expensive shipping charges? You are forgetting that the currency conversion from EUR to USD pays for the shipping...

To be honest, us players in the US have been getting shafted for ages on shipping for EVE stuff, it's about time we caught a break. -V

Personally UPS would have been a better choice, they're a lot cheaper and they can handle packages with care just as much as FedEx does. But it is CCPs choice to go with FedEx (although I assume they share warehouse space with WhiteWolf in the US, so it is probably WWs carrier of choice aswell)

Just ordered me a tempest. Ships also get some discount, so i think 1 ship cost me $106. If only 40K was so cheap... updating my army for the new edition cost me $900 in unpainted models.
Gnulpie Minmatar Miner Tech	Posted - 2008.09.01 18:14:00 - [106] Are there some high resolution pictures of those models available?
