18" Normandy SR-2 Ship Replica

I spotted this earlier, meant to post it.

Like others have said it's expensive and import duty will be a bitch.....I'll wait to see if forbidden planet get it in.

I'm passing on this one. It's cool, I suppose. It's just not for me.

Get the wee version from 365games. Its lovely.http://www.365games.co.uk/video-game...ighter-replica

They also do a small version of the dead space plasma cutter. Out of stock on that one sorry.

Think most are taking a pass on this one, but I saw an ad today for a much better price if anyone is interested -- and payment is not taken until it ships. If you're still within 2 weeks of placing an order, this could save you a nice chunk of change. Still not sure about this, even at this price though...

For the record, the 2 week cancellation is intended to be more bark than bite. We say that to encourage people to mean it when they order, but we're flexible about giving people their full amount back. I'm not saying we won't keep the 20% ever, but if you ask really nicely, or are a little past the 2 weeks, or have a good story we'll usually work with you about it....

Hi Ryan.

Is this going to be exclusively available from Bioware store, or is there going to be any retailers selling this in the UK? Also, is it only going to be shipped from your US warehouse? Would be nice if it was being shipped from somewhere closer to home to hopefully avoid customs fees and expensive postage costs. lol

Thanks!

Not exclusive. Dark Horse produced these on their own (so we have no control over pricing or design, etc). We work with them a lot, and we have the benefit of being the official store, so we get first crack usually, and they give us more of however many are produced than anywhere else is able to get, but they'll definitely be available outside of just us.

Will only be shipped from the US as it currently stands, but September is a while away yet, so that _could_ change. We're actually getting ready to close our UK distribution very soon and try to regroup, but I don't know where we'll be by the time these things ship, so while it's possible we could have something nicer in place I wouldn't count on it....

Forbidden Planet will probably have them, and I completely understand why you'd want to get it from them instead of us.

Ah fair enough! The "Only at Bioware Store" threw me off a little. XD I ad a feeling that Dark Horse were doing these, like they did the smaller ones, but thought I would throw the question out there.

I'll keep an eye out for Forbidden Planet listing them. They also have the the Sovereign Reaper available which works out to be significantly cheaper than importing, so would be more beneficial for me to order from them. If not I might be able to order one through a local independent retailer from Diamond Distribution.

Anyway, thanks for your response and for keeping us all updated.

We've been re-using that little strip because I like the scripty font, but you're right, we probably shouldn't have put that on there. We had the exclusive for a little while, so the day it was posted it was true, but I can see now how it's a little misleading and doesn't hold up over time....

Just for everyone's knowledge: is your pricing always final or is there a chance that you'll match a competitor on non-exclusive items?
