BSG Cylon Raider up for pre-order

[tnaig001]

Will be interesting to see how this all turns out (as someone that has the Serenity replica on order).

So even tho it was an ebay order, it was still a new, never opened or displayed item? Basically they were just a reseller, which in this case is really no different then if you did purchase from Sideshow.

As such, that means it left QMx looking like that, which sounds very strange, since like Dave said, they seem to be a real stickler for quality, especially on the replica lines.

It came sealed as far as i can tell. However, based on the edition number, mine is below 50, the rep at Qmx said mine was a very early run.

They checked the ebayer and said he was not their direct reseller. I believe they are tracing the sale route as of now.

This piece costs more than my SS 1:1 bust and i really wanted a USA paint job and not the el-china ones.

Here's crossing my fingers and toes that something can be done.

Below 50, that is an early one, since for these they usually number them in the order in which they are built.

If it was a direct QMx purchase it would be a no brainier, with luck it will still work out via an ebay purchase.

Still, will be interesting to see how it all turns out.

I was pretty much late to the party (playing catch up ain't no fun) so the raider was already sold out as far as I could tell Ebay was the only option left.

Out of interest, any updates?

 

[tnaig001]

ok. lastest update can be summed up in one word, awesome!

Qmx has customer service that goes over and beyond.

They have asked me to send the raider to the FX company. They will be refinishing the raider at NO CHARGE.

I'll have to pay for shipping both ways but for them to help me when they didn't have to is already more than I can ask.

I'll definitely recommend Qmx to anyone who is thinking about whether they should get one or not

That's great news tnaig, I thought that QMx would help you out, on these replica's, the last thing they want are poor quality ones out there.

So considering it was a 3rd party purchase over ebay, your going to end up with a perfect model.

Which is all good, as my Serenity replica gets closer to being built.

thanks m8. I'm now saving up for whatever else Qmx may put out. I'll definitely have no qualms buying it

Well, you can still buy Serenity The updated paint apps and extra lighting compared to what was seen at SDCC, looks even better.

I didn't get to watch the show, thank God i think

I'm waiting for the next BSG replica to be made

 

[theguru1]

Fair enough.

I wonder if they will tackle a Battlestar, could be seriously cool, tho not doubt really not cheap. A Viper could be neat, but in theory the next main focus will be that Enterprise.

 

[tnaig001]

ok update. i know its seems like a necro post but the first replacement had problems and had to be sent back.

This is the second replacement and she is a thing of beauty

Kudos to Qmx for going the extra mile for a fan. They've definitely impressed me with their extraordinary service.

Pics.

 

[theguru1]

That's come up really really nice, it's like they learned a lot from Serenity and have applied all of that here, compared to when these were first made.

Great pics. I always like when I hear about a company taking care of their customers. Do you have the Blackbird or Serenity?? I'm hoping to get their Viper, and I wouldn't mind if they made a Galactica and Pegasus. Heck, throw in a Viper MK VII too while they're at it.

 

[darthviper107]

Very cool, I hope to get the Viper too, but I heard it's going to be $1,200-$1,800

Yeah this will definitely substitute for year's worth of collectibles easy. There was a video showing it off that I showed my GF, and she said it rocked so I know the green light has been given. The functioning Dradis is awesome.
