QMX $10,000 Enterprise D

[gagaliya]

I think those guys have finally gone off to the deep end, seriously wtf...

Instead of making a more mass marketed enterprise in the $1000 range similar to master replicas version, they decided to double down on the existing $5000 version and make it $10000.

my bet is there will be plenty of rich nerds lining up for this

Ordered. Trying to decide if I need another one to keep MISB.

 

[Dr Daystrom]

I'm sorry, but for 10 grand, it would need to have every single deck and interior feature internally, and tiny nanotech robots depicting the entire crew to persuade me. Yikes...

 

[darthviper107]

I think you could probably pay a good model builder less than that to do a better job

 

[Darth Waller]

$10,000? Yeah, not going to happen.

[cplhicks]

Wow that's a year of tuition for me

 

[SAB]

I swear collectibles companies are just starting to troll now.

"We keep putting prices up and people keep buying! I wonder how how we can push it before people snap!?"

You won't be getting a 3rd to flip? Man, once these are gone you'll be able to name your price.

 

[Phil Sierra]

It's nice looking, but for 10 grand? Don't think so.

 

[jkno]

For this amount of money you can get screen used original props

 

[subzro]

All they need is 100 guys to buy one. I'm sure there is 100 rich Star Trek fans around the world that would drop $10,000 on this.
But I still think that they are to pay that much.

 

[Valfar]

I'm sure the smart fans of this ship would rather buy a kit and have it custom painted and lit for a fraction of that cost..that price is just rape.

 

[budafett]

It's made in the United States, what did you expect it to cost?

 

[Centurion]

This $10K will stay right here with me.

nah it's purely price hijacking, this one is no better or worse than their other studio scale enterprise ships which cost $5000 and also made in usa. That's why i said those guys are out of their mind.

It's as if qmx doesnt want to make money and buildup a brand image as a popular prop maker. They make either $100 junk or $5000 models for star trek...and skips the most in demand market for props/models in the $1000 range.

Oh ****, their other Studio Scale was made in the US too?

Nevermind!

Is it April 1? I mean, with what went down with Star Wars this week it sure ****ing feels like it. Wow ten grand for an Enterprise-D. That is ****ING INSANE! Ten grand for a collectible that's not even studio scale?!? I mean, its smaller than the JJ Abrams Enterprise they were offering and nearly twice the price. Beyond price gouging. Maybe one percent of all Trek fans out there can even think about getting one of these ships, let alone buy it. QMX deserves what is coming to them--bankruptcy.

 

[F0RSAK3N]

Maybe I will get one at a garage sale after the apocalypse.
