I know I'll be buying the Nyx and one of the Megas (for scale, of course.)
I'll also put them on display and not run around the house making screeching spaceship and laser noises spewing saliva everywhere in the process.. Probably.


I just hope that CCP has ordered enough of them, unlike the Eve Source book that I missed out on originally.
Props to CCP by the way, for making the models (roughly) the same scale.

The Nyx is about 1/4600th scale and the mega is around 1/4000th scale (I forget the exact numbers forgive me.)

[speculation]

My guess is that the Nyx is going to be in the $800 to $900 Usd range based on other products on Triforce's website and the mega will probably be in the $150 - $200 range.
Thoughts?

[/speculation]

Who else is getting one of these models?

If they are 800-900 dollars I'd better get a job.

I want some kind of Minmatar ship. Preferably a Nid, Hel, Nag, or Ragna Cool

or a modular Loki Twisted

I've got 6 or 7 accounts and they are all, without exception, Minmatar focused. Because in rust we trust P

What models are we talking about? Physical, or just remakes of the EVE V3 models?

I'd love to have the Nyx model, but with prices like that I would have to pass. Up to $200 I would do. But for $800... man I could pay my flight and my hotel for Fanfest '15 with that kind of money.

Yeah it's a bit expensive. I'm hoping it'll be closer to the $500 range on the top end but from the looks of the other items on TriForce's website that's probably not going to be the case.

Wait till they have a PLEX option, NYX = 1000 PLEX or your soul either will do.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Maybe if you claim you need it for a mental and emotional crutch after your traumatic experience....in public school? (Where gets dicey but be inventive.)

Why not make them both the same scale?

1/4600 and 1/4000 is pretty close

...and using little different scale (like 1/4000 instead of 1/4600) will help in this case? Lol
