ANOVOS USS Discovery and Shenzou studio scale models

$9,000 for the Disco and $8,000 for the Shen?

Give me two of each.

 

I MIGHT pay this for a comparable NCC-1701. Maybe. If I had 10k just lying around.

For Discovery? Never. I'm thoroughly enjoying the show. Still, never ever.

 

Anyone can loan me $17,000? It will buy you (limited) visiting rights! Anyone?

 

I'd have a tough time paying that much for a model even if I won the lottery.

 

Yet another product ANOVOS will make a killing in profits on. I would guess they cost nowhere near that much to have made at all.

 

It seems large and high quality. I am also thinking it makes me more intererested in Eaglemoss (who I have ~25 ships from already) as that price point is tough to the point of being unpalatable. I think if I had that kind of money to spend on a toy, I would wait for a large plastic model and hire a hobbyist to make it pretty.

 

Wayyyyy too much!!!
Now do a TOS Enterprise and might relent.

 

It's art, its gorgeous, and it will make someone happy who isn't me . I'll wait for the pizza cutter.

 

I'll happily, stupidly, will pony up the cash the moment ANOVOS does the DSC Enterprise.

Or, I'll just wait for Art Asylum/Diamond Select Toys to make one.

 

They sold the first 50 Discoverys in 24hours. Not bad. Decent turnover for a company that size.

 

I guess these too small to film with. Scale them 4-5x and use to film the show instead of crappy cgi we have.

 

I think they would film just fine honestly.

 

It hurts to be poor.

 

I don't like the phaser tip though.

I might cut that off, and use it for a smal scale model studio TV camera.

I get it harkens back to the Cage--but several ink pens have this Dr. Shrinker like ribbed disk stacked insert..

Place that inside a lucite cone--and it might make for a better pre-TOS phaser.

 

Let me pose a delicate question. If Amovos put out a 1701 as seen in TOS or the Disco version,would anyone buy one?

 

Nope. I could do a lot of travelling with that kind of coin.

 

Am I the only one who thinks the aztecing on the hull looks way, way too obvious?

 

Anyone know how big "studio scale", is?

 

In the past it meant the same size as the studio models used for visual effects filming. Since the Shenzhou and Discovery are fully CGI, it really means nothing. I'd guess from the photos they are about 3 ft long.
