anyone know which show series had the best ratings between Babylon 5, Stargates, Battlestar Galacticas?

If I was to take a guess I'd say overall the Stargate shows.

I would love Stargate ships. I would also like to see some from Buck Rogers. Maybe they could do a "catch all" sci fi collection that highlighted ships from all different science fiction shows and movies.

I'm not sure how well that would work as a subscription since not everyone would want every ship.

 

If they did a non subscription model for that kind of collection, I could see it. But I don't know if EM does that.

The issue with B5 is, for starters, it's merchandise. JMS has a personal thing against such stuff after experiences with toy company interference on the Real Ghostbusters and Captain Planet, we all know the worlds changed, and these are far from toys, so who knows? But this is why we had so few lines for B5 in its heyday.

Also, WB seems to have some personal vendetta about burying B5 and keeping it out of syndication, so no Trek style resurgence is possible. Plus, I don't know the details, but due to the way the CGI effects were done, HDing the show is pretty much impossible. So no showings, very few new fans, no exposure, and no backing by JMS, equals what we have now, zero B5 presence. I don't have sources for any of that, but much of the above has been floating around for awhile.

I'd personally love to see a Gerry Anderson line from Eaglemoss! Particularly with Captain Scarlet turning 50. Maybe they could do a "best of sci-fi" line or something akin to that?

Viper Mark 2 is up for preorder on BBTS:

http://www.bigbadtoy...onDetails/63275

 

8-11 inches long, so these will be about the size of EM's speicals and jumbos.

 

Really hoping for some capital ships early on.

Really excited for this line. I think I'll sell my extra set of BSG Hasbro Titaniums as with these out I have no need for them.

 

Like you, I hope for the Battlestars, and given what work EM has done with trek I'd say we will 100% get a Galactica and a Pegasus and there is a good chance we'll get a Valkyrie also. EM have shown, if it sells, they'll keep going...

Valkyrie is an instant purchase for me, I need her to go along with my Moebius Pegasus and Galactica. She may even be somewhat close to being in scale at that size.

I am curious if we’d get the Valkyrie how it originally appeared, or it’s later look from The Plan.

I personally prefer the newer look to the original, but would take either one. Or both.

Galactica:

While the only ship in this line I really want is Valkyrie, I may be tempted to buy Galactica, Pegasus, and a modern Cylon Baseship.

Uh nice, didn't know they would make capital ships, thought they were just going with fighters/raptors. The paintjob looks a lot like the old model from Art Asylum/Diamond Select made out of resin, which isn't a bad thing at all.

I'm torn with this. I want them, but while the price on its own is ok, we are still in the thick of the main Trek Collection and with the new Disco one just starting. Its adding up.

 

I might cherry pic, but I'd need to get all the Battlestars and probably the Mk2 and 7.

Definitely like the paint job more than Moebius's prefinished one.

Its not even just price, its making room for all these collections to be displayed. 

 

I love that they're doing them, but my wallet and town house hate them. 

 

I'm definitely going to cherry pick with this one. As much as I'd love a display of the civilian fleet, Battlestars, and various fighters, I just can't.

The subscription is live in the US:

https://en-us.eaglem...y18_BSGlaunch_1

 

Its so tempting, but I think I'll just stick to individual ships. 

 

The new site is also showing us a couple new ships:

What a beast. I love that show. Any chance they'll do an FTL variant with the bays tucked in?

If the collection does super well, Id imagine theyd expand into variants at some point.
