Oh man.. after watching that it makes me want one even more... so cool. :r2d2line

Here is another video of the R2 D2. Pretty cool stuff, to bad that the video is not all that great, as for that Price you would want a lot higher resolution. If you have a Video Ipod, then you could watch some of the Video through R2.
Also they talk about the Skype phone Lightsaber and R2 webcam, thats pretty cool as well, and a lot cheaper at $350, but still a bit pricey.

I SO want them to do some Farscape stuff. I honestly think it was one of the most under-rated shows about, I'd kill for a working DRD!

I would like to see them do a Stormtrooper helmet & a Snowtrooper Helmet & while I wishing here it would be really nice if they didn't cost like $500.00... :trooper

Darth - they are doing the classic Stormtrooper helmet this year. Probably be in the $350 - 400 price range.

Keo - Check my Collection Gallery for Farscape items. I've got a pulse pistol there. I also have a DRD full size kit I need to build up. It has lights but I want to slip a radio control car in it so it can move around.

Other than that, I want a Qui-Gon .45 scaled saber.

Looks like the Qui-Gon Jinn scaled Lightsaber will be an exclusive for Master Replicas Collectors Society for 2007.

Thanks again for the info, Jeff.

I finally caved and joined the CS the other day. I got an e-mail from MR that they had found some of the 2004 Con-exclusive Obi-Wan AFB scaled sabers which they were putting on sale to CS members.

That, on top of the Qui-Gon scaled saber, was enough to get me to break down and join.

Thats great you are able to get those Light Sabers, and that they released some of the 2004 Obi-Wan Sabers. I am still a bit on the fence about joining. Some of the things they have mentioned for 2007 have me interested, but hoping to hear more. Maybe once they start shipping some of the 2007 products, I will be inspired to join, I am hoping as well that maybe they will announce some more Star Trek products, that may tip me over.

I also finally broke down and joined yesterday. I joined primarily for the Qui-gon mini, and am hoping to participate/win in some of the trivia contests. I'd like, but probably won't be buying any of the helmets -- too expensive, nor the CS exclusive LEs (which haven't yet been announced).

What I'd really like is for MR to make some .45 scale helmets, for around $100 I'd buy them.
I'd also like to see some smaller - more affordable - ship models, both Star Wars and Star Trek. I'd like to find the Enterprises (all of them) in a nice, but relatively inexpensive, smallish form.

How's that for answered prayers? Mini helmets, and mini vehicles. Now they just need to add the Star Trek vehicles.

jedijeff · February 08, 2007, 07:38:10 PM

The Mini helmet line is good news, definitely interested in that. Still hoping for some more news on Star Trek items, as I really would like to add some nice Star Trek pieces to my collection.

Rico · February 09, 2007, 05:14:03 AM

They are doing a Trek TNG Tricorder this year and an assault phaser (movie).

Some Star Wars Expanded Universe props would be awesome too. Maybe some of the masks from The Knights Of The Old Republic video games.

Yeah i want Darth Reven's and that huge sith in KOTOR II (the one that is master to Vissas Mur (or what ever her name is)
