What!?

Does this mean the 4-foot Star Destroyer will never see the light of day????????? What about the three different colored Tie's? Don't tell me the Vader Tie too??? And the Tie Interceptor as well???? What about the Slave 1??? Or the Boba Fett Legendary helmet????

How about the................................

Hang on a minute, 6 years have just past and I now have a 5 year old son? I guess if I put down my non-refundable deposits now he should have them by the time he's my age.... with any luck.

I want to be excited...but just can't.

I'd love to see pictures of the TIE bomber and the studio scale probe droid - I know they'll take at least several years to come out if ever, but it's still cool to see someone doing something like this.

who cares to see those prototypes if the actual item might ship in 5 years (if ever) ... ?

Feel the exact same way-I'd be all over a SS Probe Droid if the thing ever got produced-just don't trust EFX.

I asked Nice-N Models if it is just the Y Wing being released by EFX, or the others as well. The announcement reads like every other model will just be Nice-N Models finished models. These are already displayed on their website. Haven't heard back from them though...

eFX and Nice-N models - a match made in heaven.

Haha yeah couldn't have said it better myself.

Believe it when I see it.

Why can't their be a reliable company that makes SW studio scale models? WTH, there's a lot of money to be made.

Your words are so true, just don't say this on the other board, the EFX cheerleaders will eat you alive

Having just received the Tie Fighter I really hope EFX starts releasing these pieces. The quality is incredible from the model, to the packaging, to the extras it came with. I'll be sad if it's the only EFX ship I get to unbox.

I hope someone can post pics from Celebration. I'd like to see all of them, especially the AT-ST and Y-Wing studio scale models.

EFX's Celebration booth. A lot of the models are from Nice-N Models, but everything is labeled EFX. I wonder if EFX plans on releasing these finished models?

Hello to all,

A little background about myself. I was the original pattern maker for the Escape Pod, Probe Droid and TIE Bomber. Steve owns my original patterns for the Escape Pod and Probe Droid. These have gone through a total overhaul from when I first made them due to limited reference available at the time. They are much more accurate now. I still own the patterns to the TIE Bomber but not sure if the one on display is actually a buildup from one of my kits I did years ago. At any rate, I hope EFX does go ahead and bring these out for the collectors as they should sell well and would be awesome pieces in anyone's collections. I know I'd love to own these once again.

These might take eons to be made...
