Sanity is Optional Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Eaglemoss apparently decided they wanted to make another Rocinante, before the first one even shipped: XL Rocinante (FYI, some of the images are repeats of the normal version's) Two same-angle comparison shots: XL Spoiler Original Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobber Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 That one is going to be quite big, 12.8 inches. Pulled the trigger on it as I passed on the standard one. Hoping for a Donnager too. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tking22 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Damn I'm in for an XL Roci, the only Eaglemoss ship I have is the XL Orville and it's pretty nice. Once BBTS puts it up I'll grab one there, add it to my Pile of Loot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity is Optional Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I'm currently deciding if I want the XL, since I already ordered the normal sized one (2 actually, one for a friend). It does look like the XL has better colors and texture, so it's very tempting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It already takes long enough for them to get things in stock without having to wait even longer for BBTS to get things. I’m still waiting on the Armored Galactica and the XL Sulaco. Dates for them have been pushed back a little already. It’s pretty common with Eaglemoss unfortunately. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it’s clearly larger than the original Titan but not XL scale like the Cerritos. Weird. Here are some comparison shots at similar angles: biggest difference I see besides scale and coloring is the different Bussard collector shroud. I can see some other details and refinements but that is the biggest difference. I want to get this but I also don’t want them to just turn around and immediately release an XL like they are doing with the Roccinante.

Podtastic Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Now Daggits. Battlestar Galactica Muffit the Daggit Figurine (eaglemoss.com) This isn't on my list, in fact it looks unfinished to me. But I do hope we get an enthroned Imperius Leader and an IL Series at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dobber Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) Eaglemoss announcement sent in email to collectors in Dec. Correction: I misspoke, it is the final ship.

It's a little sad that their not doing the Cylon Tanker, but at least they did the classic Colonial shuttle. Be nice if they did some Buck Rogers ships. I could use an Eaglemoss Warhawk.

Dobber Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I’d love some Buck Rogers too. Thunder fighters, Marauders, and Hawks ship would be so cool. Make it the Glen Larson collection. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Wouldn't mind Buck Rogers, but I'd be far more interested in some good quality Babylon 5 ships. They've got a pretty massive variety to choose from too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also more “teen” drama type shows. Which is Ok in small doses but to bank most of a series on the model gets very tiresome. IMO JMS has already come out saying he is updating the story to reflect more modern politics etc. which is sad because after rewatching the original it still very much reflects the modern day climate of internal conflicts, authoritarianism, mouthpiece media manipulation etc. Wherever you may fall on the political spectrum it applies and works for most as we see the “other”side in the “bad” guys and our own in the “good” guys. Unfortunately, too often in todays story telling there is never any nuance and is always told as “my political side good your side is bad. “ and nothing can be left open to interpretation.
