As for pricing? A representative from Factory Entertainment revealed through social media that the cost of each approximately-three-foot-long model is expected to start at a $15,000 USD price point โ€” the models will be produced mainly of resin, but will also feature other mixed material in their construction.

Just send them an e-mail reminding them that the economics of the future are somewhat different, and money doesn't exist in the 24th century.

Who is the target market for this?

[-] ggiesen@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 year ago

My guess is people who use $100 bills for toilet paper.

[-] cyd@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Oof.

Meanwhile, Star Wars is rocking a line of high quality Bandai kits that cost about $30.

Also Star Wars has LEGO which are legit high quality. Would absolutely kill for an official Star Trek UCS treatment.
