What is that? I’m not sure if I like that or not. Yes, it’s very shiny and looks like a lot of work has gone into it, but its like a mixture of old Midget and new Midget.

>its like a mixture of old Midget and new Midget.
But it doesn’t sufficiently resemble either. It’s completely bizarre, if you ask me.

There’s loads of sci-fi related models in the sellers shop. It’s just a hunch, but something tells me that the manufacturers haven’t bothered to obtain a license to produce any of these.

I think this is likely, yes.

Yeah, I know what you mean – looks like it’s from Red Dwarf: The Animated Series… :-)

ALSO: STARBUG @

Now, THAT one looks just like the Product Enterprise version (but with the old school paint job).

[Ian Symes]

Good. Now fetch me gin.

The starbug model looked pretty good. (Although I’m curious if it actually is there’s… but anyway.)

The blue midget with “scale model” in white letters down the side? No thank you.

Please tell me that was a joke…

That’s not the Starbug they’re selling – I’m pretty sure I took that photo, which is of the official Starbug toy, on the GNP office floor!

yeah, a lot of the listings don’t actually have a picture of the models – just a picture from the movie/tv series/whatever.

Yeah I figured that was likely the case.
