    Shiny, but out of my price range I'm sure.

    If they won't print the price on their web page, it must fall into "if you have to ask the price, you can't afford it" category.

    Awesome. That looks quality right there. *Signs Up* I wonder if they would offer a kit version, so I could do the building/painting/wiring/etc. by my own hand.

    This is the first model of a space ship I'd consider buying since Return of the Jedi.

    But I wouldn't necessarily need the full custom job (although it's gorgeous, I'm not sure I'm willing to pay for it). Maybe it's time to search for a model that still needs assembly and a paint job. Anybody know if such a thing exists?

    Am I blind, or is there no price to be seen?

    Are we talking $200 or $2000? It looks like each one is custom made by special effects specialists.

    @winshape: I'd like to know the price too (and either we're both blind, or it's not there).
    Maybe someone at Comic Con could say what the model is selling for there?

    @winshape: If you look around the website, they are selling a cylon raider with less bells and whistles for $950, so I'm guessing it's going to be closer to $2000 than $200. Much as I'd love to have one, I'll find it hard to justify.

    Just emailed a price request. Don't think I can afford, but doesn't hurt to ask

    @Dr Emilio Lizardo: I think the obvious solution is to steal it. It’s what Malcolm Reynolds would. Who wants to help me plan a heist?

    Although if it turns out the vendor has some sick kids, we’ll be obligated to return it.
