Retailer question about FC V6 Rulebook

Has the V6 of the FedCom Rulebook shipped to distributors? I've tried twice to get them from Alliance and they keep sending me V5 books.

Badger makes a good compressor. I've had mine for about 4 years and it runs great. If it is the budget, get the auto-shutoff model.

Well...

To return to where this thread started, if anyone has a surplus of Federation Old Light Cruisers, I'd love to take them off your hands. Please PM me, I'll gladly take any fairly unreasonable offers. :D From now on, I'll be sure to keep my opinions to myself.

These are all valid and excellent points, but there is a significant number of customers (and potential customers) that would like to purchase higher quality miniatures set in the Star Fleet universe. Based on the prices the older SFU models fetch in the secondary market (let alone the FASA kits ...

Dang.

I was just about to jump into SFB minis, too.

I guess though...

a) My son won't notice the lack of quality-- and I'm mainly getting them to keep him into my hobby

b) Even mediocre minis will make my demos more fun and attractive

c) I'm a lousy modeler and will actually benefit from the ...

As a retailer, I know it costs ADB in sales of models. It is difficult to see the incredibly up to date FedCom that was made for the modern marketplace have a less than modern miniature component. In every demo game I run I get "wow, great game!" and then the "ugh, what else can I get" response to ...

This particular range of models is the only line that I know of that did not improve with age. :lol: I understand most of the reasons for this, but it so weird to be looking for 25 year old models that are manufactured better than their modern equivalents. I guess it makes me appreciate the classics ...

Ongoing I'm sure. If you end up with any, I'll gladly buy or trade for them. Since I have a hobby store that specializes in games and miniatures, I'm sure to have something that might interest you.

My long term goal is to have about a dozen total, so this will probably take a while. I started a ...

Looking for old style of Fed OCL

If anyone has any of the old style Federation Old Light Cruisers with the detached engines, I would be very interested in buying or trading for them.

I would certainly purchase all three of the proposed boosters. If you put the item up in the store as a pre-order, I would happily put my money down to get the process moving along.

I run a Gaming/Hobby store and would love carry your decals. Do you have a distributor or deal direct to stores?

Is there any chance you will be able to produce a generic decal set for windows? It would be nice to have a sheet with a variety of colors and sizes to use on the various race's ships.
