Those are perfect for my office. Gotta get them. Any idea where else they may be sold?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">That's just it...I have no info on them! They are not even mentioned on Playing Mantis' web site. Nothing comes up on a web search either. These things are a mystery! [img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img]Quote:

316what -
Hell yeah if you can find a set that would be sweet! You can just put it on my tab at the moment!
Nice info find Peeker - I couldn't find that info anywhere on their site
I'm not even a Trekkie, but those are pretty nice for only $4!
WTF - they're plastic?! Series One was originally going to include the Cardassian Galor. Instead they went with TOS overkill [img]mad.gif[/img] . Wonder how they stack up against the Furuta ships? Might have to look for the NX-01. Not sure about the rest. <font size="1">(post more pics!)</font>
BTW Andy, you have a PM on the way - purely coincidental.
