Well I've never been one for collectables in the past but I'd like a bed with the end made up to look like the flight deck of Serenity! That would be fun, no wait, then I'd be up all night pretending I'm a leaf on the wind.

You can never go wrong with model's of the Ships. Jubal's space ship would be a cool addition. As would the Dortmund space station from the pilot....A replica sign that read "Good Dogs" or maybe the train from Train Job. Hands of Blue would sit proudly upon any window ledge too. Or Tracy in his coffin from the Message as a replica scale model. Oh and definitely a reaver of some sort in requisite menacing pose.

For now that's what springs to mind.

Some nice ideas there. For me personally, I prefer replicas of things as they are, like a casting of a pistol or two, or some other prop. not so much one for the figures. I think I will definitely be shelling out for the firefly model though cuz its just so damn shiny. I have the Dark Horse comics two which have some pretty nice artwork, unfortunately I could get all the covers I wanted.

A bed end made up to look like the flight deck? how awesome would that be? Wait though, would that just actually be a flight deck?

You reminded me of something I would love, which is a bedroom like the ones just off of the flight deck, where you go down a ladder and everything is all cosy. Mal's room seemed to be a decent size too.

Well yes...Yes it would be, that's true... However just think you could be jumping and leaping about like a loon on your bed while pretending to be under attack.... So ok it's a little childish but what the hey.

In reference to castings of props, what about Jubal Early's gun? Or the Alliance gun from Ariel.

A room like Mal's would be cool too. It could work if you had a basement.

Wow that must be the biggest response I have got ever. Did you just write it or did you have it already? It must havwe covered everything going.

"1. Serenity model with lights and spinning engine (If possible) thing. QMX Fall 2007?"

Is this in the works? Any link to some pics or info?

Not that good a typist. I wrote my 10 ten just then. The rest I keep in a file and add to it and post it here and there every once in a while. Like now.

http://www.quantummechanix.com/

QMX are the people who made the Serenity Blueprints, cashy money replica, Mal's gun replica.

Yes, the model is in the works. They are going to do a signature line too...like signed by Nathan (Our Captain) Fillion.

Info is on their website. No picture of actual model but words describing what they want it to look like.

I have their Blueprints and cashy money. Wonderful work. I expect the model to be wonderful. I hope they figure out how to get the engine spinny thing to work safely.

http://www.poplollies.com/ has some of the QMX blueprints (which soldout at QMX) and the money packs. Other stuff too.

There is a new website for Serenity/Firefly collectors if you want to check it out.

Episode 5 and 6 of Tim (Firefly) Minear's Drive with Nathan Fillion to air on Fox FRIDAY 7/13/2007 8/7 c

Thanks for the link. That gun is too expensive for me right now so ill stick with my resin cast. Thanks for the link, cant wait for that ship.

I have one of those floating globe things so I think ill try and rig a Serenity model to hover in it.

I'd love a working model of the Mule...or at the very least, a riding lawnmower decked out like the Mule so I'd feel a little more shiny whilst doing yardwork...

Warning! Wide Load! (Those URLs are potentially dangerous...)

I'll keep these lines short for easy reading.
My number one collectible right now is Adam Baldwin's
notated and signed script for "Serenity" (the pilot
episode). I managed to win the eBay auction for that.
If you want a description, there is a thread on this site
in which I gloated... er, shared the bounty with my fellow 'coats.

I also have the usual suspects: posters, cast photos,
books, Serenity blueprints, T-shirts, and the ornament.
I'm definitely going for the big QMX model when it
comes out.

When you get right down to it, though, I'd give up
any and all of those items in a heartbeat, if that
would get us a Firefly Season 2.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm pointin' right at it!

Xander - I am pretty Certain they are the same one, the bronze one is the realistic pic. I've not heard of the silver version and that is likely a prototype image.

There is a light-up Reaver version of Serenity based on that ornament is supposed to be released in another month or so.

Mal's pistol from QMx will be at the top of my list when it's released, but from my current collection:

1. Firefly Press Kit DVD has to be at number 1 because it contains unreleased interview clips and an extended version of the set tour with Joss.
2. Serenity Press Kit VHS.
3. Serenity Press Kit DAT tape.
4. Firefly parking lot pass used by cast and crew.
5. Serenity CD-ROM Press Kit.
6. Collection of signed photos.
7. Master set of Serenity trading cards.
8. Master set of Firefly trading cards.
9. EzyDVD Exclusive Serenity Collectors Tin.
10. Visual Companions.

I would love to have Zoe's long off-white coat which can be seen in the episode 'Out of Gas'& 'The Message'.

The coat says everything to me about Zoe.....Beautiful & Powerful.

As weird as it sounds, I'd like to have River's 2 butt kicking dresses (maidenhead and reaver - its a blue one and a green one) :P Oh, and her end-of-movie weapons XD Mal's brown coat would be cool too. Oh, River's headpiece at the beginning of the movie would be....interesting XD

Let's see...what else? Oh...Vera :)

I'm not really into stuff that's not recognizable (like some random glass that was sitting on the dinner table)...if I get something, I want it to be blatantly obvious where it came from to anybody who's seen said material.
