Farscape action figures

[brad]

Hey.... haven't posted here since 2005 wow, lol. Just wanted to ask I few things. I was just looking at Farscape toys on ebay as I noticed a lifesize Rygel plush had been released. I almost brought the small plush one year at a toy fair but I never knew they released a 26" lifesize one. Does anyone own him?? Expensive...

Anyway I was also looking on ebay at the action figures & I was a little shocked. Since when did the Rygel, Scorp & a few other figures become so rare & expensive? The first wave figures are still all cheap but the later series figures seem expensive. Shame I never brought those. I have a few of the earlier figures.... which I took out of packaging & regret that now. But I still have the empty packaging & the figures are somewhere. ha.

And lastly I remember seeing proto images of this Aeryn Sun figure & it seems she has been released since then. Does anyone own one of these & have any better quality photos of her?? I'd like a closer look at the figure. What size is the figure?

Wow - the packaging indicates that's a pretty big figure. Certainly bigger than the regular action figures I think, which all came in regular cardboard and plastic packaging (cardboard back, plastic jutting out holding the figure).

My girlfriend bought me a Rygel figure years ago, which I've still got (though not in it's wrapping).

I think more Farscape things should be done, in my opinion I'd like to see...

1 - ship models, especially with some stands and possibly model kits. I've got some Red Dwarf corgi models which are good (though it's the CGI Red Dwarf) which, though they aren't kits and are small matchbox size, come with plastic stands and are good. A selection of Moya, Talyn, Farscape 1, a Prowler and Lo'laa would be a great start

2 - scenes. Basically, imagine a set of a moment from Farscape and all the characters to go with it. I'd love to see the boat moment from Bad Timing, the John/Scorp scene with the carrier falling apart around them from Into The Lion's Den, and John yelling at Scorp from the getaway in the corridor from Liars, Guns & Money.

I have loads of the first action figures. rygel. John scorpy crais zhann etc etc. All still on the cards also have loads of books and loads of collectable things including the pc game nobody liked lol. I hope one day they become very collectable and I would love for more farscape to be made, I really miss the show. Where are the webisodes!? Come on skip the webisodes and make another series or a movie.

really.. I remember I downloaded the demo for the game & loved it. Always wanted to buy the full version to play but I never ended up doing so. Sounds like you have a nice Farscape collection. I only have 4 or 5 of the action figures, which I've just found the empty packaging for. Recently moved out of home & still have a lot of boxes to unpack so the actual Farscape figures are somewhere. I was going to put them back into their packaging to store on display. I have the dvds & a few issues of the official magazine. Thats about all I have. A friend in Melbourne went to a convention over the weekend where Ben was appearing & has got for me a personalised autograph so I can't wait for that to arrive! As well as an actress from Battlestar!

yeah it would be nice to see more farscape items out. ship models is definitely a great idea! And yeah they really need to make a Farscape movie. That would be awesome!
