I think these guys used the same bronze casting service we use:

Not exactly the same saucer, but clearly related to it.

Either that, or they totally ripped off somebody.

Oh, hey, reading comprehension for the win.

Also, the class 1,2, and 3 saucers are shown lower on the page linked in the OP, so there's that too.

I'm glad ninjamagic gets the business, we need them to stick around.

Ha ha, I was just going to say something similar!

Very Flash Gordony (the black and white tv series) and very cool.

No,......doesn't do anything for me. Just not my genre.

However, I wish the manufacturer all the best and much success.

I saw these at GenCon and must admit they looked great. Paint jobs were superb and minis looked very well done. Very clean sculpts and nice detail. Also, I was very surprised at the variety of models for each faction.

That being said I didn't have time to demo the game. Would have if I had not been scheduled into other events. I would have liked to have given an opinion from a "gaming" standpoint. The genre is still not my thing but, actually seeing the minis, paint jobs, etc it did make a difference in my desire to play the game.

I own a Valkeeri fleet for this game. It is a lot of fun and very quick, but still pretty detailed. I would recommend it for the rules (if you dont like the pulp sci-fi) and the minis are great and easy to paint.

I've got a Galacteer fleet.
The Hydra guys are good people, the minis are great, and the game is quite fun.
I don't think it'll ever reach main game status, but it's worth the buyin and painting time.
