Start saving your pennies kids!...District 9 Exo Suit
polycounter lvl 18
Was playing around at the WETA site today and stumbled on this bad boy coming first quarter 2011...The bad ass Exo Suit from District 9! A little pricey at almost $600.00 but man does it look nice.

way to expensive even though that thing is so badass. I would totally consider getting it if it was like 200.
This thing is a foot tall. Comparable WH40k models, Forgeworld Titans, also cost over $600.
Saw this at Comic-con. Fucking Badass.
So you'd pay 600$ for a single foot tall 40k model. I mean it is COOL but, come on, really? 600$ for something that sits there, doesn't interact does LOOK COOL, but will sit there and collect dust. I mean if it shot little fake rockets at people who came in your office or whatever, i would totally no problem pay 600$ for it.
I agree about the price though, 600 is pretty out of my range.
I expect this to appreciate 3x in a couple of years when it will be only available on ebay. But I'll get one as keeper than as an investment.
how the hell is that desk $17k, its glass and shiny metal. what is the glass actually imbedded with diamonds or something?!
~ wtf. i could just buy some glass and metal, and make that for like $70.
If I'm buying furniture for $17,000 it better have a built in 'make my life perfect' feature. Or at least have "This table cost $17,000 BITCHES" engraved clearly on the face of it.
I would do the same
"Starting at: $16,295
*Item pictured may include more expensive options."
More expensive options?!?! What are they? The 2 inch riser plugs coming off the frame or was it Windex-ed by hand with the shroud of Turin by Ralph Lauren before being sealed hermetically in a cardboard box made of endangered albino redwood tree pulp? Insane.
And this...I think of this...

There's no way I would ever pay 600 for this.
My point was that calling it a 40k model just reinforces the price point.
if you had both you could make an epic battle !
i even thought "why are people complaining about 600$ for a life-sized exo suit to run around in" - then i clicked the link
