Looking to buy some 2500 minis

Post by Commander Czym »

Hello all, I'm looking to get a collection of 2500 minis going. I have two ships now and I like the size differences with the 2400. Bigger ships are easier to paint.

Anyways, I am having trouble finding places on the web and the few I have found have really high shipping costs. Since this is a place for fans to go that already have minitures, I thought I would check here to see if anyone wants to sell some of theirs. They would be going to a good home.

Reply back if you are interested or know of a place that sells them, either on line or somewhere in the Virginia area.

Thank you

Amarillo Design Bureau sells the minis direct to customers, through their web-store.

I have some of the original resin / plastic minis, boxed sets from Mongoose, I'd be willing to part with at below cost. I'll have to pull them out and inventory them, and then figure out how much I'd need to ask.

Garth,

If you have any Fed cruisers in resin after the OP has his chance please let me know. I would like to convert some to DDs and SCs, so broken ones would be okay.

Garth...
If you find you have any... any resin minis left after servicing the other two posters that you want to part company with - let me know.

The quality of the resin minis sucks to high heaven and they require a lot of work to make serviceble; but they are great for kit bashing.

Turns out, I don't have as many resin ships as I thought I had. Only the Federation Fleet box and Klingon Squadron #2 box were all resin. Plus I bought two extra Fed police cutters. In total, I have ($99.95 +$29.95 + 14.95) $145 invested in these.

I can let them go, all of them together in one box, with stands, for, say $115 and that includes shipping. I'll even throw in one copy of the ACTA pocket rule book if you really want it.

Federation Fleet Box:
Frigate x3
Light Cruiser x2
Battle Frigate x2
Strike Cruiser
Dreadnought
Heavy Cruiser x2
Battle Cruiser x2
Fast Cruiser
Police Cutter x4
Also, two spare BC and four spare FFG engines.

Klingon Squadron Box #2:
C8 Dreadnought
D6 Heavy Cruiser
D7 Battle Cruiser
C7 Heavy Cruiser
F5 Frigate

EDIT: To buy these new from ADB in metal would cost $265 plus shipping. I'm offering them at less than half the price, but they are resin not metal.

EDIT TWO: I went back thru all the boxes and pulled out all the resin dreadnoughts: 2x Kzinti DN, 2x Romulan Condor, 2x Romulan KC9, plus a mobile base. I'll add these to the box for $10 each.

One of the Kzinti DN's has the end broken off the aft left-side weapon pod, but I do have the piece.

Replied to PM .... Guys, I'd really prefer to sell the box as a set and not piecemeal it out.

One set of dreadnoughts is half-way to Canada, and the other (with a mobile base) just left for Tennessee. The big set is waiting for confirmed payment and a shipping address before it can go anywhere.

It's been two weeks (15 APRIL 2017) since the last contact from the first person who asked for the fleet-box set of minis. If I don't get a reply by tomorrow evening, I'll contact the next person who made an offer to buy them (the guy in Canada). If he passes, I'll open the offer back up.

I've got a pile of the older lead mini's that I no longer need. Mostly ISC/Gorn if you're interested.
