Pretty much a tie at present between Brigade, GZG and Ravenstar.

Musashi Enterprises the makers of Spaceships from StarBlazers or Space Battleship Yamato.

I also like FASA who did the Star Trek ships(when they were around).

Martian Root Canal06 Aug 2017 8:13 a.m. PST

Love Spartan Games ships. The rules, not so much.

TheBeast Supporting Member of TMP06 Aug 2017 8:20 a.m. PST

See? We can't make up our minds!

Covert Walrus comes close to my list, but can't keep out Studio Bergstrom, which includes several Charles Oines, Irrational Design, designs. And… And…

And PLEASE, don't add '…of all time!'

Is this what a 'golden age' is like?

I'd have to go old-school with Galactic Knights minis, particularly the bugs and beasts.

I wish the 2e GZG minis were around when I came into Full Thrust. They're great…the old ones I had, not so great.

boy wundyr x06 Aug 2017 1:30 p.m. PST

Studio Bergstrom would be at the top of my list, but GZG and Brigade follow closely. Metal Express/Silent Death for fighters.

BlackWidowPilot Fezian06 Aug 2017 1:31 p.m. PST

*Reviresco's Star War 2250 AD Federation ships

*Superior/Monday Knight Productions Galactic Knights

*Valiant Miniatures Stardate 3000

*Hydra's War Rockets

*Silent Death's 1st edition minis (I like many of the Next Millennium designs, but not all – Hah!)

*Ground Zero Games

*Brigade Games

*Bandai's Yamato 2199/2202 Mecha Colle kits (OK, they're model kits technically, but they're cheap, insanely detailed, and most are perfect for tabletop starship combat gaming)

What was that Doug said about a "golden age" again? YA THINK?!! LOL!!evil grin

Hmm, well.

My main collections right now are ADB's Trek stuff, some remakes of the old FASA Trek stuff, old Ravenstar Galactica stuff, Bandai's Yamato model kits, and my own 3d sculpts. (Some of which are now under "ADB's Trek Stuff", I'm proud to say.)

I also have a large number of ships from Babylon 5 Wars, Ground Zero, Aerotech, Brigade, a few other Shapeways designers, Studio Bergstrom….

Ravenstar is good when he gets an order straightened out.
