Stargate Atlantis / SG1 - Merchandise - Quantum Mechanix: F-302 Tech Specs Poster
From the QMx Insider e-mail newsletter:
The much-anticipated Serenity/Stargate con in Burbank this weekend is a major milestone for us, featuring the largest number of new products we've ever introduced on a single day, plus our biggest product launch ever: We're talking 25 x 38 inches here!
But it just doesn't seem right to leave all the loyal Insiders who couldn't be in LA completely out of the festivities. So, while nothing can beat the pure joy of spending two days surrounded by like-minded individuals on a quest to have as much fun as possible, perhaps this will soothe the sting a bit.
During the run of the November 21-23, 2008 convention, all QMx Serenity, Stargate and Black Market Beagle products will be 10 percent off when you enter this code into the coupon field on our online store: CREATION. And ordering for a few of our hottest new products will open a couple days early - just so you can get the discount on them, too.
We're extending the same discount to folks who make it to the show as well. Just tell the QMx person at the booth "I'm an Insider," and they'll take 10 percent off your total purchase price.
If you can, be sure to drop by the show and say "hi." Nothing makes us happier than meeting our customers. And you never know. We might just have a surprise or two "flying" through the booth.
F-302 Technical Specifications Poster
This high-resolution rendering, taken directly from the CG files used to produce the visual effects on Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis, marks the first time such detailed images of the F-302 have been published. View this beautiful ship from the top, bottom, side and front. Pore over callouts showing all the major systems and weapons.
The F-302 Technical Specifications Poster measures 17 x 22 inches and is printed on 100-lb. satin-finish paper. It retails for the low price of just $14.95.
F-302 Strategic Fighter Replica
The F-302 is the culmination of Stargate Command's effort to develop a strategic fighter/interceptor to challenge Goa'uld dominance of the air. Based on the successful X-302 prototype, which was reverse-engineered from the Goa'uld Death Glider, the F-302 is Earth's first true production starfighter and is our first line of defense against extraterrestrial threats.
Now you can own your own F-302 screen-accurate replica, taken directly from the Stargate SG-1 CGI files.

Thanks again for taking time for these questions. I have a question this time about the 12" Stargate figures. Do you plan to release any accessory packs or different uniforms for these figures? It would be nice to have some offworld gear for them.

Jack O'Neill 12" figure
Brian Petersen:

DSTChuck: We do not have any plans to sell the outfits individually, but if the response is solid we'd love to make more 12" figures.
Callum Templeton:
Any Chance of the aliens from First Contact? And could you tell us what accessories Ronon comes with? Thanks.
DSTChuck: Not sure yet on aliens but I don't think so. Ronan comes with his blaster, GDO, P90, knife and sparring sticks.
James White:

DSTChuck: NO problem, thanks for taking the time to write in. Right now, we don't think the line has enough depth to produce something like that, but yes - if the first three figures do we'll we'll add more to the line and mix in new accessories as well...

Malcolm Tunney (Dave Foley)
Dave Foley gets geeky on 'Stargate Atlantis'
November 21, 2008
by Curt Wagner
Dave Foley gets around.
The comic and actor, who was a member of the famous comedy troupe Kids in the Hall and starred in the sitcom “NewsRadio,” has been making the rounds as a TV guest star.
He’s done memorable turns on “In Plain Sight,” “Lovespring International,” “Scrubs” and “Will & Grace.” In last Sunday’s episode of “Brothers & Sisters” he appeared as Ron Rifkin’s “disappointing and annoying blind date.”
At 8 p.m. Friday he plays another grating but comical character on Sci Fi Channel’s “Stargate Atlantis.”
Foley stars as Malcolm Tunney, an old schoolmate and rival of David Hewlett’s Dr. Rodney McKay. Tunney has invented (actually stolen from McKay) a device that is supposed to stop global warming, but once he turns it on it almost kills everybody at a big geek convention, including Bill Nye the Science Guy and astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson — who play themselves...

Talking Physics, Astronomy And ‘Stargate Atlantis’ With Bill Nye
By Joseph Dilworth Jr.
November 21, 2008
“Brain Storm”, the latest episode of Stargate Atlantis, guest-stars Dave Foley, Neil deGrasse Tyson and Bill Nye. Also known as the “Science Guy”, Nye has shown many people the fun and entertaining side to science. His show, Bill Nye the Science Guy ran for four years on PBS and majorly influenced me in an interest in physics and astronomy. Thanks to SCI FI, I recently had a chance to speak with him about his appearance on Stargate and a whole range of other topics. While this may not read as funny, trust me when I say he had me laughing the entire conversation. Note: there are some mild spoilers below so you may want to read this after you watch the episode.
PCZ: How did you get involved with doing an episode of Stargate Atlantis?
PCZ: Most of the time on a show like Stargate, a fictional show, it’s usually…
PCZ: You tell me, how real is it?

PCZ: How did you get involved with doing an episode of Stargate Atlantis?
BN: Robert Picardo is on the advisory board of The Planetary Society. I have been a member of The Planetary Society since 1980. Now I’m the vice president and he and I have become really good friends. So he asked me if I’d be interested and he asked them [the producers] if they’d be interested and we converged. It turns out that Stargate-ians are all big Bill Nye fans. It’s cool.
PCZ: Most of the time on a show like Stargate, a fictional show, it’s usually…
BN: Fictional, what?!? Are you kidding? That’s not real?
PCZ: You tell me, how real is it?
BN: I’ll just tell you, [on the episode I'm in] the world almost ends, man. It takes us like fifty-four minutes to keep the world from ending. We really had to focus.
