Serenity Ornament Reaver Ship

by Dark Horse Comics

Product Features

• Hot ornament for your tree or your desk! Includes hanger and display stand. Show off your Serenity collection!
• Reavers run their ship 'hot' (without any proper engine radiation containment), allowing them to outrun their prey. But this hyper-realistic recreation of the vessel of the savage, brutal, and primal Reavers is hot for other reasons.
• Amazingly authentic from stem to stern, it includes both a display base and hanger. This is a definite must-have for any admirer of Joss Whedon's sci-fi drama Serenity!
• Ship measures 1 1/3-inches tall x 2-inches wide x 5 1/2-inches long and can be hung or placed on stand for display.

Product Description

Fans of Firefly and Serenity will be familiar with the look of the Reaver ships, created from abandoned ships and spare parts, with their threatening red markings. In Serenity, the Reaver Ships emerge from an ion storm in the quest for Mal and his crew. We've based our ornament on one of the memorable, menacing ships in this scene.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Christmas ornament is detailed, November 26, 2008

This review is from: Serenity Ornament Reaver Ship (Toy)

For some reason, Amazon wants to list this as a toy, so ignore the "toy" star ratings and go with the five stars overall. This is a Christmas ornament and is nicely detailed. My husband collects the Hallmark Star Trek and Star Wars ships, and the Serenity ships are more detailed in my opinion, but they're also more breakable due to the resin material. I do not hang these on my tree, but instead use the supplied stand to put them on my desk. Check out the regular Serenity ship, the Reaver Serenity ship, and Inara's shuttle if you like this one.

This review is from: Serenity Ornament Reaver Ship (Toy)

As a Firefly fan (post-cancellation - I tried to watch it when it was on the air but could never seem to find it, which seems to have been an intentional effort on the part of a rather stupid network executive who thought this sort of thing was "dumb"), I've picked up quite a few Firefly/Serenity memorabilia items over the past several years. I have the Serenity ornament (the best available model of the Firefly class transport, right now, unless you want to spend thousands and thousands of dollars for a truly superb model available from a specialty house out in California, complete with full animated lighting and so forth... WAY outside of my price range, sadly!), and I recently picked up the shuttle ornament and this one.

The other two "ornaments"... and from here on out, I'm going to call them what they really are, "display models"... are fantastic. They are as accurate as I can imagine for a model of that size and scale, and the finish in wonderful.

On a quality basis, I think that this model is perhaps slightly less detailed, overall. The detail seems... and this is subjective, mind you... a bit softer. But it's still very nicely put together and is a great model of the subject it's based upon.

My only real quibble with this model is that the choice of ship to be presented was... curious. We saw only one Reaver ship during the "Firefly" series, and this was based upon the movie so they couldn't use that one... but there were a lot of Reaver ships seen in the movie, and I remembered several of them. The one that stands out, to me, the most, is the one which pursued Serenity down to the planet surface. It was the only "major player" Reaver ship, in plot terms, and is the one we see the most of.

And that's not THIS ship. I don't even remember seeing this ship, actually. I'll go back and rewatch the movie to figure out if I can find this ship in the film. (Maybe it's one of those which show up in the initial sequence above the town?) But it's not the best choice for a Reaver ship. I want to see the ship that... well, that laid to rest the "leaf in the wind." (Trying to avoid spoilers here!)

This review is from: Serenity Ornament Reaver Ship (Toy)

This was a bit of a disappointment. For the price, I expected a larger toy - I guess "ornament" should have been a clue. It's tiny and doesn't conjur images of Mal & crew escaping the Reavers. Advice: be content with the picture. The product itself adds little value.
