Cast in professional-grade resin and painted by hand, Dr. Horrible is pictured in his moment of triumph, holding his Freeze Ray aloft in one hand and shaking his fist at the world. As with all QMx animated maquettes, Dr. Horrible comes with many screen-accurate details, such as his goggles, the medical symbol on his smock and, of course, the aforementioned deanimation gun. He stands over six inches tall–nine, if you include his weapon. Freeze Ray. Tell your friends.

Dr. Horrible comes in an edition of 1,000 statues and is the first in a series of limited-edition maquettes based on the characters of Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog.

You need this on your desk to terrorize your coworkers and remind them that you have friends (or, rather, allies) in high, evil places.

Retail is $69.95, but if you preorder you get it for $55.96. You'd be criminally insane not to.

Tomorrow is Joss' birthday, and there's lots of ways to celebrate! Many of us will be gathering at various Can't Stop the Serenity events around the world (check here for the list and schedule), some of us will be holding quiet ceremonies in front of our home Joss shrines, and some of us can boost the economy in his name.

You know that huge painting in Adm. Adama's office in BSG? The one you never get a good look at?

QMx did, and the licensed reproduction of it is coming soon.

Through special arrangement with Universal Studios, QMx has acquired the only digital image of the painting taken directly from the canvas, after the propmaster aged it, but before it hung on Adama's wall. This extremely high-resolution source file documents every brush stroke, faithfully reproducing the color image exactly as it looked the day it was placed on the set.

Illustrating the epic battle between machines and Humans in the First Cylon War, the massive painting has been faithfully reproduce in a plate-printed 17" x 22" lithograph, printed on 100-pound, art-quality paper.

Available now for preorder from QMx for $14.95 or from TFAW for their discounted preorder price of $11.96.

That's not strictly accurate; QMx's Stargate replicas will not transport you to other worlds. For one thing, they're scale replicas, so not much of you would fit.

Get your own Stargate mirror, 10" across, for just $59.95. Scrupulously accurate:

Taken from the CGI files used on the show, the mirror has a removable clear blue overlay – so you can display it either in mirror mode or with the "event horizon" effect in place – and is hand painted with all 39 chevrons in their proper positions around the ring. The integrated wall hanger on the back of the mirror makes it easy to display at home, in your office or in your SGC ready room.

Or get a set of 4 Stargate coasters, $29.95:

The Stargate Coaster Set comes with four (4) mini-stargates each measuring 4.57" (11.6cm) across. The stargate design is exactly screen-accurate and was taken from the CGI files used to create the visual effects for Stargate SG-1. Each glyph and chevron is perfectly reproduced, hand-cast in resin and hand-painted with a detailed paint job and weathering. The event horizon is semi-transparent blue with a rippled surface, just like the big 'gates.

The mirrors are limited editions — not sure about the coasters yet — so order quick before they sell out. Available now! (If you don't mind waiting, you can preorder the coasters at TFAW.com for just $23.99)

"Collect four patches as seen in Joss Whedon's sci-fi epic, Serenity, with this patch set!"

Which is well and good but we don't get to see which patches or what sizes, making it kinda hard to tell if it's a good deal or not. However, I did some poking around and found that Forbidden Planet is selling four individual patches, including the one shown at TFAW, so if I had to guess I'd say these are what you'd be getting:

Still no descriptions or sizes, but at least we have pictures. Please note that I do not know for certain these are in the set at TFAW – although I'll try to verify it – so buyers beware.

Updated: yup, those are the patches in question, which I prolly would have noticed had I clicked on the "more pictures" links underneath the main pic. Thanks Adam (in the comments) for the heads up.

QMx's "Serenity: Big Damn Heroes" lithograph set by Steve Anderson is now available for preorder from TFAW.com, with their usual 20% off. You won't find them cheaper than this, folks.

We love our captain – and the rest of Serenity's crew. That's why we approached Steve Anderson, one of the best portrait painters in the business, and asked him to capture our Big Damn Heroes in a series of lithographs. Being a Browncoat of no small dedication himself, Steve gladly agreed to take on the daunting task of capturing the personalities and spirits of the BDHs.

The result is a series of museum-quality 13" x 19" lithographs, printed on 100-pound, satin-finish paper. The first set features Mal, Inara, Kaylee and Jayne, painted by one of the most reknowned portrait artists working today.
