I am still a keen player of EaW as it was the game which caused Armada to catch my interest and become the only tabletop game I have ever become a player of other than the occasional Chess game.

This being said I don't think I will personally feel like armada is ever finnished until it contains all the ships from that game and when they do finally stop supporting Armada I will hopefully be buying 3D ships from Mel of any FFG have missed, the only thing holding me back currently being lack of painting skills and limited disposable income.

Agree with you about EaW influencing my decision to get into Armada. Adding to your reasons for not getting any Mel Miniatures (yet), I'm also afraid that if I buy a Venator for example it will be an official expansion later.

That is a very good point I hadn't considered.

There's also a Lambda shuttle in the first episode of Firefly:

There is supposedly a Han frozen in carbonate in every episode of Firefly. I’ve only found 2 of them personally though.
