QMx presents "Little Damn Heroes" Maquettes

The word epitomizes Serenity’s unsinkable engineer, Kaywinnit Lee Frye, or as she’s known to friends, Kaylee.

Now for the first time, Kaylee’s shining spirit is captured in this limited-edition, hand-painted, animated maquette, designed by well-known artist Adam Levermore-Rich, creator of the Blue Sun Travel Posters and the best-selling Battlestar Galactica Propaganga Posters.

The stylized statue is a delightful melding of Kaylee’s two seemingly contradictory aspects – engineer savant and girly girl. Smiling blissfully, the sculpted 4.75-inch maquette portrays Kaylee in her mechanic’s coveralls (complete with teddy bear patch), holding her trademark rainbow parasol and standing in her work boots on a black resin base.

Only 1,500 limited-edition "Shiny" maquettes will be made, after which this design will be retired forever. Shiny is the first in a series of QMx Little Damn Heroes™ Animated Maquettes, celebrating the spirit of Serenity’s crew (and perhaps a couple of their most noteworthy enemies, as well.)

Only $49.95, this ultra-shiny, limited-edition maquette goes on sale at 12 p.m., Pacific Daylight Time, September 15, 2008, right here.
