Can we have the Braben bobblehead for sale again, please?

I'm really regretting not purchasing the David Braben bobblehead when it was available, as IMHO it's the only non-rubbish bobblehead available:

At the time I expected there would be loads more bobbleheads coming out, but all we've gotten are (IMHO naff) non-human bobbleheads. (The helmeted space pilot has no face, and so is of no interest to me. It might as well be a robot. While the Lostwinds bobbleheads are too cartoony for my tastes, plus I have no idea who they are, so they mean nothing to me.)

Alternatively, I would consider buying bobbleheads of (human looking) fictional in-game characters, like say the blue-haired Space Princess (trademark pending).

I wouldn't mind having one of those myself.

For what it's worth, Patreus and Winters already have bobbleheads in the game files.
 
Agreed, still want one too. Too bad I missed it. I don't think we'll ever see it again though. I even think the first one was made without him knowing.
 
To this day i dont know what lostwind is or why the characters are modelled in game but seem very out of place in ED, maybe one day i'll look into it but when i first saw them in store i thought ... eh?

Plus 1 for fuzzy dice and other assorted cortina memorabilia lol.
 
I bought a D. Braben bubblehead as soon as it was sold and I'm still very happy with my purchase !
There is one thing that bothers me though : knowing that there are many CMDRs out there willing to buy their own :-(
Plz FD, make it available again ! It would make you a few bucks really, but it would make some CMDRs so happy !
 
Annoyingly I thought I'd bought this but apparently I had managed to just put it in my basket and not complete the sale.. Did the same with the wireframe cobra. Very, very annoying. I blame beer..

We were supposed to get those. The original marketing material for the bobbles had Denton Patreus all over it. Somewhere along the way, FD got bored and lost interest in them.

Lostwinds is one of Frontier's games, originally on the Wii but later on PC. I think it was quite popular, although obviously not targeted at the ED market.

The fuzzy dice also appeared in one of the pictures of the FE2 novella, Stories From Life on the Frontier.
