QMx to Debut First Firefly 1:6 Scale Articulated Figure at Dallas Comic-Con

LOS ANGELES — May 15, 2014 — Quantum Mechanix Inc. (QMx), a leading sci-fi and pop culture collectibles company, plans to unveil the first in a new line of realistic 1:6 scale figures for cult classic TV series Firefly at Dallas Comic Con (May 16-18).

Featuring authentic likenesses, screen-accurate costumes and accessories unique to each character, the QMx 1:6 scale articulated figure line aims to deliver the most detailed replicas of the Firefly crew ever made.

The debut figure in the line, the 12-inch-tall Captain Malcolm Reynolds, can be previewed at the QMx booth (#1227) during Dallas Comic Con in Dallas, TX. Features include interchangeable hands, screen-accurate brown coat, holster, and boots made of fabric, microsuede and simulated leather, functioning buckles and buttons, and Captain Mal’s must-have accessories: a PAL communicator and his trusty pistol.

A special version of the figure available exclusively from QMxOnline.com will include the Lassiter laser pistol accessory with an extra hand to hold it with.

“Fans have longed for a quality line of Firefly figures for some time,” said Jared Chapman, director of product development at QMx. “From real, working costume details to incredibly accurate likenesses, we think fans will be blown away with what they’ll get from QMx.”

“Firefly has always been our very favorite property,” added Andy Gore, CEO of Quantum Mechanix. “Creating best-in-class realistic articulated figures for Firefly has always been a dream of ours – because the best is what this show and its fans deserve.”
