Best products from r/Stargate

I posted about this for someone last year so I'm going to repost the info but update it a bit:

I'm going to assume you are in the US.

Here are some fun things at various prices:
A British company, Big Finish, does Stargate audio books - these are original stories not just rehashes of episodes, and they feature the actors from Stargate. Some of them are less than ten bucks for a new Stargate story read by a Stargate actor!
Here they are on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=big%20finish%20stargate
If the boyfriend prefers paper books, here's a really fun story with the original SG-1 team. Cheap, and a good light read:
http://www.amazon.com/Stargate-SG-1-Barque-Heaven-SG-11/dp/1905586051/ref=pd_sim_b_14
At www.stargateprops.com you will find all kinds of cool stuff: props from the show, some of them very affordable like the stuff on this page:
www.stargateprops.com/catalogue/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=22&cat=%3Cb%3EStargate+Props
The same people sell autographs from the Stargate actors and ALL of the money from them goes to charity. Prices vary, but there are Richard Dean Anderson autographs for $50. Every Stargate fan loves RDA! Amanda Tapping only costs $25, and might be a good choice for a guy.
I know the guy who runs this company, he is friends with many of the people who acted in/worked on the show and I know the autographs are genuine which is not true of many "autographs" on eBay.
If you want a nice little thing, there are metal keyrings on eBay in the shape of a Stargate, I've had mine for years, love it because the ring makes it easy to fish out of your pocket.
Hope that helps...

With Memorial Day right around the corner, look into Stargate Atlantis on Amazon. About 3 or 4 years ago I got the entire series and a bunch of special features on DVD for $30 + shipping because of an amazing Memorial Day sale (Amazon's advertised regular price was $120). It wouldn't surprise if similar deals occurred this year.

After doing ~2 minutes of searching on just Amazon, I found these:

https://www.amazon.com/Stargate-Atlantis-Complete-Joe-Flanigan/dp/B01578RC5A/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1495880441&sr=8-2&keywords=Stargate+Atlantis

https://www.amazon.com/Stargate-SG-1-Complete-Contiuum-Bundle/dp/B01578RC3C/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1495880429&sr=8-4&keywords=Stargate+SG-1

https://www.amazon.com/SGU-Stargate-Universe-Complete-Season/dp/B004TJ1H3C/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1495880618&sr=8-2&keywords=Stargate+Universe

https://www.amazon.com/SGU-Stargate-Universe-Season-1/dp/B00402FGE4/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1495880618&sr=8-4&keywords=Stargate+Universe

Before shipping it comes out to $150.37 USD. That's an average of less than $10 USD per season, to say nothing of getting Ark of Truth and Continuum thrown in there as well!

Knowing online prices can change more than gas prices, I found all of this at 4:20 am, Mountain Time USA, May 27, 2017.

Best of luck and I hope they only get cheaper. It truly is a pretty great deal I think. Check further over the weekend in case it drops even more!

Critique mode enabled...

The sense of perspective in the lower half of the work is outstanding. Really conveys a three dimensional space. The unrealistic anatomy of the shoulders in the top half pretty much throws everything off.

Placing your hand over the top half will give the impression that you're looking at a full 3D render from a mid-level game engine or something. Moving your hand to the bottom starts a weird session of chanting "Liefeld" over and over should you expose the image to a comic-book fan.

Think of how his collarbones would have to be positioned for us to see the patch on his right (our left). Look at how close that right shoulder is to his chin. It's not totally physically impossible for someone to get into such an extreme pose, but Teal'c is no contortionist. I'd recommend picking up a copy of Dynamic Figure Drawing by Burne Hogarth. It is the bible of drawing heroic figures in great poses.

Hi,
i have a question..
is this boix good? (GERMAN)

http://www.amazon.de/Stargate-Kommando-SG-1-komplette-Continuum/dp/B008RHGC7S

it has everything i want and is cheap (47 euro ~)

but the responds say that the menu as well as the box itself is fucked up or something.

does anybody have this kind of box and can tell me if its good
or does anybody know a different box (series, movies, ep1x01 final cut, bonus dvds) it doesnt matter if its more expensive i just wanna enjoy ! :D

thanks for reading and help in advance!

10 seasons $9.99 = $99.90 (maybe there's a discount if you get multiple)
All 10 seasons + Continuum + Ark of Truth = $94.03 (+ shipping; free if you have Prime) [https://www.amazon.com/Stargate-SG-1-Complete-Continuum-Bundle/dp/B01578RC3C/]

Not only do you additionally get the two movies, but you also get all of the bonus content (Director's commentaries, etc.), on physical media that you can always rip (takes a few afternoons) if you want digital access, and can then view it whenever you like regardless of Amazon's then-current business practices.

The Amazon Video offer now is better than it was, but I'm hesitant to say it's a good* offer.

Ah, so you would want the Olive Drab - Sage field uniforms or the Olive Drab Garrison Uniforms.

For the field uniforms, those were custom made for the show.

They were Olive Drab WEP G-8 in Ripstop Cotton. The pilot episode had them in surplus Sage WEP G-8s made of shiny nylon. A bit warm for casual wear.

You can buy the Nylon WEP G-8s around the internet but to get cotton ripstop, you're gonna pay a pretty penny for them to be custom made.

Next best, in my opinion is the standard Olive Drab BDU jacket. Looks about the same, except it does not have shoulder pockets or a pre-sewn velcro pad for patches. If you have any sewing skills, you could add those yourself.

The pants are standard BDU Cargo pants in Olive Drab.

The vest was a Blackhawk Omega Utility Vest:

https://www.amazon.com/BLACKHAWK-Omega-Tactical-Medic-Utility/dp/B001NDSZ2S

Any tactical boot in black would work. They Used Magnum Stealths though IIRC.

https://www.amazon.com/Magnum-Mens-Stealth-Force-8-0/dp/B002KQ5WLO

This one is pretty good: https://www.amazon.com/Stargate-SG-1-Richard-Dean-Anderson/dp/B000TJBNHQ/ref=sr_1_28?ie=UTF8&qid=1497446943&sr=8-28&keywords=stargate+sg1

I have it. It comes in a box that looks like a chest. Its quite flimsy though, you have to preserve it carefully. But the DVDs are nice, they have directors commentary and some TV ads for the show. Plus a few interviews and behind the scenes.

The best edition of the original 1994 movie is the 15th anniversary Blu-ray from 2009, which is region-free. The 20th anniversary BD from 2014 is apparently a reprint.

Seeing as your Xbox One X can play 4k, you could also cross your fingers and hope that StudioCanal will release a 4k version for the movie's 25th anniversary this year...

https://www.amazon.com/Children-Gods-Parts-1-2/dp/B000IOI0PK/

SG-1 Seasons 1-7 are only available at DVD resolutions.
SG-1 Seasons 8-10 are available in 1080p but there are no Blu-rays.

Atlantis is all available in 1080p and there are Blu-rays.

https://www.amazon.com/Rising-Part-1/dp/B000ICKPOQ/

Universe Season 1 is available on Blu-ray and Season 2 is available in 1080p on Amazon only.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B002UWH8P6

There might be other streaming services but Amazon is the best video quality and I would recommend them for the seasons that aren't available on Blu-ray that have HD quality. Of course you can find them in other places as well...

Haha, you can get it off Amazon

You can also get the two Stargate SG1 movies on blu ray but I'm not sure if you'd be interested in the adventures of a bunch of humans in another galaxy ;)

Holy crap, my G5 lasted only 1.5 years or so (the wire at the base of the mouse becomes frayed, same for the G9. Then I got the G700 and that thing has lasted for years since it has a more resilient removable wire.

The G400s and G500s are the latest iteration of the G5/G500/MX500/MX510 shaped gaming mice if you happen to be seeking another one.

The G600 is a good MMO mouse if that's what you need, and the G700s is a superb gaming mouse if you need more buttons but not a number pad adhered to your mouse (the G700s runs data off a wired connection when plugged in).

Can't vouch for their other models aside from the MX Master which is more of a work mouse, and a great one at that.

Yeah. IMO, buy any green bomber jacket off Amazon and apply these patches. (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XDLBGGT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_N0aaCb4VQB1CA)

Would look way better and probably be better quality.

Off amazon for like 5$. Time will tell on quality.

I have 1-6 like that. But I ended up getting the boxed set when Amazon put it on sale. I highly recommend it! (It's now under 70 dollars)

Atlantis is also a bit cheaper.

However, they can get cheaper.

I got these a few years ago and have been happy with the packaging. Although, I miss my big box sets that I gave back to my dad, its nice to have a consistent looking collection. The Atlantis blu-rays are great. There will never be SG1 blurays unfortunately. Hopefully, one day they can be remastered but thats unlikely.

SG1 DVDs

Atlantis Blurays

Sure - but just a warning - the Offworld jacket is the most expensive part of the outfit. It's a USMC WEP style jacket, which is typically a Nylon shell and goes for $200+. On the show, however, they used a RipStop material, which isn't as shiny. If you don't care about that, you can save yourself about $100.

I followed this Costume Guide

• Sage Offworld Jacket & Patches (the OD ripstop material is apparently hard to find so Sage is the closest thing)
  
• Sage BDU pants
  
  • You can get a combo deal on the Pants & Jacket here
    
  • You'll want some sort of belt for the pants
    
• Condor Olive Cap
  
• P90 Sling
  
• Airsoft P90 Replica
  
  • You can get a cheaper one on amazon, but it doesn't look as realistic
    
• Magnum Response Boots
  
• Blackhawk Omega Tactical Vest
  
• Black Utility Belt
  
  • This goes on your Tactical Vest and the Drop Holster connects to it.
    
• Drop Holster
  
  Things left for me to add: (I haven't bought them yet since I spent enough on the costume already and feel good where it is)
  
  
• Casio Digital Compass Watch
  
• Rubber Tactical Knife

I live in Norway, and I recently bought the blu-ray set from amazon.co.uk. I didn't have any problems getting it shipped here, though I did have to pay for 'forenklet fortolling' and 'mva' when picking it up at the post office.

Link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/ft7/Stargate-Atlantis-Complete-Season-Blu-ray-Region-Free/B005EPD93G/ref=nav_signin?ie=UTF8&qid=1484059877&sr=8-1&keywords=stargate+atlantis+blu+ray&

Edit: Unless things have changed in the past month, the UK version of Amazon is a great place to get stuff that isn't otherwise available in Norway, especially considering that the UK is in the same region (Blu-ray and DVD-wise) as Norway. You can even use the same login details as all the other Amazons. :3

It's pretty cheap on Ebay.de and amazon.de and not the co.uk versions. I was thinking of buying the complete boxset but didn't.

On amazon customers state that they feature english audio, even though the discs are from germany.

Here is the amazon page

I think it's worth it over the offers on the UK sites, even with shipping.

Just a FYI, both SG1 and SGA are available on dvd, they even have new slim packs now.

The entire SG1 series can be had for $92 on Amazon currently:
http://www.amazon.com/Stargate-SG-1-Richard-Dean-Anderson/dp/B000TJBNHQ/ref=sr_1_2?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1344267135&sr=1-2

The entire SGA series can be had for $54:
http://www.amazon.com/Stargate-Atlantis-Collection-Torri-Higginson/dp/B002EL4RLQ/ref=sr_1_3?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1344267135&sr=1-3

I had this exact conversation with a friend. Which is why I'm buying this for my car instead.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001HX868M/ref=mp_s_a_1?pi=75x75&qid=1345090387&sr=8-1

I can't see them investing the money for it unless the stargate command thing brings in enough revenue and interest. Time will tell if they put more effort into it. A few years ago I figured a blu ray release was not going to happen any time soon so i bought the collection off amazon. I dug up the Link it includes all of sg1 + the movies. Ark of truth and continuum do have a blu ray Combo Pack for about $10 but i think the collection is cheaper by at least $10-$20 if you parted it out.

Your comment just made me realize I have the whole bluray series that I opened once but never used because of Hulu and Amazon. I should probably sell it to someone who would actually use it.

FTFY

It's also on sale in American Amazon too.
EDIT: DON'T BUY THIS, JUST DID THE CONVERSION AND THE CANADIAN VERSION IS WAY CHEAPER.

I'm not in Canada so can't confirm myself. That said, the Amazon.ca listing says that it does have french audio, but there are a number of reviews which suggest this is not the case. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B004WJT5H4/

I got this and this. I get more convenience then any other viewing method with none of the moral/legal issues.

So I was searching around for one to purchase online and I Found one!

Go to https://www.rothco.com/category/rothco-jackets and grab your Stargate jacket, and then get the patches here. https://www.amazon.com/Stargate-Uniform-Costume-Patch-Miltacusa/dp/B06XDLBGGT/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1543515433&sr=8-1&keywords=stargate+patches

That works out to $100 for the whole series.

Amazon has the complete series for $55 right now. And it's a nicer package. I hated the full-size DVD boxes, especially as they switched to thinpaks in season 7 or 8.
