Hey, folks:

I DL'd the leeetle, teeny, tiny pic and blew it up as far as I could get it to go and still be any semblance of viewable. I made it lighter, too (and some other stuff).

It's ~100KB, and I posted it in the Blue Sun Room, here:
http://www.fireflyfans.net/sunroomitem.asp?i=2698

If nothing else, you can see some of the details of their wardrobe. Like: Kaylee appears to be wearing a hip-hugging velveteen bellbottom, Zoe's got a holster for her sawed-off carbine, 'Vera' appears to have gotten a facelift and sumpin's up with Jayne's natural...

Hopefully, someone like 'tash will come along and pick up the ball I fumbled in his general direction, and do a proper job of enlarging and enhancing this only promotional photo we've had from the BDM. I just don't think there's enough pixel depth to retain sharpness in an enlargement; but, I'd really like to be wrong...


(Re-) Touchingly,

zoid

P.S.
Would somebody please kick the studio in the shins and get some promos released? Pretty please, with toner slathered all over it? I mean we've still got 5 months to go, with no Firefly. Couldn't somebody toss us poor dogs a bone, fer chrissakes?!

Hey, anyone else notice that Wash is packing heat now?

Harken: "Seems odd that you would name your ship after a battle you were on the wrong side of."
Mal: "May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one."

Wash has packed heat before. In "Heart of Gold," if nowhere else....

Yup, he surely is.

We used to have knowledgeable firearms aficionados hereabouts who might have ID'd the pistola just by looking at the grip; but I reckon they've all buggered off...

v/r,
zed

looks a lot like a .357 to me, or even a beretta 9mil

Thanks for that Sir Zoid.

Hey, Wash's got a gun. That's a little unWash-like. Just for promo purposes, I hope. I don't think of Wash generally putting much belief in guns.

Jayne's piece has gone and got slickified and compacted. Hmmmm.

And yeah, Kaylee's lookin' hotter, with the hip-huggin' non-overalls style, everything a cool, hip 26th century mechanic should have.

Enjoyed that.

Well, I certainly know nothing about guns other than the M-16, except to stay as far up-range of 'em as I possibly can, preferably by a couple of zip codes.

But, the grip appears to have finger grooves in it and be made of medium brown wood. The angle of the grip to the body of the gun (almost perpendicular) reminds me of the old German WWII machine pistol you sometimes saw in films.

Of course, it's kind of hard to speculate on the gun when it's in the holster; could be almost anything.

...which is why men wear pants...


Disarmingly,

zoid

thanks for the great info and for the blow-up of the crew. I was looking close at Wash's gun too and noticed that the holster is rather enormous for the size of the little, wooden, cane-like handle. It might be some gun that has a huge barrel or perhaps even a flare gun. waddaya think?

that would be the Luger, zoid....the pistol grip is at a a steeper angle than that in the pic, as well as a smaller stock. the luger also was gray and black, never brown

may even be a "western" type pistol like mal's, though smaller....without a good look at it, it's hard to tell for sure
