I'd probably get Kirk and Spock (both original and new) at least, and definitely TNG if they decided on that too...
I may go for older version of Kirk. Kirk 2 in1 with removable hairpiece and police uniform and BAM... Kirk and TJ Hooker

Wrath of Khan would be the best way to go for Hot Toys.
It's still the best Star Trek movie IMO
I don't see why they'd release figures from a 25-year-old movie when a new, very popular, one came out just last year.
With Trek, there's just too much source matieral. You'd need Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty and Sulu just for starters. If you branch into TNG era, you're looking at 10-15 figures minimum (Picard, Riker, Data, Worf, Geordi ... etc., etc.). That's even before getting into people's niche favorites -- Q, Locutus, 7 of 9, Lore, Rand, Gorn, Khan, Nero, Borg Queen -- and costume variants.
It may just be too much of a commitment. Even the most die hard are unlikely to spend $3000 on Trek figures -- and I'm not sure Hot Toys wants to embark on such a spree of figures.
Selfishly I hope HT doesn't even consider Star Trek figures.
Is that what those are? Drove me crazy every time I watched that movie.
Yeah, you'll notice at the beginning his ear is fine, then it's messed up later. There was a deleted scene where the Narada crew were captured by the Klingons and interrogated, and Nero later uses the same technique on Pike. I loved the look they had for the Klingons, they were somewhere between TOS and TNG but more..."evil" looking and with colored eyes.
I'd love to see the Borg in JJ Star Trek. Afterall, in the backstory, isn't Nero's ship modified with Borg tech?
Yeah ST II will always be my favourite Trek film. Its beautiful. As iconic characters go, Shat, Nimoy etc in that era's outfits are iconic.
Horner's 'Battle in the Mutara Nebula' from Star Trek II sums up all of Trek for me. Amazing music, it really brings that feeling of space adventure together.
