At best, it depends on the merchant; loyalty points and free/cheaper shipping. Your patience for completed crews is an advantage though. I'm buying on a character-by-character basis so I generally want every order as soon as it drops lol. I waited 7 months post-release to get Capt. Archer via...

T'Pol tease! Considerable improvement over what we've seen before, even blurred. God I hope she goes up for PO soon. Having Archer and Shran already, she's the only figure causing me "oh no what if [random calamity not uncommon to this hobby] happens and I don't get her" anxiety lol

Enough to be worth it? I mean demand for TNG is a no-brainer, but I can't see S1 figures having much of a market beyond double-dippers, or latecomers who missed whatever crew members when they were available the first time around. But, S1 unis are a hard pass for me though (I'd skip the...

Omg when will he stop pushing these horrible unwanted figures on me, I am truly duped and victimized

Weyoun!

It's great when the cheaper option covers one's needs eh? I got away with that on Sisko, but I love the Captain's Jacket option for JLP. I was bummed they didn't do a Captain's Wraparound for SNW Pike as well.

Absolutely. I'm still chuckling about that one dude in the TOS thread calling Trek a "dead franchise". If anything they're risking over-saturation again. :P

Agreed. I would already PO at this point and this isn't even a final.

And the unbelievably asinine suggestion that people are being suckered into buying figures they don't want just because they're not releasing TOS yet. Big Main Character Syndrome energy.

You have a point, which is why I don't get how they keep making new content in the TOS era. However, I think a 1701-G series would feel like a very appropriate direction to go in terms of the franchise's early embrace of generational continuity. New crew, new Enterprise, new century, all on the...

That's exactly what I took away from it. He's just talking about having to absorb the expense of shipping samples back and forth in order to avoid a delay. That's also what they did with the production sample of Odo; He was ready to ship, but Nanjin hadn't seen a finished one yet. They shipped...

...and the Trek stuff was some of DST's better work 😅

Aye, DST Ezri was a chase figure. Intentionally shortpacked compared to the others in her wave, just a lousy trick to pump wholesale volumes really. I was right on top of those on release, but I still missed her. I gave up on getting one for a decent price (the figure itself doesn't even look...

ENT's problem is the first half was basically another 2 seasons of Voyager ("we're on our own out here and gosh there sure are a lot of jerks"). The approach used for season 4 should've been season 1; show us how the Federation came to be. Too little too late as they say. That said, I love it...

I love the morphing Odo, but I'll forever be baffled that they didn't make him so you could stick him IN the bucket. That's the entire point of the bucket!
