    EXO-6 Star Trek "General Discussion" 1/6 Line

    I wonder if there's a second motivation to starting off the way he did. Yes, smaller characters would allow testing the market, as well as allow smaller batches to be produced to test the production capacity. But I think it's also increasing interest. How many people out there (and of course we...

    Someone above did. Said the eyes were beady. Personally I agree with you.

    Funny, I like it for the same reasons you don't. DSC is tiring with every moment being universe-changing and intense. Oh, and every intense universe-changing moment centered around this one ship and mostly one person. It's unrealistic. Plus, as a father of young kids that I would love to watch...

    WHOA. Sorry for contributing to something that went that far. Didn't even realize. Must've missed something.

    There's a difference between QC issueS and ONE QC issue. Let's talk about Janeway's wrist plugs til the cows come home. That was an across the board issue with every figure. But this was one incident as far as we know. There's a significant difference between the two. Sounds just like you're...

    So making a mountain out of a molehill for no reason that I can see. Making the company aware of a problem so they can fix it is good. They did fix it. It's no longer a problem. So why keep poking at it? I don't get the need.

    OH this is a really fun question. So far, if I'm correct the only one I've skipped is Burnham. Both because I don't care much for DSC and because she looks a lot cooler NOW in the 30th C uni. 1. Sisko. I don't see the complaints about the headsculpt some have had; I think he looks perfect. And...

    The funny thing about the two left feet issue is that the person who had it asked about it on FB, got an immediate reply from CS, and was very happy with the service they received. It's OTHER people pointing at it and making a big deal.

    1/6 POTC - SWToys x Tough Guys FS046 Lord of the Caspian Sea (Barbossa)

    I bought this as fodder to fix up my old Rocco set - still think that sculpt is amazing when painted well. Now I'm thinking I may not be able to use too much - oh well. I've done worse. The had looks nice, and the yellow sash is a definite upgrade.

    Quick question for those who know: How long has it taken on average for Sideshow to ship EXO-6 figures compared to getting them directly? I know it's a while, I just don't know how long, because I've always bought from the source. The reason is because I have a bunch of leftover rewards points...

    EXO-6 Star Trek "The Next Generation" Figures

    Thought I'd share a little project I've been working on. This is a 3D Print kit of Q's chair I picked up on the EXO-6 Collector's Facebook group, but is also available on eBay from user 3DTrekker. It's a pretty great kit - the front pillars are held on by magnets, and it was clean and neat. The...

    Oh they'll do it. 100% sure. They redesigned the green wraparound for ONE episode. They redesigned the Monster Maroon for a couple of scenes and they didn't have to. They'll definitely do it. Plus you know this crossover is Kurtzman's baby and will have a lot of eyes on it. They'll want to do it...

    I will agree that they don't translate well if you imitate them perfectly - BUT take a look at those FC uniforms - they're missing a LOT of the texture of their live action counterparts. The quilted shoulders, the zipper on the turtleneck, even the combadge is simplified. I'd imagine when they...

    EXO-6 Star Trek "General Discussion" 1/6 Line

    My gut tells me it will be Saru, and that it'll be a fast shipper like Burnham, already in production. On FB he mentioned something about TMP Kirk being ready to go, but waiting on Shatner's approval for likeness. I assume that he wants to release TMP Spock at the same time so that's holding up...

    Nanjin hinted on FB that Saru's preorder is coming up very soon, and that Sisko should arrive before the end of August, and that he "won't be alone," implying that another DS9 character will be up soon (assumedly Quark).
