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

Wear your tuxedo and sleep over night once and see if you need to adjust your tux in the morning.

Figures stiff like a clay pot, traveled thousands of miles around the globe, then handled by gorilla troops. Com'on, how can we expect the figure outfit (soft goods) will be in perfect shape like a statue?

1/6 scale needs the owner to fuzz around with them to make them look good.

Scarf is a minor issue, “fuzz” with it a bit when you watch Star Trek.

I take realistic achievable comments seriously. I will go to extreme extent to have the issue solved while maintaining your expenditures. Check out what I did with Data shipping box issues, then examine Picard. Better structured and able to withstand 25 LB psi in the center of its maximum surface area (the center front of the packagibg) without changing our cost of production so you don't pay more.

I said this because I want to hear realistic and achievable recommendations.

Excuse me for being blunt. I like to hear genuine complaints or comments that are realistic and achievable.

It is not only the scarf, it is the short neck, the decoration, the stocky chest, I do not understand how you’d cope with those issues by just « fuzzing » around.

I do not order Mirror Spock.

Looks really good.

So I’m wondering how many more variants we may see.

Could Kirk, Spock, and Edith Keeler be on the way from The City on the Edge of Forever? Maybe some of the TNG crew from All Good Things? Sisko and crew from Trials and Tribble-ations?

Seems like endless possibilities, but also a large rabbit hole to potentially jump into.

I was kind of thinking the same thing. It might not be a good idea to start releasing variations of characters before the standard versions have been released. At this point we don't even have an ETA on the other four captains (Kirk, Picard, Sisko and Archer) that were teased months ago. It seems like EXO-6 should concentrate on delivering them before going off in three different directions.

Nanjin- is there any update on the list of upcoming figures that was talked about at one time? For planning purposes that would still be nice to have just so there’s some idea of what’s coming.

OMG my jaw hit the floor just now... this Mirror Spock is freaking awesome! I LOVE it!! An instant pre-order for me. I already know I'll be getting any and all TOS Mirror releases. A dream come true.

Day 1 PO for me too... all I have in my collection is the Mezco 1:12 scale of this figure (that is nice...but it's not 1:6th)

This is the risk you have to take. I said this one year ago. You don't have to buy any, just don't regret the fault you see isn't real at all.

This is the problem with EXO-6, and I have no resources to remedy this unless I increase the msrp by 25% plus 1 year delivery, and no more than 4 figures per year.

This is not a perfect world. We allow the customers to take their own risk.

I think we are doing good as of today.

FYI, I made this body for Spock. If it fails me, then is my fail. I don't like to fail.

So place you bet. Bet on your own assessment or bet on my performance trend.

The choice is yours.

I worked at Vegas too long. Risk taking is already part of me, and also part of EXO-6 because of me Who knows, maybe I purposely show the worst of the figures just to confuse the audiences.

I know is strange. I am strange and I like to do strange things as long as my objectives are met - to make as many good (you might not consider as good) Trek figures as possible in the shortest time frame. So quantity is not my concern.

Mirror Spock is only one Quantum Torpedo. I might fire another one before end of the year, or a full spread maximum yield. Be ready. Decisions will be easy to for some and difficult for others.

ready for more before years end!

I think some will be pixxed with this speed I mean everyone is used to waiting for years if not months. Now we are into weeks if not months. Very drastic to get used too. Needs to time to accustom. But believe me, you will be used to this soon, overwhelming from all directions.

Eventual outcome:

The logical reaction for the collectors to find their refuge in one of the Trek releases that they truly wanted while experience some sorrow in the process. Without sparrow, no one really cherish what they have on hand.

I am being philosophical.

The current business model is the only way to do 1/6 trek beyond 2 years. I have no choice on this. But the tactics are my choices. A bit strange but it fulfill the business model's need because I don't know any other way. I hoped QMx could lead. I failed. Then look at now.

I would agree with you about the red pin being too oversized, but the other issues I think could be solved by simply pulling the tunic down more and tucking in the scarf some more, as it looks like they both might be riding a little high in the pics.

I do order Mirror Spock. Twice.

Fuzzing

Let TOS friends have their fun. Here's a tease for ENT fans.

look at how Kirks uniform responded to the light source directions and intensity. S3 uniform had even more variations.

That Archer tease is amazing. It looks to rival, if not surpass Data's head sculpt accuracy. Wow!

Hot damn, that is a nice Bakula!

Speaking of ENT, it really bugged me how T’Pol had non-Vulcan eyebrows in S1 and S2. If EXO-6 were to go with the earlier look for the figure, I can only dream that we’d get an extra head with proper Vulcan eyebrows from later seasons.

Got it too @ebor.


Left the dagger and phaser holster in the box.

There's two on Fleabay for grabs. Loose without box $70 USD, Boxed $75 obo. Will see how this Thursday goes.
