Very sad news, like the pic. As much as Iā€™d prefer the Robin Curtis version as a figure - Iā€™d be down with this look too.

Rest in peace dear lady.
 
For the record, I never liked Kim Cattrall's Saavik. I much preferred Kirstie Alley and Robin Curtis. I lamented the move away from the half-Romulan angle that could have made Curtis much more interesting and a longer term prospect as a character. Catrall has all the emotional range of a half Romulan but none of the ale.
 
He sure seems tall and thin for a 1/6 rendition the 5ā€™ 10ā€ Shatner. Will Spock be taller ?
The EXO-6 body is a little wonky in proportions. I don't think it's particularly skinny, but the pelvis and thighs are very long so everything from the waist down is oddly proportioned leading to a tall or slender appearance. You should see how noticeable this is on the Mirror Spock figure.

Am I missing something? Cattrall didnā€™t play Saavikā€¦

Itā€™s a pretty common mistake, oddly enough: people thinking Valeris was Saavik. If I remember rightly, the original character was intended to be Saavik but they changed their minds.

How to annoy Star Trek fans :lol

Might be a reference to how it was supposed to be Saavik in the story betraying her crewmates as a member of the conspiracy. Two explanations have been given over the years: Either Alley/Curtis was not available and they were reluctant to recast yet againā€¦ā€¦or Roddenberry vetoed the idea of one of the established good guys turning bad. Depends who you ask. So they created a new young Vulcan female to fit the story.
 
Probably for the best as I can't imagine either Saavik behaving the way Valeris does in the movie.
I would not put it past a half-Romulan who saw her friend get murdered, but that heritage was never made explicit in the films.

If her and Kirk had a scene bonding over their shared grief toward the beginning of the movie, only to find themselves on opposing sides in the end, that would have packed a punch.

Looking forward to the Saavik figure. If they do not get around to Valerisā€¦.no great loss for me.
