I think that's a major reach. If I had to guess I'd day three TMP figures and four TWOK figures tops. You're still talking about the same three bridge crew characters in both case and then Khan.
Yes I think it's likely we will only get 4 (possibly 5 with Saavik) TWoK figures. Nanjin has expressed a wish to do the whole crew from TUC. He has stated that female figures are more difficult to produce, so that might be a factor that ends up sinking Saavik.
Yes. That needs to happen. I’ll be ok with just my TWOK figures, but that needs to happen for the fans. Please make it so, Nanjin.
Nanjin seems disappointed that Sulu in VI isn't part of the main crew. Maybe he can be persuaded to include two a two jacket version.
Or at least a series of TV specials. Mind you, with Strange New Worlds dipping its toe into TOS territory, Discovery and SNW having updated uniforms very reminiscent of TMP, and the Roddenberry Archive paying serious homage to the TMP era, it's not impossible that might do a reboot show based during the second 5 year mission once SNW is done (or if Chapel and Uhura follow canon logic and leave the ship) and it's also not impossible that they could finally do a 5 year mission for Excelsior.
I saw that one in my Star Trek facebook group where it was made. It's backwards and should say "five lights" and have four pictured.
That's funny. Looks like sideshow jacked his meme, still has the guys signature in the corner too.
It would be a completely different uniform as even the trousers would be different as they had different coloured stripes.
Oh yes! The stripe down the trousers. Dammit. Nanjin is such a perfectionist. No way would he let that slide.
I think Saavik is fractionally more probable but if they do produce Saavik, I bought a head based on Michelle Pfeiffer sculpt which I was going to use for a custom character. In then end I went a different way but I noted that the head actually bore a fair resemblance to Kim Catrall. So if a Saavik body comes out, a black wig and pointed ears could adapt this head if a down and dirty custom is what you want. She'd have a script accurate uniform if not screen accurate.
It's really hard to know at this stage when no female TWoK era figures have been made. He might think about doing a limited run if all they have to do is mix and match already existing uniform elements. Cattrall is about 5'6" so presumably mid range body compared to Uhura. Saavik, Valeris, and Rand are all about the same height so a mid size uniform could get its money's worth. Chapel is fractionally taller but given that her TWoK era uniform was only a cameo I think her TOS version is far more likely. That said, Nanjin expressed an interest in doing a TWoK era non-com uniform and Rand STIV would be the most high profile version so Rand and Chapel limited runs are not impossible if very unlikely.
