I'm actually increasingly excited by this line. Yes, it's weird random assortments with deep cut characters, but I kinda love that. I just hope that the line endures long enough to get us the big guns as well and complete crews. The figures look great from what we've been shown so far, though I'm still interested to see how the scale really works out once they hit production - are they going to fit with Star Wars Black Series, the old DST line or neither? They've said 1:12 scale but that's always a bit of a ballpark rather than a guarantee...
Anyway, I really hope it goes well, that it gets listed at BBTS so us international fans can get them more easily and that they're successful enough that they can then get the Secret Hideout era license too. Much more excited about doing the SNW and Picard s3 crew in this scale/format than the psuedo-neo-Playmates style Master Replicas is doing...

I am interested in Year of Hell Janeway too since she is important enough to buy multiple versions of. But the Generations opening's stupid royal navy holodeck ship costumes? Will Worf come with Doctor Crusher to throw in the water? Kinda silly.
Wet Worf variant ?

No lies told, my friend. They are indeed baffling choices. I would say instead of 18th century naval uniforms, I'd have had Geordi and Data in their Sherlock Holmes outfits. And if Kirk is gonna sit on ANYTHING, it has to be....the Command Chair from the bridge of NCC-1701.
Just now, Atlantis said:Okay I'm glad to see they're looking to deep cuts, but, dang. One-off costumes like what Geordi and Worf are wearing? Good to see the WOK excursion jacket, but on Carol Marcus?? And I love seeing Kirk in that vest, but including the horse- especially if he's non-articulated- is just not working. If they wanted to do a 2 pack I'd have gone for Kirk vs. the Gorn instead. Anyway, not for me, but sure someone will be into this.

I hope they make it to wave 3 then. I really want Seven of Nine.

Dill Weed.
Uh huh huh huh huh.
My biggest takeaway from those photos is Kirk comes with a jar of dill weed.

Old Kirk is nice, though the horse seems to be a stationary piece.
I always liked Valeris too, will get her.
And Bem is a great idea, I hope he can be disassembled into 3 pieces like in the cartoon. I was not sure they could do Star Trek TAS, but apparently they can! Hopefully they will not waste time and do Arex and M'Ress. It is criminal that two such important characters never have gotten a toy before.
Would be nice if we got the Kzintzi as well, but who knows where the rights for that species is now. (They were taken from another sci-fi series)

I'd order them gladly, but even though I have an US address I could ship to, I cannot see the Star Trek toys from Hungary - even if I use VPN. I registered, I can log in, but international orders are apparently impossible. I mailed them and Nacelle said they are looking into it, but it has been like a month now and nothing happened.
