Nacelle figures seem to be more in the Super7 Ultimate scale range than Legends or Classified. You can find pictures of Archer out there that show this, though I had some trouble finding them again since I'm terrible at searching X (Twitter).
I'm waiting for wave three. I may just stick to TOS with this line but I hope there releases for TOS characters after the main crew aren't sporatic.
Wasn't Year of Hell Janeway also in this wave, and Nog too? I am only interested in those and of course T'Pol (was never a TOS fan so the movie stuff is not something I care about). I really hope they start releasing some less weirdly episode specific stuff soon, like a full TNG, DS9, Voyager cast, and recurring characters like Barclay, Q, Gowron, etc. I know their reasoning is "those had releases before" - yes, but those old toys were terrible. I never bought a single one because their face sculpt barely resembled the real actors.
This "naval Trek" line leaves me cold too, I found that scene silly in Nemesis too (or what it Generations, I forget). Pity because I would like that holodeck arch that comes with Geordi.
And really, Bem? People have been waiting literally since the 60ies for figures of M'Ress and Arex, Nacelle. And this is your first TAS figure? A guy who appeared in one, not very good, episode only?
They need to get their act together because I expect most collectors think the same way, and they need a wave that is all winners and gets them high preorders.

I am pretty sure they do, you just cannot see the ball joint due to the way the lower legs are sculpted.

If it were 6" I'd get it just for the Geordi head, holodeck and I guess to make a generic 19th century sailor (I'd probably sell the body for customizers). The price is decent for what you get but the subject matter (other than the holodeck arch) is so out there I have no place thematically that I would want to display it

Regardless of any of the line's other problems, I don't think anyone can complain about the value for the price when it comes to accessories! Between the Holodeck arch and the Genesis device, they're not shortchanging us in that regard!
Ive ordered a couple of favorites like the Romulan Commander but Im really hoping to see Klaa, Kruge and Chang which DST never did. Nacelle has Valeris already so its a start. Now a whole Klingon Bird of Prey crew?....oh my.

I like how they did Captain Janeway
Well, okay that's really neat.
It'll be interesting to see if Lucy collectors pick up on this 2-pack. Personally, it sounds great to me - I still remember that Gene & Kirk 2-pack with the captain's chair that was floated decades ago that never got produced and thought that would be a nice addition to the collection. Honestly surprised they're not going with a figure of Lucy wearing a Starfleet uniform like that photoshopped one of the godmother of Trek. I wonder if this tooling will give them a base for an Edith Keeler down the track...
