I honestly don’t even remember.. does Spock use a phaser or communicator in TWOK? If not I would guess the figure wouldn’t have them.
If he's going to do the full Undiscovered Country crew I may skip the Wrath of Khan figures. The outfits are essentially the same. I know the actors looked a bit older but collecting both films will end up looking like a lot of repetition of red on the shelf.
I think I might mix and match.
Kirk, Bones, Spock from TWOK.
Captain Sulu from TUC.
Commander Chekov from TWOK (Hopefully with earworm)
Commander Uhura from TUC (Maybe with a Klingon dictionary?)
And a Captain Scotty (With extra padding) from TUC
He's mentioned a few times that UDC will be his swan song, and the full crew will be done.I'm not sure they're doing Chekov from TWOK, I believe they've only ever mentioned (from the main crew) Kirk, Spock and McCoy from TWOK.
I'm really interested in seeing who we get from Voyage Home. I think that might be the only OG movie they haven't mentioned. They definitely want to do Sybok from Final Frontier.
I don't hate either series, they just rank lower on my Trek list of favorites. Trek ranks higher for me then almost every other IP out there and I'd rather rewatch ENT and VOY then almost every new IP show or movie released in the last 20 years. BSG, Black Sails, and maybe Stargate might be the exceptions.Voyager had directives from the executives to be episodic, in spite of the basic premise of the show. Likewise, the Temporal Cold War stuff was basically forced on Brannon Braga from the Paramount executives. Braga was more interested in the story revolving around the Vulcans and Andorians. By the time season 4 came around, Les Monves was in a pissing match with Rick Berman, and Monves canceled Enterprise mostly out of spite.
I don't know of that changes how you view the series, but when I hear stories like that, I marvel that we got anything watchable at all.
Right, I was just noting that we probably won't get a TWOK Checkov.He's mentioned a few times that UDC will be his swan song, and the full crew will be done.
So while not TWOK, we will get all the crew in a version of the Monster Maroon uniforms.
I am trying to persuade him to do Scotty in engineering uniform. He's not a fan of Chekov though so that might be a tough sell.Right, I was just noting that we probably won't get a TWOK Checkov.
I know this may cause some pearl clutching, but I don't knoe if I want to buy TWOK Starfleet figures at all (Except a Kirstie Alley Saavik) if he's not going to do the full poster crew. May as well just wait for TUC. I'd rather have them once and all consistent to 1 movie... I dunno... just feel a little deflated over this I guess.Right, I was just noting that we probably won't get a TWOK Checkov.

I believe Nanjin said there would be 5 TWoK figures- that would be Kirk, Spock McCoy, Savvik & KhanI know this may cause some pearl clutching, but I don't knoe if I want to buy TWOK Starfleet figures at all (Except a Kirstie Alley Saavik) if he's not going to do the full poster crew.

Oh... so there's no full mm crew...at all... for us regular folk? Hmmm...sighI believe Nanjin said there would be 5 TWoK figures- that would be Kirk, Spock McCoy, Savvik & Khan
He also said TUC would be a gift to himself at the end of Exo-6- that might mean he's only making them for himself. Just as some if his protos will go into his private collection, right?
Scotty in engineering uniform !I am trying to persuade him to do Scotty in engineering uniform. He's not a fan of Chekov though so that might be a tough sell.
He already said he's not doing that because of the cost. I guess we settle for Scotty in the vest.Scotty in engineering uniform !
