Where we find out that Worf's grandfather was as good at being a lawyer as Worf was at being chief of security.

have the new Klingon ordered but too bad the head is separate from the neck peg.
Looks like both colors are not matching well.
Wondered why he couldn’t have the head with neck as one

Hmm, yeah good point. The neck-head transition does look odd. Maybe that necklace/chain posed a problem with a one-piece neck-head?

Remember this is “once in a lifetime opportunity” to buy a Klingon according to the CEO
. Unsure if it is his sales pitch but each time a preorder comes up, he tells everyone how well they are selling but at the same breath tells everyone not to buy if they don’t need which is counter productive if you ask me.

I think one thing it might do for his customers is set the realistic expectation that they can't afford everything. I've seen a lot of folks bail on lines as a result of getting "too far out over their skis". I'm lucky in that I've only ever been interested in collecting the original crew, but even I worry about how affordable this line will be once those offerings start coming out hot and heavy.

Yea one of my friend bought 300 figures in 7 years and suddenly realized he cannot do it anymore. Kind of like a toy addiction he couldn’t pulled out and when he did he was $10,000 in debt. I do see many buy every figure that comes out from EXO which is silly.
I do plan to buy every TOS related figure but I don’t fall for the sales pitch that I must have every figure in ST before they are gone forever
Yeah paying that Kruge invoice was pretty painful.
Pull that d'k tahg out as soon as possible!!!!!
Yes it was but it was Kruge. I don’t see myself buying more than 3-4 villains tops so it was painful but I know I won’t do it often. Kruge, Kahn & a Gorn will most likely be it for me along with the main crews of TOS, TNG & movies although even that may shrink depending on what pricing does. I just had to say no to some LOTR figures and I never thought that day would come but as much as I want InArt’s Nazgul on steed it’s too much for me to justify for what it is.
...and also prosperWaiting on these two to go with my QMX crew...

Paid off Kruge. One of my most anticipated EXO figures. Did it with PayPal pay in four.

That's what I'll be doing. Kruge is one of the last expensive pre-orders I have until next year. Everything until then are in the $200 range.
I can imagine that TOS crew should be in $200 range.
But as far as WOK crew, probably not. Especially with the "Monster Maroons". Even more with the away team jackets.
Kruge and Locutus were up there price wise. Spacesuit Worf will probably be the same if not more with the bells and whistles included. Especially with the leg attachment.

I'm just talking about my 1/6 pre-orders in general, whether it's EXO-6 Star Trek, Star Wars, Batman, etc. I agree though that anything from TWOK will be just as expensive if not more than Saavik. I'm only collecting the OG crew movies and TNG. I know the plan is for the main 7 crew to be released as they appear in TUC which would look awesome but I'm also hoping we get some other film outfits like Spock's bathrobe outfit from the end of III and most of IV (similar to how TMP McCoy's outfit looks I guess). I also only order the barebones versions of these figures. I don't need extra outfits, away jackets, lab coats, etc.

I can only see Khan reaching Kruge-level pricing goimg.forward. Rooted hair & detailing. Star Trek costuming is pretty basic across the board. TWOK Kirk/Spock/McCoy will be the same as Savvik.
Getting that rooted hair right will require the wildest stroke of luck. Better start looking into a hair dressing course.
