If you use some hair product that will keep hold the shape of the hair and control those stubborn strands.
I do think if the hair had been entirely sculpted it wouldn't have made the sculpted eyebrows and goatee stand out so much, but it also would have severely restricted head movement, so I can understand why they didn't go that way.
Thankfully the rooted doll hair at least has the right shape to it, and isn't straight and overly stiff.

I probably would have preferred an entirely sculpted head only because I think it would have been more accurate to the character than "doll hair." Unless one takes the time and has the talent to give him the correct cut and perm, which I think would be a tall order for most folks and could end in some funky looks. And the sculpted hair would look better with the facial hair as you said. But I doubt that I will be getting this fig. so just my fart in the wind.

For those of you who feel like Exo-6 figures just aren't expensive enough collectibles, may I present this:

I would give my left nut for the DS9 shooting model. But I don't think my wife will go for it.

Yeah there's a lot of amazing stuff in that auction. I'm really tempted by those original TOS bridge panels, but I'm sure they'll end up going for several thousand each.
It's amazing how crap some of the real props are compared to some of the hobbyist things...
I mean most of it is made for low resolution, blurry TVs. Even looking close to that DS9 model and it's so... imperfect...
I actually would say I'm not impressed by a lot of it. But I'm not someone who would attach any more personal value to anything if it was used in a movie, had autographs, etc. I want the things in my hands and to look and feel the part as close as possible. I want to be fooled into thinking it's real.

From Nanjins Wastebook There are 5 phases for 1/6 Star Trek. We have completed the first 3 and onto Phase 4 since ENT Hoshi pre-order.
In Phase 4, we will be offering characters/figures that have very limited audiences.
DO NOT bad mouth about these characters/figures because without them, twok and TOS will die in mid-way.
We must prevent this from happening. My only solution is to produce these less than ideal demand figures.
Giving up Trek will become harder and harder to resist in the next 2 years. I have foresee these difficulties years ago. They are unavoidable.
Personally speaking, the next 2 years will be the most difficult time. I have to very creative with a lot of impossible things in the eyes of 1/6 producers.
Phase 5 is to prepare my exist from EXO-6. It will begin after Sept 08, 2025.

So, I get the feeling we probably won't get TOS and TWOK...

Cryptic as always.
1 preorder a month. My head is spinning from the pace.
I don't think that will happen, but it does start to give me pause about buying anything else. I don't like hearing things about lines possibly not being completed, and TOS and TWOK are all I have been waiting on. I was also just a bit put off by Shaw coming out in front of Saavik. Us TOS guys have been waiting a long while to see figures.

Guys, I cannot see him leaving by Sept 2025. Suspect it is another Marketing/Sales pitch at its best to possibly stir up demand for some less in demand figures EXO must sell?
But if he is leaving, will all the TOS/ and or TWOK figures be released and shipped by Sept 2025? Does this mean a TOS/TWOK will be released close to each month on preordered?

I think a couple of Wrath of Khan preorders would go a long way to easing my concern. I thought his initial plan was to make these close together due to the fabric being consistent.
Nanjin could certainly put up niche characters like Weyeon and established characters like Riker in between Wrath of Khan.
I marvel at my Voyager set and look longingly at my incomplete Deep Space Nine and Next Generation. I am hoping the photon torpedoes start up soon and we close further lines and move onto new ones.

Personally I’m still of the opinion it was dumb to dump basically all the big TOS/movie and TNG figures at once given those are what a lot of people want most.
They could have staggered things out better instead of the mindset of “making hard decisions and what brings you the most smiles” or “making people regret passing”. Like he knows what he’s doing but doesn’t really care.
Not saying it had to be all big hitters right away but still not the best balance.

To be honest, I Never heard of any company in the same breath tell its buyers “ you need to make hard decisions and or you will regret passing when they are sold out “ until he started the pitch. LOL
I stand in salute in him getting the line restarted but I guess where it gets silly is when he tells everyone he is leaving, he will be leaving, the continued sales pitch about you need to “ make hard decisions.” I didn’t know Trek buyers need someone to tell them what they can afford or not afford unless most Trek buyers have a mind of a 10 years old

Yeah, I thought the same thing. Except the word, "silly" is not the one comes to mind. Maybe some other, more colorful adjectives?I stand in salute in him getting the line restarted but I guess where it gets silly is when he tells everyone he is leaving, he will be leaving, the continued sales pitch about you need to “ make hard decisions.” I didn’t know Trek buyers need someone to tell them what they can afford or not afford unless most Trek buyers have a mind of a 10 years old
