Nanjin said Worf’s Baldric is a huge Hangul and not cost effective right now. He’s looking for alternatives.

A lot of what’s being shown are protos. As always Exo6 will improve what we are seeing. Arex and Mress are surprises even if they are statues. I wonder if they will do all the crew from TAS. The dios are exciting. As great as 3dTrekkers stuff is, I’d still rather licensed over 3rd party...

I haven’t even gotten my invoice from KP yet. Feeling like they get them dead last for some reason.

Yeah. It’s going to be like the last one and they won’t say anything. Just hide it in a email showing the instruction manual. Then of course you’ll have people coming out saying how someone who worked in the design says it doesn’t need the support, and they display theirs without it and it...

From what Nanjin was saying there will be a lot to be seen. I do know they have twice the space then they did last year, so maybe a big set up like Chicago 2 years ago.

They actually hit a lot of niche categories. Charlie Chaplin, Toshiro Mifune, Bloodsport, Westerns, Chuck Norris, Twin Peaks,etc. They've defiantly hit upon a often ignored area.

You'd be surprised what people like, miss, and wish they could get in some collectible form.

Nostalgia plays a big part in why these classic designs are still around. It’s something that just isn’t attatched to UM either it’s across most IPs.

FYI I live in Orlando and I’m at all these parks monthly. I’m not saying it’s the Falcon is the same as the OT Falcon. I’m saying it’s the actual Falcon. Just like the Stormtroopers that are there are actual Stormtroopers. Something you said they aren’t. KK doesn’t mandate anything at WDW...

Spock invoices were sent out. Paid mine.

Yes I responded to this part in particular. “From our standpoint, I think we can all say (at least generally here in this thread) that we don't like the update on the monsters.” My “its’s nostalgia” comment was to that part. You seem to think I was addressing you in that statement. I wasn’t...

Lol. What you aren’t getting is that I was talking about today, in my original statement that you responded to saying that it wasn’t nostalgia. It’s pure nostalgia because we are adults all who saw these characters for the first time as kids. Seriously go re read the original statement that...

Theres also an over abundance of content out there to contend with. Why watch this old slow movie when I can watch this new exciting one, or watch this content creator, or play a video game, etc etc. Plus there’s the attitude of why do I have to watch the whole movie when I can just see...

Dude. In your reply to me you said it wasn’t nostalgia and then went and described your feeling which is basically nostalgia. And then you say what I just quoted. Lol. Just admit it’s nostalgia you feel. You can both still appreciate the design and feel the nostalgia. It doesn’t have to be...

You were a kid when you first saw the Universal Classic Monsters and got hooked. That’s basically nostalgia. I’m not saying the original designs were bad or inferior to the new designs. What I’m saying is that for most (and this applies to multiple generational IPs) we prefer the looks and...

I love the Universal Classic monsters, but if I'm being honest, I prefer the Hammer Horror film versions. Hammer Horror were the films I grew up with watching most Saturdays. Ususally with some local TV horror host. I really miss those old local horror hosts. I know Svengoolie is still...

It's nostalgia. I prefer the older looks myself, but I don't hate the newer looks. Stuff has to be updated to keep younger audiences interested. Several will disagree I'm sure, but there isn't one kid in my family or extended family interested in OT Star Wars, or Star Trek pre 2007. It looks...

Have you been to Universal? Their theming is top notch. No reason to think the Dark Universe area will look like something from Spirit Halloween. If you are looking at current photos, well the land is still under construction it's not done yet. In promo material they have talked about the...
