Saving the galaxy makes you a hero, it doesn't necessarily make you a good captain. Officers should cut their teeth on smaller vessels first.

This is an irritating trope that seems to have grown to appease the instant gratification generation. Still Seven had served on a vessel for several years so would only need officer training. Not as silly as NuKirk being put in charge of a heavy cruiser instead of just receiving a commendation...

Nice! Although I also want the obscure chappy villains. Pyro! Pyro! Pyro!

Coooo! What's the new Hot Toys announcement?

Maybe Nacelle will. I mean they are doing Peter Preston...

I got Pabs Customs to do one for me.

Making a bit of progress on my TMP crew. The guy doing the uniforms has got very confused about the ranks but I will worry about rank and department colours when I get to the end! The Arcturian is hopefully going to get some security armour at some point.

Beast doesn't have a body or uniform yet.

Here is my WiP placeholder Havok. Pabs Customs did the head for me. It's fractionally too big compared to the other figures so if anyone wants to order one, it might be an idea to downsize it a tiny bit but as Havok will be behind my core X-Men, I think he'll be fine...? It's balanced on a...

Yeah, trolling trolls seems to be his main hobby. Well, that and feeding corvids. Still, it's never bothered me. It's his sandbox and without him, there isn't a sandbox. He can do what he likes and I can buy what I like. I also think a lot of this is hype.

If he wants to use the gorn as a popular opener to swell the chest for other less popular characters, I can see some logic in that. But there would be no logic in restricting membership of S31 in that scenario. He might let everyone join and then kick people out for rules violations, I...

They are probably apples and oranges, requiring different skills, different factories, different materials, with the latter taking up more resources that are also needed elswhere.

My understanding is It's the manufacturing costs because it has a bespoke skin I suppose. It's too costly to produce in large numbers, presumably because its price point means a lot of people who claim they are interested will bow out. I think he caught a cold with Seven, who was arguably far...

I suspect there could be corporate reasons why he's doing it, to hive off a part of the business that is riskier and will carry almost no profit. It simply will not have the funds to meet general demand and will be hand to mouth. I suspect he's actively seeking to discourage people who might...

Well, I guess it's working. They seem to have our attention. That gorn is sweeeet.

I guess it will be a mad rush when things go live.

It need not have been beat for beat the same. Spock might have persuaded Saavik to see the error of her ways. Tbh, Saavik should have been in STV too. Perfect way to explore her heritage.

They are clearly taking a leaf out of Nanjin's book. Start with unusual, less popular characters, that nobody has, and work up. This is an intriguing start. I was planning to stick with 1/6, but I can see me buying at least Valkris, Preston, and Sulu. Also, based on the line up, Rand from...

He has some great memes!

I loved the movie but more extra versions of Deadpool and Wolverine are the movie figures I am interested in the least!
