@nanjin Are there going to be more versions of the Anson Mount Enterprise crew in their Discovery show version of black-collared variants? Red shirt Nahn?

InArt vs Asmus is probably going to turn into Hot Toys vs Sideshow Star Wars. Some Sideshow pieces you get because you never expect Hot Toys to get around to it. Some figures you get the best of both worlds through a kitbash of the two releases. Some Sideshow pieces start to crater in value...

I never expected Disney to give She Hulk enough muscles to win a female bodybuilding competition, but I did expect there to be enough for her to enter. The twig limbs on the CGI is pathetic.

Most of my TM sculpts end up staying in the box. That this one is no different doesn’t bother me. I also think the sculpt might suffer a bit from “we need to put headgear on it” syndrome. I’ve always felt a lot of sculpts by HT that are also designed to accept some kind of helmet usually look...

This one is not exclusive and is appearing on other sites. I just ordered from my usual US retailer. EXO-6 is fastest, but they come mailed in bags. Some figures I’ll be going the double -boxed route.

I‘m getting “a secure connection cannot be established“ error.

I think that Nanjin and EXO-6 are going out of their way to make very scene/episode/moment versions of characters. This is different from a lot of other companies that do more to capture the overall “essence” of a character in the sculpt. For example, FC Picard deviates from a lot of people’s...

It is really easy for a collection to grow out of the limitations of the detolf. A cleaner solution is to find a more suitable display case.

I was also sharing info based on item description and my own previous knowledge. I own both prior HT R2 units and the majority of Sideshow’s Astromech releases. As Asta said, the last HT Deluxe R2 has both compartments for attachable arms and the diecast dome. I don’t watch JC anymore and had...

The dome is diecast and gives the HT versions better weight in-hand compared to the Sideshow Astromechs.

Now that this exists, I bet we could see a HT 4-Lom in the near future for no specific reason.

It seems to me that the side pieces of the door could be sold with deluxe versions of other figures. Are they really that much more than selling the deluxe versions of Helms Deep wall pieces? Build-a-dio.

Kit could have easily made $$$ by jacking up the price like everyone else. He’s a collector’s hero for maintaining the price in this environment.

Looks like I also grabbed one. The frustrating thing is that this is a figure I preordered from one of those “other” sites that stopped being reliable this year, so I doubt my preorder will ever pull through. Also got screwed out of my Cajun Card dealer preorder. Lesson learned. OSK is my only...

I had a paint rub issue on the side of the nose on my EMH. The problem isn’t just Picard-related. Hopefully enough retailers complain to EXO-6 about the issue that the box gets redesigned with maybe some extra protective foam.

Anyone know who handles SF packages in the US? I‘m used to most overseas stuff being handed over to USPS.

I think the bigger issue is the added expense of forearm finishing and effectively disguising wrist pegs. The current wrist pegs of EXO-6 figures are prominent when not hidden by the sleeve (many 1/6 scale are). The uniform can just be cut short and stitched in the sleeve for the rolled up...

I’d argue that the rolled-up sleeves of Chief O’Brien in the earlier seasons is his most iconic look, but the exposed forearms are probably too much of a headache to deal with. I must be really out of touch with Trek to think that the uniforms a crew wears for nearly half the show‘s run would...

For the other Starfleet DS9 officers, please consider releasing them with a DX version that includes the peacetime/early season uniform on a second body. Unless you‘re considering second releases for them.
