Ilia was a horrible character made in that very Gene Roddenberry kind of way where he has a bit of a hippie mentality was was somewhat of a perv.

Honestly, TMP is exactly what is generally claimed, kind of a bad movie. Even the big obsessive hardcore fans can't agree. ;)

I do like a few of the scenes. But Star Trek kind of grew beyond Gene. Like how Star Wars grew beyond Lucas and became something else he couldn't master and kind of shouldn't. It's good he was forced out of later Star Trek TOD movies.
 
I received my McCoy yesterday and opened him today cuz it's my birthday

Happy Birthday and many happy returns!
I also received him yesterday and I'm impressed with the overall figure. In my opinion the earlier observation that the beard adds enough to the head size that it may look out of proportion with Kirk and Spock is an illusion. With the trio in place they look great together! Of course, I do wish the three had their uniforms as that was how we saw them for the bulk of the film and they never interacted with each other while dressed as they are. However, that said, I also appreciate the thought that this is how w e first see them in the story.
Now we are all ready for their characters in their uniforms.
Cheers!

Thank you. I feel the same as you, I would much rather have them in uniform. However, I am very grateful to have them just the way that they are. Iia as V'ger probe would have been nice though.

I actually watched TMP on Friday night. Got a new OLED tv for the basement living room. Beautiful 4K transfer.

It’s a shame we got the outfits we did for the figures. I think Kirk’s is fine since it’s a uniform at least. Spock is wearing something that’s fitting to his character. McCoy though.. his outfit is a look he wears so briefly and doesn’t fit much about his character.

Why does Spock look the shortest of the three when in reality Nimoy was taller than both Shatner and Kelley?

I partially agree with you- but with a TOS, a TWOK (& maybe a TUC ) McCoy coming, it's cool to have some fun with a Disco McCoy! It's novel, unique & amusing amongst the collection! It's a figure that arguably requires a sense of humor to appreciate 🖖🚀

Nah.. the idea was Nanjin had it in his mind to do the three characters as they first appeared in the movie. On the surface that might be a cool idea, but in practice the results are mixed.
