EXO-6 Star Trek "General Discussion" 1/6 Line

[silentrepose]

Watch what happens when Exo-6 puts the Discovery figures up for pre order later this year. You'll see lots of people suddenly talking badly about the show instead of talking about the figure regardless if it's a good or bad figure. They won't even care about the figure, they will just seize the chance to bash the show.

I'm actually really dreading when that happens. I can already see how unpleasant the forum will become at that point - and that's so unfair, really, especially with all the hard work that Nanjin and his team have put into the figures (which look very good, especially Saru).

I'd love to be proved wrong and see a good healthy discussion of the DIS figures without any bashing of the show... but I won't hold my breath.

We can all start by only talking about what we like and ignore what we don't. Nanjin will make all of it. There are plenty I will buy and plenty I will pass.

I'm willing to bet no two people will buy all the same figures, and that's okay. We all have different tastes and all of them are valid.

…Can we see some new figures or continue with the hints please Nanjin?

Personally, no news is good news, unless he wants to offer some projections. If that TMP 2-pack hits suddenly it will make a tough decision come to the fore, unless I can see a finished TWOK Spock concurrently. For those of you who want it all, I don't see how you're going to do it.

I cannot wait to see these other two, no pre order figures announced.
The excitement levels are about to cause a warp core breach!

I'm with you, the TMP Spock sculpt looks amazing, so if I skip it I have to gamble that the TWOK is just as good. If I get it and everything else keeps coming out looking just as good, I end up with a room full of Spocks! And of course this same dilemma applies to many characters.

Guess I'd just have to rent a storage unit

One false move and that’s what may truly happen

The sculptor and i spent hours in discussing each Spock.

Cage Spock, a puzzle look.
TOS Spock, emotionless
Mirror Spock, deep calculated
TMP Spock, processing look. Spock didn't know how to respond to his old colleagues' welcome.
Twok Spock, the need of the many outweigh the need of the few expression. Notice this Spock has a closed jaw as oppose to the other Spock, very relax (teeth weren't touching).

Godwin had the intention to inject these expressions into the sculpt. Whether we could bring them out are different part of the story. Godwin sculpted these heads with "feelings and emotion," a true artist attitude. He kept going back and refine every single Spock for 3 years.

Looking forward to an eventual Unification Spock.

If you do a Star Trek III Spock, we need this expression.

Your post reminded me of this

Looking forward to the eventual images, hopefully can make as many of these work for me as possible.

We need a Voyage Home Spock too!

I would actually totally take this Spock over a Voyage Home version, as it's a much more interesting look and this robe is a whole lot cooler than that simple white bathrobe he wears in the following movie.

Honestly I would be happy to get either and I agree that this one looks more interesting but if I was forced to choose I would actually choose the Voyage Home complete with “headband.”

There was another version of Spock that was never shown to anyone. It was for TMP Spock.

In line with TAS (those who like canon), a half naked wildman Spock. I believe that was the look during his pursuit of Kalinahr but were never used.

David Fein, the producer of the 4K TMP showed me this Spock at Chicago. I almost wanted to make him. Good that I became rational a few minutes later.

But if I do make this Spock, I would call him Flintstone Spock or Jurassic Spock or Tarzan Spock

Hippy Spock to go with hippy McCoy

My personal opinion, I would have liked to see a bearded Spock leaving his Kolinahr period
