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

[Heavy Metal Spike]

Think it will be a while before we get a generic alien figure… I’m hoping for some borg at some point down the line - now those would sell no problem.
Others though, I’m not too sure…

I meant generic Andorian rather than the specific character "Shran" from "Enterprise".

[Pauln6a]

Hmmm. I was hoping for a generic STOS Andorian not an Enterprise Shran figure. I will pass if that's the case.

I will buy Shran and pop him into a new uniform. Approximately 1/3 of all aliens look like Jeffrey Coombes anyway.

 

[afaninfull]

Wow! This is a great surprise.
Hope we get to see Weyoun as well.

 

[Time Lord Collector]

I got this email too. A Shran figure would be cool, need some aliens now to mix it up.

 

[pophoody]

Is it too much to ask for a Voyage Home Kirk (my favourite film because it was the first Trek I saw as a kid on VHS in the late 80s)? I should probably just go for a TMP hey? Or Wrath Of Khan (closer to the Voyage look, but isn't that quite a way away still?)

I'm tempted to try and find a OS Kirk because good old Shatner was HOT during that time, but that's sadly not 'my Kirk'.

Would love some advice. So...go for TMP Kirk? Wait for Wrath Kirk or hope for Voyage Kirk?!

 

[Stryker2011]

Well, it’s entirely up to you, but I’d wait for Wrath of Khan if I was so enamored of the VH look (I doubt we’ll get that anyway).

 

[Ras-al-Ghul]

Looks like Shran to me

 

[MaxGoof]

I can’t see it well enough to discern it’s Shran, but I figure it must be since the social post talks about and links to Archer.

 

[The Count von Curdles]

Shran was the best part of Enterprise. I'm real excited for this one.

 

[Skyroes]

Definitely looks like a Shran proto to me. I wonder if this is part of Archer's landing party that Nanjin spoke of before or if T’Pol and Trip aren’t too far behind. Either way, glad to see some other lines developing aside from VOY.

 

[davejames]

Outfit appears to be a match for Shran, and it certainly doesn't look like the TOS Andorians which would be the most obvious other option.

 

[Holliday]

The nose and hair make me think it’s definitely Shran. Pretty far removed from the TOS Andorian look.

 

[FlyAndFight]

Shran the man!

Bring it!

And make sure he has "PARS" (Parallel Antenae Rolling System)*

100% Shran! Very nice.

 

[Heavy Metal Spike]

Thanks for the clarification guys

So Wednesday passed w/o dropping TMP. Maybe TODAY!
Do ya think ?

 

[davejames]

Wow! This is a great surprise.

I don't think there's any way they could release Shran without also releasing Jeffrey Combs's absolutely best character Weyoun as well.

Packaging has been approved and produced. Admiral Kirk will be "fully assembled" in the packaging next week, so, no, not today, but possibly next week. The wait is almost over!

I think that Weyoun runs into a huge problem because of the show he’s from, though. While Shran is unquestionably the #1 most popular character in Enterprise not on the main crew, Weyoun may not be in the top 5 or possibly even top 10 most popular non-crew members in DS9 with characters like Garak, Dukat, Damar, Quark, Jake, Rom, Leeta, Martok and others in the show. Weyoun would be nice to have, but I wouldn’t give up Garak or Martok for him, personally.

Weyoun would be nice to have, but I wouldn’t give up Garak or Martok for him, personally.

Jake and Quark, while not crew, were main cast, and we know Quark is in the works, so they can be taken out of the equation. Jake will happen. Ezri will happen, too. Count on it.
Weyoun is one of the show's most popular recurring characters among the fans. The top 5 are Garak, Dukat, Weyoun, Rom, and Martok. Nog is also super popular among the fans and may supersede his father on some lists, but you're drastically underestimating the power of Jeffrey Combs as Weyoun. I think Nanjin has said, too, that DS9 was a special case with non-cast characters and that he intended to make more than just a few, due to the nature of the show. I doubt we'll get Leeta, though. Probably not Kai Winn, either, and definitely not Vedek Bareil or First Minister Shakaar or even Jeffrey Combs' other recurring character, Liquidator Brunt.
I'm personally a little more concerned about not getting Damar than I would be about Martok or Garak. Damar didn't appear until more than halfway through the run of the show and didn't become really important until the seventh season, when he became the second or third most important character on the show.
