Very sad news, like the pic. As much as I’d prefer the Robin Curtis version as a figure - I’d be down with this look too.

Rest in peace dear lady.

For the record, I never liked Kirstie Alley's Saavik, I much preferred Robin Curtis.

For the record, I never liked Kim Cattrall's Saavik. I much preferred Kirstie Alley and Robin Curtis. I lamented the move away from the half-Romulan angle that could have made Curtis much more interesting and a longer term prospect as a character. Catrall has all the emotional range of a half Romulan but none of the ale.

"Cry havoc, and let slip the Dogs of War."

This is wonderful if we do get General Chang.

He sure seems tall and thin for a 1/6 rendition the 5’ 10” Shatner. Will Spock be taller ?

The EXO-6 body is a little wonky in proportions. I don't think it's particularly skinny, but the pelvis and thighs are very long so everything from the waist down is oddly proportioned leading to a tall or slender appearance. You should see how noticeable this is on the Mirror Spock figure.

Am I missing something? Cattrall didn’t play Saavik…

It’s a pretty common mistake, oddly enough: people thinking Valeris was Saavik. If I remember rightly, the original character was intended to be Saavik but they changed their minds.

How to annoy Star Trek fans

Might be a reference to how it was supposed to be Saavik in the story betraying her crewmates as a member of the conspiracy. Two explanations have been given over the years: Either Alley/Curtis was not available and they were reluctant to recast yet again……or Roddenberry vetoed the idea of one of the established good guys turning bad. Depends who you ask. So they created a new young Vulcan female to fit the story.

 

[davejames]

Probably for the best as I can't imagine either Saavik behaving the way Valeris does in the movie.

 

[superdoug]

Well I am happy they didn’t turn Saavik bad. I liked Alley & Curtis. I preferred Curtis but would be happy with either or both.

I would not put it past a half-Romulan who saw her friend get murdered, but that heritage was never made explicit in the films.

If her and Kirk had a scene bonding over their shared grief toward the beginning of the movie, only to find themselves on opposing sides in the end, that would have packed a punch.

Looking forward to the Saavik figure. If they do not get around to Valeris….no great loss for me.
