At STLV it looked like they had already near production looking Torres and Neelix.So are the Voyager humans dispensed with yet? Are armoured Hirogen and Undine in the pipeline?
Nice! Buster Kincaid and Captain Proton.Arrived by Royal Mail this morning. Again Looks much nicer in hand,View attachment 659653
I don't think that I've yet seen a photo of the head sculpt that has blown me away. There appears to be something off and I'm not sure what feature it is. I'll know soon enough, as it should arrive in the next day or two. (Hopefully...)
I think you'll like how he presents when you get him, FaF, especially with the group. But I've never had an experience quite like this one before. I'm not saying the likeness is spot on or anything like that (I believe I gave him a mid-level C in that category, and I stand by that), but I've never had a figure who's appearance in person is so difficult to capture in photos. I think I finally got reasonably close, but it took me forever.
I think your 3rd picture there looks pretty good to me in terms of likeness. The rest do seem a bit off the mark though to me. RDM has one of those faces without a lot of distinctive detail to draw your eye to... I dunno, he's evidently a hard one to nail.TP arrived just a moment ago and I rushed to check it out.
There were three things that stood out to me:
1. That Voyager uniform is so classy and EXO-6 really does a fantastic job in recreating it all in 1/6th scale.
2. The figure is quite tall. I checked in Google and the actor is listed as 6' 1" tall. As long as all of the Voyager figures are made to the correct scale with each other, I'm fine with how tall he appears.
3. I don't see Tom Paris / Robert Duncan McNeill in the sculpt. I went in with an open mind, expecting to say, "Ha! There he is!" but I just don't see him.
Perhaps it is the paint apps. I just noticed in Knazzer's fantastic photos above that there are some copper highlights in TP's hair and the facial paint apps look quite good, especially with the blue eyes. Mine don't appear to have the extra detailing in that regard.
Here are some award winning photos of my own showing exactly what I see. I even tried playing with the lighting to provide some slight shadows and such, in the hopes of bringing out what I saw.

This is the first figure in the line that I will try to do a paint touch-up on, especially with the hair, which appears as one solid brown color. The eyes will also be addressed. I'm just not thrilled with this figure. He went straight back into the packaging and put away for now.

Thanks for sharing them!
But do you see Neil Patrick Harris!
Well, whoever he is, we know he's got a figure made of him, so he's officially....But do you see Neil Patrick Harris!
