Hmm so the heads should be finished in the coming weeks, Chris mentioned mid March.

I do like hearing that news. And Chris if you are nearing completion, do share some pics.

 

[SpawnFan]

Indeed, I wanna see!!

 

[samueljd]

You and I both. I'm sure these will look great!

I'm confused. I thought I was already on the list for one head each of Captain Kirk, Spock and McCoy. I want to be sure to get in on the "pre-cast" discount of $20.00 per head.

Chris, would I just pay you one shipping fee of $5.00 for all three head sculpts? Please add me to the list. I will try to pay you soon. I just want to be sure I am on the list. I really thought I already was.

Assuming you want holes drilled in the necks, it's actually $80 total.

 

[JediMike71]

Yes, I do want the holes drilled into the necks. I'll PM Chris again about this.

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am leaving next Monday for HongKong. I will be seeing some samples of our orders. If pictures are available, I will post them here!
I might be able to visit some figures factories too! This is going to be interesting, get to see action figures in REAL ACTION (how they are made)!

Fantastic dude!
Hope you have a good trip and I'm looking forward to seeing pics.

Hello everyone,
I met with the agent today, and he informed me that the prototype of the uniforms should be available by April 1 (I might be able to bring back 1 set of 3 uniforms). The only problem is the boots. The production company will try to make the boots as soft as possible. I'll see what they come out with and start from there.

Soooo, it's mid-March

For what it's worth the sculptors who did the Scifimetropolis prototypes told me they have been commssioned to do more characters. The effort to obtain licensing and produce figures is still hitting a wall, so this may end up being a private group thing. Still interested in seeing the clothing samples.

That's an artist for you. They take as much time as is necessary in their mind.

 

[Ironman1188]

Its like a race, heads or uniforms first??

 

[samueljd]

I think the uniforms will win.

 

[Ironman1188]

I think the uniforms will win.

Which is really sad considering I think Trek was one of the early commissions for heads and the unis started much afterward and required nanjin to make 2 trips to the orient.

 

[yruh8n]

Maybe we can petition Scifimetroplis to give up trying to get a license for their prototypes and start selling castings of those heads? I know the sculptors are into doing a LOT more classic Trek characters for their own collection.

 

[Ironman1188]

Or at least get them to part with their Elvis, Jolie,RDJ and Batman sculpts!

 

[SpawnFan]

Soooo, it's mid-March

Yeah where is Chris....

Ladies and Gentlemen:

How are these?

I will have uniforms sample on around April 2.
