I want to make it clear to those who are a bit bummed or irritated nanjin gave them false hope, that if it were not for nanjin there would be no 1/6 Trek figures. He?s the reason why QMX was able to get them made.
Could we really even say the line was mishandled? I mean they maybe waited a bit too long to try and get the reissue of Kirk and Spock out there which would get traction on all of the other figures they overproduced probably due to the fact that there was a lot of extra people only wanting Kirk and Spock and not anyone else.
Also they had that issue with the Picard neck stains which surely ate into their profit.
But chipping away at the OS crew is admirable as is getting in a villain.
If they can?t make profit on these do we continue to believe that they would want to make them? It?s only logical to think not.
If you ask me the whole Trek franchise and all the merch is always mishandled. The biggest ball dropped look no further than the new movie series where the first was a hit and it took how long to get a sequel out there? Nobody cared. At this point Chris pine is a couple years shy of looking like late shatter anyways.
Trek has failed since the 90s to truly penetrate the zeitgeist of our culture.
I got one am thankful to QMX for taking a risk on these and if all I get from here on out will be uhura and checkov I?d consider it a massive victory even if most of my favorite trek characters are actually from TNG and id want them way more.
Thanks Ray.
Actually, all those teases SUPPOSED to create excitements.
Checked my post earlier this year. I provided a complete plan that can reestablish pre-order procedures, line-up flexible production (at any quantities).... many many more, and went really deep into the entire operation model...
Did I tease much of twok Spock, Kirk, Khan, etc?
They were supposed to be a Nuclear Bombs. If all my teases out there, suddenly you guys could preorder twok Spock right before 2nd Lot Sulu (2nd lot Sulu had a timed schedule of release)
Then hit TNG group with an Atomic bomb - Data or Geordi....
Followup with a Master Kill - Surprised release of TMP at sub $150 price point.
With all the above, TOS continues its venture on it's own schedule, using Uhura to spear head Mirror...
Who was ****ed by False Hopes and False Planning? Or False confirmations?
Me, and ALL those who supported me in the production sector.
I was thr only ONE who did ALL I could to keep 1/6 Trek going. I even took up customer service when someone came to me with a problem....
