The transparent round thing in the middle of the panel

I’d do the design on a computer, print it on decal paper and put it on a piece of clear plastic tray that comes with Figures.

A McCoy sold for $280 on eBay today. I didn’t even try bidding but should have because it was sitting at that price for a while and there was no bidding at the end. . Ah well, didn’t need to spend that money today.

Was it NEW in unopened box, do you have a link?

The seller says it was opened only to inspect but the figure was never actually removed. Still had the shipper. It was the regular version not the exclusive with the medical tunic. It sold for $280. If you just search eBay and filter to show sold items you should see it.

Saavik!? Yep, I?m with you too. I wanted them all made, but Saavik and Old Khan were at the top of my want list. As a natural troubleshooter, I keep wondering what is it going to take to solve problems and put these 1/6 scale Trek characters in the hands of collectors.

... Saavik?!?! I would have never expected her to be made. Would have bought her though. Any main or main side character from ST II, III or IV I would have bought since that is how I was introduced to Trek. Now I have another hole in my 1/6 Trek collection I never knew I had. I got to say I love how deep you game planned with these lines and how you planned figures geared towards fans of all the different series. I never had the time or opportunity to get into Voyager, Deep Space 9, Enterprise or Discovery and I don?t have CBS all access so no Picard yet but I would have been all in for TOS, the movies and TNG figures.

I would have loved a Saavik to add to my Phase II dream team.

I'm working on building a TOS helm console and I'm trying to find a straight on picture of the astrogation display that is on the pedestal between the navigator and helm stations. Everything I've seen online is at an angle, partially obscured or poorly lit. Anyone know of any good pictures?

Thanks

The fan art section of trekbbs often has digital images of the bridge, although I think the most recent ones are of the movie bridge.

When i was building my own helm console, i ran into the same problem. I have not so far found any usable images, which is one of the reasons the build stopped. I think the only solution is to draw one up by hand on a graphics program and print it out.

I have not been on the boards much lately so sorry for the uninformed question but is this Kirk and Spock two pack on BBTS the ones with the improved bodies. Thanks in advance.

I would have just said yes, but that was too short for the forum.

Ok cool, thanks.

Back before the line got shut down I was holding out for the TWoK Kirk and Spock since that is my favorite Trek movie but since they will never be made I will probably get this set.

Thank you, 16k

I got my set of KnS recently from BBTS and they are marvelous. 100% satisfied.

I'm having the same problem with the helm panel of the Galileo shuttlecraft, so I checked the web. Be aware that only the original shots of the TOS series are valid, any graphics of "experts" or replica might contain errors. Even during the series some instruments changed (on the Enterprise helm, the Galileo, and even the control panel of Kirk's chair!).

So here are some links, one replica, some original
just browse the web yourself or check the episodes on DVD. You'll find!

Oh please, Marine Boy continue building your helm console! Your results were so promising so far!
