I don’t think anyone else is going to make a 1:6 Scotty. That being said he is a must have[emoji868]

 

[Drake]

The only things I could really see critically about Scotty is that, just like the other releases, you could argue he looks a smidge too old for the TOS era as we saw it, and two, some might not like the stern choice of expression. Personally I don't mind the stern expression at all, and the age thing hasn't been too much of an issue for me based on past figures once in hand and on display, so I'm pretty happy all in all.

Of course the ultimate test will be when I finally get to open the box and see him in person, but right now definitely more excited than concerned, personally.

There's definitely no mistaking who it's supposed to be, I'll give it that.

in hand the extra wrinkles aren't bad i'm sure- it's this or nothing- perfect? of course not

I used inkwash to add slight shadows to McCoy's wrinkles. I thought that deepening them helped the likeness.

Wow, look at how good Sulu turned out:

Scotty Maybe arriving the same time as Santa? Maybe?

 

[Pauln6a]

I've ordered some more tights and boots for my Rand customs and I need a spare Storm for her x-uniform so I'll use her body for Barbie Uhura as a placeholder until next year. Hopefully when Scotty arrives I should have a half decent 8 figures including TMP Rand and Khan.

I also snapped up three Mego uniforms on eBay so I might see how Kirk, Spock, and McCoy look dressed up for TMP.

What have you been using for boots for your Rand figures? I haven't seen anything that looks close on the usual online sources.

The ones I tried before looked good on a Xing body until I used ankle extenders to make Rand taller (xing bodies are quite short). I'm waiting for these ones to show up, though ironically I now think the heels may make her a bit tall. We'll see!

I have a problem. I ordered the 1/6 scale Captains chair direct from QMX and I've had to put two sets of fresh batteries in it since I've had it. They seems to go dead in just a few weeks and that's after I've only played the sounds a few times. Is anyone else having this problem?

Yes. A few of us have had this problem.

 

[Dollmanron]

Is it made to happen this way or is it a manufacturing defect?

Not sure if they are all like that. I bought some rechargeable batteries for mine, after it drained 2 packs of brand new batteries in about a month. I just plug it into the wall, or put the batteries back in when it's picture time.

 

[davejames]

Yup it appears to be continually on and draining power even when the lights aren't activated.

 

[DVD1]

It needs Scotty, badly, to give it more power...!!!

 

[Oxnard Montalvo]

I've never put batteries in mine, I just use the USB. Admittedly that's because I'm so absent minded that I'd probably leave batteries in it until they leak. I've list a few bits of tech that way.

Here you go. Possibly the boots are a bit high but they look OK.

 

[Sybeck1]

Nice What are your plans on her delta?

 

[greatlakes6]

Who has the best price for the Scotty preorder?
