Looks really good! He better come with a rapier!

This hs need some tweeking. Please QMX get this right.

Not quite right...

 

[screamingmetal]

Upon a closer look, he doesn't look as perfect as most of the other OS figures. I hope Sulu gets a revised headsculpt.

 

[GeneralZodLives]

If he wasn't wearing that uniform I wouldn't guess it was supposed to be Takei.

 

[Star Puffs]

I agree. He looks spot on in the first shot, but markedly off at other angles. I want him to be as good as Kirk or Spock when finished.

Edit: Thank you GeneralZodLives for all the great photos.

Yeah, Sulu's HS needs tweaking.
But, in this day and age of dwindling resources and escalating prices, I think I'll stick to the three kings.
Except for the new Uhura, I jut need to have a Zoe Saldana figure in my collection.

 

[Ex-Parrot]

Agreed. Bones and Scotty I'm definitely down with, but having seen more pics now, Sulu could definitely do with a bit more work. Particularly around the eyes.

The face / head is too long, could someone do a manip of this sculpt swished down a bit

Totally agree, and maybe if he has less pronounced upper eye fold it might make the figure looked more like him.

 

[Gates70]

That looks really bad.

 

[Marine Boy]

Did a photoshop tweak, eyelids softened, hair blacker and head height reduction.

The mouth is definitely off. The eyes are still an issue. He looks like he just woke up, looks tired.

I think the sculpt is pretty good, although George's top lip is wider even when he is serious. This looks a bit pouty. I'm in for the whole crew for sure.

 

[greatlakes6]

I agree on the lip, but take a look at the iris (eyes). In the actual picture of him, you can see most of the iris, but in the sculpt, it looks like a good portion is covered by the eyelid. Makes him look sleepy.

Are there any plans for Chekov? I'm having a hard time justifying purchasing Sulu without him. How about a two pack with the helm and navigation console?

I'm sure if things go well there will be. I consider Sulu is a domino figure, for most getting him means also getting Chekov, and then after that why not Uhura too? So I am trying to resist picking up Sulu and starting the dominoes for all of them. Thankfully, Sulu looking a bit off is helping me resist.

How about a two pack with the helm and navigation console?

Cool idea, but I don't think that will happen.
