Who's Mel, is he the butcher from the Brady Bunch?
I can say that they're in the final stages. Production samples are done (with new colors for the uniforms, btw, in response to the blowback), and there's just a few minor odds and ends being resolved. What that means for an actual release, though, I have no idea (IE, I have no knowledge of when they're going into full-on factory production, what the status of the packaging is, etc).
I would THINK that July is an optomistic estimate based on that - but it's not out of the realm of reason. I wouldn't be surprised if QMX really pushed them to be out in time for SDCC and the big 50th Anniversary Trek 'con in Vegas.
Cool. Thanks for the info. July is the estimated arrival for the figs on BBTS. I thought that was looking more and more unrealistic but I had no idea where they where in the process. I would think that QMx would definitely want to show off the production figs at the 50th Anniversary con.
If you want to keep up, friend Nanjin Tam on Facebook (if you have Facebook, that is). He's our very own Nanjin from the forums and he posts update photos from time to time. That's where I got the info from
Not that it necessarily applies to these figures, but it might...I just went through Nanjin's posts, and he said on the 15th that Picard was entering production in "about 10 days," which means he should be entering production any day now. Could that be a good sign for these as well?
Will the EX figures still be going up on the QMX site?Kirk and Spock are still on schedule to ship in July.
