Yay for Seven of Nine! Finally a figure from this line that I might consider.

But she's due in Q2? And there haven't been preorders yet?

I'd be interested in finding out who their likeness sculptor is because those are excellent.

Their 3d Printing team may want to clean the mirrors on their printers though

1:12 would be awesome. I would get TNG and Orignal stuff but thats it. DS9 was okay and Voyager was okay also.

It doesn’t look like anyone had a full comprehensive look at the display, so I’ve cobbled together photos and a list of figures from across multiple sites.
Thanks, Joe!

I AM ON CLOUD NINE! I've waited a long time for some of these!

The sculpt for Wrath of Khan Spock seems surprisingly bad, but other versions and characters look TERRIFIC!

I love that they actually gave Kirk and McCoy a bit of a smile, so much better than a dead stare!

If they can hold the price under $200.00, I'll be getting at least a few of these, starting with Kirk and Kruge.

Is there any way to get a 'heads up' for pre-orders?

Addendum: Answered my own question

Wow, they all look great. I might be all in for the movie and TNG eras, Archer too.

How come Tuvok is listed under Discovery instead of Voyager?

Those look nice. Especially like the Wrath of Khan figures.

I've been tempted by Janeway but Seven is REALLY tempting me.

The faces on these look amazing but I'm not sure the outfits are up to the same standard (and the bodies, themselves, I think are relatively simple doll-like constructions).

Still I would definitely buy Seven, Jadzia Dax (ideally NOT in the First Contact uniform), and Abramsverse Carol Marcus.

Captain Archer was a big want...

I actually liked MOST of Enterprise... it's le gold compared to modern Trek.

This line is pretty awesome overall. But that being said, is it just me, or does Bones here look more like some weird Bones/Sulu hybrid instead? I mean, wtf.

If the likenesses looked half as good as the costumes, we'd have something here. Exo-6 just can't seem to nail the faces, which is a pity. I would have at least gone for Seven of Nine if she had a more accurate face. They keep making the noses too fat and it's like they gave up at a certain point trying to make their faces accurate.

They're the only company ever to fuck-up a Spock likeness. I didn't think it was possible.

It's interesting how people can see things in a totally opposite way. To me, the faces on most of these (not all) are the selling point.

The soft goods outfits are awful. You can see the oversized stitching; the thread is visible for goodness sake. My preschool daughter has Barbie/Disney dolls with higher quality, smoother looking clothes.

More Sisko love please. The likenesses aren't the best, but they aren't the worst either. Well, at least not all of them are horrible...

I zoomed in. Yikes. You're right. Let's just say this company still has a lot of learning to do and let's not buy anything to encourage them right now.

DS9 was my fav... for some reason I got hooked on DS9 like no other Star Trek show before or since. Could just be timing though... that just happened to be the Star Trek show I watched at the right time in my life.

But then they'd be $200+ figures.

Don't they cost nearly $200 now? I think they are $190 from BBTS.

12" Disney Store collectible dolls are only about $125 and do not have visible stitching like these.

There's no excuse for the soft goods to not be a higher quality.

You guys are downers, but I concede that you're right: there are problems. The biggest for me is that they appear to have done a poor job with the sculpt of Leonard Nimoy as Spock, arguably the most iconic figure in the franchise. His 12" figure, if done well, would be the centerpiece of my Star Trek shelf. But the photos aren't encouraging. I'll wait to see what the final release looks like and go from there. At very least, I might try to score a Kirk just for sentimental reasons. I used to love Star Trek before it went to shit.
