Star Trek Select Spock

Diamond Select Toys Announces Star Trek Select

Looks like a statue.. Is that an early mock up?

Nope. Click the link for more pics and info.

It's weird, but Devil in the Dark is probably my favorite OS episode, which is why I'm actually kind of tempted to get this. I would prefer a figure that has leg articulation, rather than has two sets of legs, but the figure itself actually looks good. The great looking base helps a bit too. I'll probably wait for a review or two, maybe even an in-person look, before making a decision when it comes to Spock here.

I'll definitely get McCoy when he's made, and there's a good chance I'll get Scotty (though I'm really hoping they delve into the movie stuff, and give us a movie Scotty). I can't imagine getting the entire crew, and I'm not really interested in the Kirk vs. Khan set that's in the works.

Would prefer articulation over swap outs. Playmates made FANTASTIC although out of proportioned figures in the 90's (my father had ALL the original figures and TNG toys and ships), that had some articulation and also looked remarkably like the actors.

As for Mr. Scott, I will ONLY consider it if he is missing his right middle finger. Only for an homage to James Doohan, who was a brave soldier long before becoming a Star Fleet Engineer... and I hope the figure comes with a diorama from "the Trouble With Tribbles"... with an extra set of arms carrying a load of Tribbles.

I don't understand swapping out parts over articulating the figure.
I also don't know of any trek fan who's been "asking for 7" figures for a long time."
Playmates tried that and it failed miserably for them. NECA (I think?) had pretty good success with theirs. But I think these are going to crash and burn harder than the original enterprise and the D, in their final battles.
