    Scotty's Collar?

    I haven't got My Scotty & Keeper Sets yet from My Friend...but I just saw one in Newberry Comics...Man, are all the Collars messed up like that? I don't understand...Kirk, Spock, McCoy were all fine...what happened to Mr.Scott?

    As soon as I saw your post, I knew what you meant. Every pic I see, Scotty's collar is jacked up. I have my fingers crossed for my set, coming in the mail, but I am expecting the worst.

        Remain calm - all is well.

        I got several cases of Scotty and the Keeper and on the vast majority the collar
        is fine. Sometimes the collar is kept down by a spot of glue - if the assembler
        forgets to do that, the collar may pop up.

        I saw one yesterday that had the collar problem and I put the tiniest dot of
        fabric glue on the underside of the V of the black collar and held it in place
        for a second or two. All better.

              I guess it'll be a lot harder if you keep your figures still sealed in the plastic case...
              I have all the vintage ones loose, and I'm keeping the new ones sealed...

                I open almost eveything. I can't help it. I have a mixture of new and old. That Klingon was looking anxious so I opened him.

                  the exact opposite of what I am doing

                  When this Repro Retro Cloth project was announced, I put my originals away for good.

                  EMCEs I take out, pose all over my house, get extras to customize, in general, ENJOY them.

                  The Doc specifically made the cases to be reusable, so all my EMCE figures get sealed up tight in their packages again.
