Excellent, I don't have a a Sulu or a Gorn, so I'm really excited about those two. I also don't have an EMCE Khan, although I do have an EMCE Spock. Still, buying both together will still be cheaper than trying to buy an old EMCE Khan on ebay by itself, so I'm not complaining about having an extra Spock. Heck, I'm sure I'll find a good use for him.Comment

I'll be getting Spock and Khan, I only collected the EMCE Trek aliens, but not Khan since I have a custom of him
but it's time I got EMCE Khan and a nice consolation extra with the added Spock, which works for me, since
if I had a choice of which retro EMCE Trek crew member to get, it would be Spock.Comment

Since I managed to pick up the entire EMCE run from the first time around (late as I was), I'll be waiting to see if there are any new offerings this time around.
In the meantime, if the heads are unpainted this time, I'll pick up Mirror Kirk and Spock if they are offered. And of course, I'll be keeping an eye out for a proper-sized head Pike that hopefully also has a non-painted face.
Wish List: Nurse Chapel, Yeoman Rand, Harry Mudd, Trelane, Cheron, Talos, Vina (or maybe instead the late and dearly beloved Yvonne Craig's Marta!).

I got most of the original run late too. I am missing The Salt Vampire, Pike and the Mirror figures. I probably could still get the Mirror figures cheap, but I skipped them. The Salt Vampire and Pike are the two I could not get at a decent price. The most I paid for was Chekov at $35, I think. And I found a stash of $20 Sulus at a local store, which I used to trade for the other expensive ones I needed
If The Salt Vampire and Pike are offered again, I will get them. Since they are releasing Sulu and The Gorn early in this re-go around, that should help drive sales for more re-releases.Comment

Had them all, but they were all stolen during a move. Really hoping to be able to reacquire them all again, but without having to virtually sell a kidney first. The prices I'm seeing on these new preorders are wonderful, so my dream of reacquiring everything I lost is far more realistic - provided the line does well enough on this outing to justify the reproduction of everything from before. Fingers crossed.MY GODS ARE SMALL...... AND PLASTIC!Comment

That pre-order Gorn picture is of the original prototype, if memory serves me right?
My ideal Gorn would have a bulkier build, so unless he gets a make-over (and with better arm protectors), I won't get another.
But I'm happy to get the ones I'm missing now.
Still want the Mirror Mirror ones, as well..

Sorry MMM, was just attempting to answer your question. Gorn Captain is correct in saying the pic is the original prototype; I'm acquainted with the member who assisted with it. Since you have an original release, a comparison with that figure's photo on the back and this thread's pic will show that they're the same prototype.
As with FTC, there's some variance between what we sometimes see and what we get.
GC, the original James Brady custom Gorn used a Hulk body for a more imposing build. The arm guards on the production figure were indeed disappointing.WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.Comment
