He shaved! It's not Mego without classic Spock in the mix.

Awesome! Hopefully the wide release figures have their phaser belt under the shirts, like wave one has them.

I'd like a Mr. Spock. My childhood Spock and Kirk beamed away a long time ago, but I have a repro Kirk and Uhura. And Sulu now too. Would be great to get Spock and his classic blue shirt into the crew again.

Too bad he doesn't have an episode specific outfit. This was the perfect time to make an alternate outfit to add to the collection, instead of the same old, same old.

I need the same old same old, so I'm good with this.

Lots of people will buy regular old Mr. Spock, i think he's evergreen.

Yup. Chief among the reasons that I skipped the mirror set is that I wanted to secure a classic Kirk and Spock before I started worrying about variants.

That’s a nice Mego-y likeness.

[Hedji]

Oh please include a Tarantula with Peter Brady.

[mego]

hahahaha. That tiki idol!! Really fun and funny accessory... love it.

[LonnieFisher]

Well, Greg is going to lose his shirt to Weird Al when I get him.

I just think a new outfit would sell to people who won't buy the new figure because they already have one like him. I've seen a lot of comments about people not getting something because it's just like what they have in their collection, and don't need another. Once again, this wasn't a complaint, it was an observation by somebody who cares how well Mego is going to do. Sure, people will buy it, but would they have bought more if he was wearing something different. The rumor is that Kirk will be wearing a different outfit from all the other regular figures that have been produced over the decades. Seems like that will sell way more than Spock wearing the same blue shirt. For me it's the difference between "I'll get one." and "I'll buy a bunch!".
