    Yes - here's mine:

    The paint job on Spock is HORRIBLE. Hard pass.

      Absolutely, yes.

        These figures are awful! I can't believe they are reusing the awful STTMP sculpts.

          Really wanting to see some 8 inch Star Trek reveals. Not at all interested in 14 inch anything.

            For $20 a pop, they look good to me. Expecting HOT TOYS quality from Mego 2.0 is foolish. At $175 ea, you can get the QMX figures which are stellar. I’m not into TREK to that degree, so these will do.

              I don't like any of the 14" I've seen. I really would love DC 8" figures and more Star Trek 8" figures but these 14" figures are not interesting to me at all.

                Loads of DC 8” coming from FTC. I’m way more interested in the Mego 14” line, but to each their own.

                  I understand about FTC making 8" DC, but they just seem like fake Mego's. I grew up with Mego's,kinda want legit Mego DC figures in 8" scale

                    I'd like to see that Gorn out of the package. Hope it's not a "skinny" Gorn (like the old Playmates Toys version). The packaging says 8"--I guess that's a typo.

                      Hmm. box art says 8 inch bit those are definitely 14 inch.

                        these are clearly prototypes. the heads are re-painted TMP figures, probably because they were zombified. I'm sure the final product will look much better

                          I like the FTC 8” figures a lot and their sculpts are nicer than MEGO. As already said to each their own. I am enjoying collecting both

                            The red shirt figure looks the best. He reminds me of Capt. Pike.

                              If they were gonna use those old heads, they should have put them on WoK uniforms :/

                                Exactly. The STTMP heads depict Kirk and Spock as older, doesn't look right on TOS bodies at all. TWOK would have been perfect with these sculpts.
