Thank you! I'm very happy with him. I'm looking at both the reproductions of the TOS crew and the TNG crew. Sulu and Chekov are going for a lot on eBay right now, sadly...
Both of the modern line Romulans are very high on my list of ones to get. The Romulans are probably my favorite "enemy alien race" in TOS. I hope to learn a lot more about toys from before 1980! 80s and 90s toys are something I'm already extremely knowledgeable on, but 70s toys never interested me until I finally watched Star Trek during these past few months for obvious reasons and began researching Star Trek toys.
I was going to collect the 5'' Playmates figures from the 90s initially, then I found out how expensive the TOS crew from that line are and decided against it. I found this Mego McCoy for a price I thought was decent and picked him up after fawning over him for a week. I think my boyfriend got a bit annoyed. He's a huge TNG fan, but he isn't a toy collector. He does think the upcoming TNG figures look neat, though.
Sounds pretty good to me! I honestly thought my McCoy had repro pants and the seller was lying when I bought him, but then I got him in hand and compared photos. He is actually entirely original vintage accessories and clothing, despite my early doubts. Point is: I don't mind repro parts.
