    Finally a Star Trek Horta!

    Yeah, I know, it's a big ugly blob, but I really loved that episode!

    Art Asylum and Diamond Select Toys have announced a new line of Star Trek Select figures. The first figure to be released will be Mr. Spock. Check out more info below: For years, Star Trek fans have repeatedly opened hailing frequencies, demanding the return of 7-inch Star Trek figures — well, Diamond Select has heard...

    Ahh...the alien meatloaf.

    It's odd that it's never been made into a toy of some kind.

    Oh, and you're in good company: "Devil in the Dark" is Shatner's favorite episode.

      Too bad it doesn't look removable from the rock it is on.
      It's all good!

        Yeah... it's not removable and about half the right size, but to be fair it's just supposed to be a diorama base. Like, it's weird Spock won't have knee joints, right?

          I love DITD, but I would have preferred a toy that the EMCE/Diamond figures could interact with.

            That is so cool!
            That was totally one of my favorite episodes as a kid. Not only did gooey monsters fascinate me, so did those weird fake rock caverns and tunnels.
            That's neat Spock has interchangeable parts too.
            If it's not outlandishly expensive, I'm gettin' it!!

              I looks wrong. The original was a man underneath which made it kind of oval shape. This looks more circular. Otherwise, you could make a latex mold of it and cast as many as you need.

                  Same! I really am looking forward to this line. I hope for at least 6 or 7 releases across time periods...

                    I own enough of DST's Kirk & Spock action figures, but I really hope this opens to the door to releasing some of their cancelled characters like Seven of Nine with her alcove or Nurse Chapel with a sickbay diorama.
