    The new Star Trek figures

    Andorian and Talosian have been showing up in NY at comic book stores. I've seen them on facebook. I think the Andorian is too dark blue, so I need to open one and paint him a lighter blue and re-card him. I'll also put the Talosian on the "sidekick" body and re-card it. I can't wait to see them in person!

    I ordered them from Absolutely Retro and hope to have them in hand soon. I doubt I’ll make any changes to them though, since I don’t plan on removing them from the card, but I would like to see your upgraded results.

      Mine are scheduled to be delivered by Amazon this weekend. Can't wait! I ordered them back in January.

        He's so much darker that the prototype.

          The Andorian prototype is really screen accurate, except for the brown boots. Why is the factory figure so inaccurate? I will have to be doing a lot of changes...

            I don’t know for a fact, but when a prototype changes that much in production, it’s usually because of a note from the license holder.
            Expectation is the death of discovery.

              What's with the DISCO style package? I was so disappointed in the package I opened the Andorian, only to see he doesn't really move at all.

              Why prototype a new body with issues at a time when just getting this sold seems to be an issue? I really think this Andorian has nothing on the original which was based on an original.
              Also what's with the hard and over sculpted heads?

                The Talosian was better but the amulette thread broke right off
