    I really don't like the material used for the costumes....Seems like a Fiber Cloth (Not as Pliable as the original WGSH costumes)...And the bodies are too brittle near the joint area (I popped two knees off by slightly trying to pose to kneeing position)...Range of Motion is very limited with these bodies. Inconclusion, the costumes are made from Cheap material and the bodies are limited with ROM. Mego would have to resolve the body and costume issues in order for me to justify more purchases. Overall, they look great in the box (for displaying only)...However, the excitement ends when you remove the figure from the box to pose ...In my honest opinion.
    P.S Why would Mego give us "Cheap Stick On" emblems...they should've been done like FTC did with this Superman emblem (Print on)...last picture below.

    Hoping that (if) 50th anniversary Star Trek figures are released, any or all body/joint/clothing issues will be solved…keeping fingers crossed.

    We haven’t so far so I doubt it. A new figure can be cheaper than buying a body plus shipping.

    Are we able to buy fixed bodies by themselves without buying the toy again?

    Like the 4th rolling change on these new bodies

    Any kind of fix where your carving makes for a non-mint figure. A rolling change is being made to the figures at the factory so you might want to just wait for that.

    Otherwise, trim away some of the upper calf around the joint.

    Top leg part or bottom?
    That seems to have potential for a non-mint figure if gone wrong. :-o

    Yeah, trim away around the back of the calf.
