Andorian/Spock shipping

The waiting for these figures is killer. I know the Romulan will be even worse.

Me too Brother! I have an original Andorian that needs completion...but I don't have a Romulan.

[mego boy CA]

Tomorrow is December 1st, any word yet?

[JDeRouen]

No, but my rep said, "soon." Frustrating, I know the feeling very well!

[txteach]

Thanks for the answer Joe. Keep us posted buddy.

We want P...Gorn

Well I want Gorn.
Does anybody know if Gorn is going to be released ?

[Bo8a_Fett]

I wonder if the Gorn will come with upgraded blink like the upgraded Trek episodes?
Would be nice to get one though

The latest (bad) news from Diamond is that Spock & Andorian are not scheduled to ship now until the first couple weeks of January.

Joe and I both have McCoy and Romulan for pre-order now on our websites. Not sure exactly when these are supposed to ship, but I am guessing February or March, since our official Diamond preorders for them actually ended a couple months ago, and our initial allotments could very well be all we see of them.

Scottie and Keeper are the next official figures in the line, with shipment scheduled for April. I will definitely be dialing down my preorders for these.

I strongly suspect that Uhura and Cheron will be the 5th wave released, as my sales rep has seen prototypes of these, and Doc needs a female body if he is going to do Zira.

After that, it is anyone's guess. I think to keep the line alive after that, they will likely have to add new crewmembers in order to continue the Aliens.

I wonder if they will even bother with the Talosian, because that would require a new body (unless of course they decide to go with a more show accurate outfit, and slap him on an 8 inch body, which would be fine by me).

So that leaves Gorn and Mugato, perhaps we could see Sulu and Chekov paired with them. Maybe even Yeoman Rand or Nurse Chapel to take advantage of the potential female body. Time will tell.

Depressing. Thanks for the news.

so much for in time for Christmas

I was pretty surprised by that date myself, since they were supposed to hit the US in late Novemeber, and they tend to turn them around very quickly once they hit the warehouse. Maybe they are anticipating customs delays, but I am not completely convinced they won't ship before then, but I wanted to get the official word out anyway.

my comic purveyor here in New Jersey is still assuring me that he will have Spock & Andy tomorrow.

Guess we will know for sure in 29 hours.....

[Hulk]

He probably thinks these ship with regular weekly orders, and hasn't been told otherwise, hence him towing the party line. These basically ship as soon as they get them in the warehouse, probably combined with regular weekly comic shop orders, but without them in the warehouse, then its highly unlikely. I got my allotment within two or three days of their arrival last time.

Did my usual Wednesday night stop at the Comic Shop on my way home from work tonight. I was assured that the Andorian-Spock cases wil be in the store next week.
