I appreciate all the info Paul. I'm going to buy a case of klingons/bones from you. I'm going to recreate the Romulan bridge from "balance of terror" with as many rommies as I can afford.

I don't know all the details, but I don't think it's fair to blame EMCE or Diamond for the delay. If China hadn't messed up a couple of months ago with all those other toys we all would've had an Andorian by now"...The agony of my soul found vent in one loud, long and final scream of despair..." - Edgar Allan PoeComment

I know the feeling. We're expected to places orders for Scotty/Keeper without having received Spock/Andorian or McCoy/Romulan, and it's frustrating. I've sold a bunch of Spock/Andorian but hardly any McCoy/Romulan because naturally people are waiting for the former before placing orders for the latter, and thus it's really hard to gauge interest in Scotty/Keeper.--

Scottie (sic) will sell. Not only a main character, but the most wanted shirt colour for extra crewmen, so I plan to buy as many Scotties as I can find. He should prove to be the best seller of all the EMCE Star Trek figures. The Keeper, on the other hand just won’t sell. There will be a few of us 40-somethings that buy one for nostalgic purposes, but I don’t forsee any of us buying multiples, and the average Star Trek fan will pass. I hope Keeper is packed less per case than Scottie for that reason. Ditto for the Cheron.Comment

Just got an email from my Comic Guy and he told me that the figures are due to be in his store December 28th. If I have them in hand next Friday, you guys will be the first to know. I ordered 2 cases.Comment

I saw this on action figure news site
According to EMCE toys the reason behind the delay is due to extra safety checks now in place for toxicity following 'Mattel-gate' as well as labor shortages at the Chinese factories.
Whilst the extra safety is sure to be welcomed by all EMCE recognise that some people will be upset about not getting their Spock figure until after xmas (currently estimated to be 8th January). Therefore anyone who ordered the figures through EMCE's online store at Starlog.com is getting a little card, in the spirit of the Star Wars IOU from 1977.
The card features a humorus picture and states: "Someone very special has ordered you our official MEGO Star Trek reproduction toys for the holidays. (However, a temporal rift in the space-time continuum has them locked in an alternate universe until after the New Year.)"
I can't afford them til the new year anyway:(
For the love of Mego'sComment

*Correction*! Just talked to My Friend Chris...and I miss understood...His Invoice came out last Friday...for the following Week, and the Figures will be a day late because of the Holiday. So...I will be able to pick Them up this coming Friday.
Well...at least the wait is almost over!sigpicComment

I got the card today. It shows Spock and Andorian with Santa hats. I can't say it's in the vein of the 1977 Early Bird, as the card is not redemable for some figure. But it was a nice thought.Comment

Got my Spock and Andorian today!
Bought em at St. Marks comics in New York City today.
Excellent.
They also have them here:
