    Vina, Chapel, Rand, short-sleeve McCoy?

    From Diamond select on Facebook...

    Jim Cannon What's happening over the short-sleeved McCoy, Rand & Chapel figures ?!?

    Diamond Select Toys: Chapel and Vina are still on schedule for the next series. McCoy and Rand have not been scheduled yet.

        Just a month back, Doc Mego said that there wasn't enuff retailer interest to merit a Chapel/Vina release, so I wouldn't put too much stock in that DST reply. Unless wheels have been turning in the interim..

          Where had Rand and short sleeve McCoy been previously mentioned? I seem to recall Doc (or maybe Joe?) saying that if they did go back to the well and release a Kirk belly shirt for example, then they were out of ideas.

          It is encouraging at least to see Diamond doing some promo for the Treks.

            I think most of these kind of statements need do be followed with "at this time." Plans change and partularly business plans change on a dime.
            Not saying that is the case here, just that statements like that aren't necessarliy carved in stone.
            Expectation is the death of discovery.

                If it's on Facebook you know it's gotta be true!

                Hope they come through since I've been wanting a Vina Mego since I hit puberty. Wish they would make a Redhead version of an Orion Girl..hmmm...I think I will.

                    Sorry folks but I think these are what they're referring to when they mention short-sleeved McCoy, Rand & Chapel figures-not EMCE:

                      I don't remember the episode where McCoy is 7'4". Is that in the second season or third?

                        I still hope that we will see Chapel and Vina in production. DST
                        just renewed the Star Trek license and there is still interest in
                        the classic series.

                            The comment was under discussion of a pic of the Retro Pike and Salt Vampire they posted on the DST page, but I think you are right John, someone at DST must be getting their wires crossed in that statement.

                            It would be neat to get a Retro Rand though.
