    Those are two of my favorite shows and I skipped buying the BBP figures because of how they look. It's unfortunate how those lines turned out IMO.

    His customs are on his website and in the custom forum, but what I admire most about Brian is that he really doesn't sit still and is constantly improving and innovating on what he's done previously.

    Now I remember Brian! (Bleit1701)

    From back in the days when we were on the old Custom Famous Covers newsgroup.

    My experience has been that, however talented, hobbyists will cast what they want to cast or sew what they want to sew. Inspiration is not always equal to perspiration, and money is not always the ultimate consideration. Also, the initial effort of developing & fine-tuning a good pattern is considerable and can be off-putting.

    That said, I think we're very lucky to have stitch-smiths like T. & Brian here. Good tailoring at 1:1 scale is challenging; at 1:9 much, much, more so. Sam rightly notes how they have worked (& re-worked) their clothing to improve quality & detail.

I'm guessing it's a cost benefit analysis to them, but we want em so make a price...quote it and make them already!!

    BBP has the Wrath of Khan movie license for Bobble Heads. Doesn't necessarily mean they have the license to or can make 8" Mego style WoK figures. Might depend what is covered in DST's license, since they are still making Select figures.

    If you guys are talking about the rebooted ST movie crew I'll pass. I'd be a 4th for ST-The Motion Picture.

    It would be genius to put the BBP BBT figures in STOS movie uniforms.
