    Yes, a few new figures would be excellent: Trelane, Mudd, Vina, Chapel, Rand, Leslie.

    I bought every trek figure DST put out already, so unless new characters are planned, my only excitement will be watching my current collection loose value.
    Hoping for a Gorn on a Hulk body and a Trelane.

    Nice to have confirmation that the bridge is definitely planned!

    Would it be very difficult to change the color of the plastic used for the bridge accessories to make the other variation? If you could, you'd sell a few more that way...and make it just that much more collectible.

    I'd readily accept a cardboard shuttle craft playset that we could assemble? That sounds very retro.

    Yes cardboard, and half the size of that amazing scratch built number from earlier.

    Could you add a pic of the Gorn as it will be released now? To be certain...

    As for the shuttlecraft: make it a Build-a-Figure type of thing: each figure gets a piece of the shuttlecraft with it. Collect them all, and get yourself a completed shuttle!

    That shuttle craft is amazing! I don't know where I'd put it, but WOW!

    A Shuttlecraft would be AWESOME. Especially if it was anything like the one in the posted photos here...although that's probably not likely. Still, it's a great way to have a full small ship playset, whether it's done like that or in classic Mego style.

    If EMCE reissues the Enterprise Bridge, I do think they should do a variant on the color of the accessories. They'll sell a few more units that way to collectors who want both variants, too.

    I think I remember the custom made shuttle craft from a little ways back, that looks so cool, and it would
    be something sweet if EMCE ended up making one too.

    I'm very curious (Zach?) as to whether the second runs will have variant details. For example, the illo or color of the Enterprise's furnishings.

    I need a Gorn and an Uhura, as well as a Pike (but only if the head gets fixed). Enterprise playset would be awesome, too.

    And I agree, that shuttlecraft is amazing!

    I liked the prototype a lot better.
    Maybe my hopes were a bit too high regarding Gorn figures...I mean, they're family...

    Hope they fix khans red head issue,if so I'll get a couple I need one for a Tonto custom.
    My Gorn has been missing for 3 years so I'll be down for a few of them as well.
    Fingers crossed great price point for these as well.
