Does the First Contact Data have the sculpted left fist, or is his hand open? Also, does the normal head have the access panel the S7 one did?

Received TNG5 from my Aussie supplier & also the new Nemesis hairpieces from Tonyz Customz:
- Visiting Deep Space 9
I bought 2 Nemesis Crushers as I'd like to keep one as DST made her.
She is much more attractive than those poor zombified Season 7 figures.
My Bev's face needs a bit of re-painting. I was too rough getting the hair off!
She'll be sent off to the custom guy with Alyssa & Kira who are having their legs swapped.
I hope they get to making a regular movie era Picard. Perhaps they will make a movie Picard with chair at some point.
I've had Data's borgified head on the figure for several months, getting the regular head back on for the group pic was no easy task! plenty of cursing. I was particularly worried since his regular arm broke when I tried to change them over. Didn't want to break his neck too!
Anyway, after all this time...we have finally completed our TNG crews!

Nice work, I like how your custom Picard looks. I wish the other Picard figures had better headsculpts. I was suckered into buying the First Contact and Captain's Jacket ones because I was so enamoured with how cool their outfits are, but those head sculpts bug me. You're right about Data. I had a hell of a time swapping the heads too! I'm definitely never trying that again with that particular figure. Actually, I don't want to ever try headswapping again if it has to be as difficult as it was with Data.

No work has been done on Picard. He looks shorter in that pic because the figure is kinda squatting. But that is the head the figure came with.
Picards facial paint work probably varied as much as the S7 Crusher figures.

Casefresh.com.au. They only just got in TNG5, DS92, TMP 2-packs & they said they should have Worf/Gowron in a week or two.

Man! Love the way the hair looks on that!
Did you say someone is making custom castings of it? I'd love to get one and do me a Bev up that way!

The Bev hairpieces were cast from the production piece I bought on eBay:
The Troi hairpiece was sculpted & copied by Tony at Tonyz Customz who also copied the Crusher hairpieces:
http://www.tonyzcustomz.com/
The production sample Bev hairpiece is slightly higher up on her head than the original prototype, I forgot to ask Tony to alter that! the custom hairpieces are too hard & tight fit to alter positioning. But she still looks really good IMO.
- production sample & original prototype
I might have one Crusher & Troi hairpiece left over Gothneo. PM me If you are interested.
