YIKES! I wonder what the other 86 images reveal.

We've certainly come a long way but, dang, I remember how exciting it was to collect this line when it debuted. Still wish it had been 1:18 scale but I have terrific memories thanks to Playmates Toys.

You just know someone tried offering these in blind boxes at some point.

Now the creator of the recently canceled Max series "The Flight Attendant" is taking a stab at Star Trek 4. This is still intended to be the swan song for the cast. (Barring, of course, any cameos they might make in a streaming series.)

At this point, there are nine figures available for pre-order. The aforementioned Kirk, McCoy, Nero, and two different Spocks.

 

Since then there's been Keenser:

Chekov:

Sulu:

And most recently Scotty:

Noticeably absent is Uhura and any other female characters from the films. I'm sure Hiya is getting as much mileage as they can out of that common male buck but I'm hoping they get around to completing the Main Seven soon. As much as I love this scale (though figures are clearly not in scale with each other), the $25 retail is tough on the budget. Keenser is a must-have as a cool new alien but $220 for the whole assortment just plain hurts.
