And that's where we differ,as I actually want Pine Kirk and Quinto Spock figures,lol! I'm bored with the old stuff,and of course don't buy it. And I bet I'm the only one who loved the Playmates stuff from new movie Trek. And wave 2 looked really good too. I picked up a few things back in 2009 when the first movie came out,but not much when ST ID came out as there wasn't much to buy. And I don't buy stuff just becasue they slap Star Trek on it. Hascrap totally failed,and what little there was from others weren't that interesting,excpet for QMx stuff. Not a fan of POP figs,so won't be getting those either.
The Revell kit was great,and even though I'll never build it......I just like the box,lol....I'm glad I got it for failry cheap,around 20 bucks. It's still cheap actually,around 35-40 bucks,and well worth it.
Love the phasers from QMx and hope they do the new version. The Anovos LOOKS good,but there's no way I'm paying 300 bucks for a DIY kit,400 for Servo action. Will I pay up to 100 bucks for a QMx version? Absolutely! But not getting the SDCC Kirk and Spock though. I would if it was Pine and Quinto of course,lol!
Oh well,guess the toy companies don't wanna take a chance on any new movie Trek toys,so they don't want or need my money....which is fine,I can spend it elsewhere. Maybe go retro and pick up more Bionic toys and such,lol!
I do agree that for socalled Trek fans,it will never be good enough. There's ALWAYS SOMEthing they'll find to complain about,even when it's perfect. Instead of actually enjoying things they just look for all the nitpicky negatives. Doesn't it get old and boring after awhile? I would think so,but guess some people are just stuck in a rut,lol!
I love new Trek,always have,and look forward to the new movie very much. Guess I'm just easier to please,since I'm also looking forward to ID 2 and TMNT 2,lol! Hmmmm.....maybe it's time to look for some old ID toys?! Yeah,give Trek a rest again,lol!
J-R!
