Is it me or is the Spock figure in this set a bit taller than the previous Spocks?

No, you are definitely taller then the previous Spock... o_O
Interesting, I will have to take a look when I receive mine.

I shipped my pile-o-loot! Can't wait for this set... plus I picked up an extra scotty so I could make a WNMHGB scotty... I have an extra Pike Body that I can use... and I also have an extra Kang body now so I can make a Koloth!

I ordered from BBTS yesterday since the Pilot Spock and Kirk are showing as "in stock" now. I find that i order much more from BBTS now that from NewForce, perhaps because BBTS carries more merchandise, often has sales, gets stock in faster and seems to ship fast as well.

This Spock seems taller than the Kirk that comes with it, than the previous Spock figures are, alongside the previous Kirk figures.

Could it be that the Kirk is Shorter and the Spock is the same height?

The marshmellows are supposed to be Caffeinated!

They taste pretty good in my book. At roughly $1 each, they of course don't live up to their price on taste alone; for any marshmallow to do so in the absence of an accompanying piece of collectible licensed merchandise would be difficult--I would like to meet such a marshmallow, and devour it directly.

Got a 59 via a comic-shop here in Germany yesterday.

DST's quality control is... see here:





I have another set on route from Rick, so "crippled Spock" hopefully will be replaced soon.

To VulcanFanatic:
First the ears and now this... hope you don't take it too hard... wink.gif
...and I thought "Infinite diversity in infinite combinations" was some kind of vulcan philosophy and not the amount of DST's quality control issues... bahahahahaa... wink.gif

LoT that sucks. My Spocks left arm is frozen at the shoulder right now. I hope to free it up eventually and not break it in the process.

That's what happens when you try and neck-pinch a Gorn.

I just got sets 838 and 1235 with set 1235 having sticker 1264 stuck to a back corner of its package. Guess there is at least one set out there somewhere without a sticker! I really like the set, especially the accessories! I was thinking about the written in numbers on the Dilithium collection stickers. There is the potential for deception there since the numbers are written in. what if someone got number 17 and added a "01" behind it and tried to pass it off as the "1701" of 1701 set? maybe even 170 of 1701 could be altered. There are several combinations that could be easily altered to deceive collectors into paying a higher price for a set to get a more desirably numbered set. I guess i wish DST would make the stickers up without hand printing them the way they do.

I opened up a set of my new Dilithium Collection figure packs today and it does seem that the WNMHGB Spock is slightly taller than the other Spocks. Not sure why, but he is. Sorry that i didnt take a pic, maybe i will get time this weekend.
