That would be awesome.
I have to say I am pleasantly surprised by this line, I love the look of them & will buy any & every figure they make.
I'm gathering the skirted figures like Uhura won't be able to sit, so I hope she stands at her Bridge station in the new movie.

Imagine that. A toy that is meant to be a toy. I am pretty sure that is what they were going for. LOL

I'd love to see some TNG in the 3 3/4" and DS9. New and improved playsets of the 1701-D bridge, transporter and engineering would be nice! Ops for DS9 and Promenade w/ Quarks bar would be to die for! Playmates could also do environments for Star Trek ( something along the lines of thier Simpsons: World of Springfield sets! )

Thats exactly what i thought when i saw the picture. In my opinion i think that this picture is not a closeup and its hard to see a lot of the detail. The 6" pic was a closeup, but only one angle. I think that these two lines look fairly similar and when we see better pictures, you will probably see the sweater like pattern on the smaller figures too. I think that more angles will make the 6 " line look a little better too.

The communicator looks wierd. More like a video cell phone than any communicator we've ever seen in Trek. The orb in the middle is interesting, though.
The tricorder looks like a cross between the TMP tric and a TNG Mark VII.
The bridge playset looks great. I'm definitely have to get it now and some figures to go with it.
The transporter set looks wierd. It seems to have only one chamber that will actually "transport" a figure, with four pads just to display figures.
The Enterprise looks very stylized. I like the curves. I think this is the first glimpse we have had of the new incarnation of the Big E.
The description of the 6 inch scale figs says the shirts are soft PVC material. Looks like they are making them similar to DST's TOS line.

But I do love the new Enterprise ship, the bridge playset. and even the Nerada. I wasn't too sure about the new ship designs before but those toys convinced me.
I might pick up a tricorder too.

For me, the Playmates Lines get a "no-go".
I was actually looking forward to the 6inchers to go with die DST AA figures, but all of the Playmates figures, except the clothed ones, are too kiddy like for my taste...

The transporter is pretty cool, and I want to say the bridge is too but it's just so...strange. It has so much of a stark contrast from the retro-red and the white surroundings. Though, the bridge is interesting in that you buy one main set and then you finish it by buying figures with other pieces like console sections.
Looks like both the 3 3/4" line and 6" lines will have one standard body for all Starfleet males. For the 3 3/4" it's not so bad, even though only a couple look decent with it. But the 6" figures and their sweaters...not good at all.
For some reason everything has a feel as though it belongs in a Power Rangers toyline, I miss the good ol' Playmates days.
