You mention the rubber shirt a few times, and others have in other threads, questioning it's longevity. Do we know if the 2 pack re-releases later this year will be straight repacks of TOS 1 figs, or will they have the solid chests?

Also, I've been enjoying your reviews, great work!

All signs point to yes. They have reused the rubber shirts on the TRU rereleases, an I'm pretty sure they said in a Q and A that they would be rubber shirts again. Big bummer!

And thanks for the compliment!

Well, everything you say (negatives) is accurate. I'll just bet the full behind-the-scenes story on the tricorder is one of a lotta screwups by China, and then DST ran out of time/money to make further corrections. Maybe we'll hear the whole story some day. Still, overall a cool toy and I recommend it to any fan of the TOS roleplay toys.

Dont think i am going to get a Medical Tric either, unless its like on sale or something. Its a shame that DST didnt follow through with the original idea. I would have rather spent more money and got the whole enchilada than pay for something that disappoints.

Yeah Cage Spock was a cheapie creepy!

"Take regular Spock, put him in Kirk or Pike pilot uniform make it light blue! Tada!"

A bit of a letdown, at this point I'm mainly getting roleplay and ships. Btw still adore the TOS science tric! Love it!

Hey thanks! I appreciate that!

And I totally forgot to mention the hairstyle change when I did the head writeup! I meant to go back and throw that in before I published, but I forgot...I need to hop over and fix that....

I saw that two pack for like 8 bucks over at a Sound shop in the next town over from me, i should have picked it up in case someone wanted it.
