So far I am very pleased with everything I am seeing. I don't think the scale on any of the TNG figures is that bad. I can't wait to get mine next Wednesday!

Since I don't collect AGT and you get one with NewForce, I just ordered the core three from DST this morning. I pass by the distributing company everyday, I should have these Tuesday.

I don't like the look of the Wesley. I would have past on him but to get Q you had to get Wesley, as only Beverly and Wesley were the only ones to go out seperate.

His "weak leg" syndrome seems worse than both Data and LaForge. He looks like one for the back of the display for sure.

I'm waiting on mine from New Force Comics. Does Q use the same body as Riker? He's obviously got a larger torso than Wesley. And speaking of Wesley, is he using the same mold as Data only with a different left hand? Also, I read the review and it said that the paint is matte like the earlier releases... is that the case? If so I may get an extra Wesley and throw a Nemesis Data head and hands on there for a better looking "Chain of Command" Data...

I agree that Wesley leaves a little to the imagination, but I don't hate him. He's a good looking figure ... who he looks like is debatable though.

I actually think the Wesley Scupt is Ok, the paint makes him look kinda... well... like a he-she!

yeah I think that is a data body, which means that if you want a Command Data It should be really easy now to make one.

His legs are really messed up when He's seated. I love the Dr. Crusher & Q though.

Crusher sits the same friendly way Troi does.

I'd love to see your photos. smile.gif

Nice photos, thanks!

Very strange though... you mean they painted the hinge on the shoulders black for Q (not to mention every other hinge/pin jointed figure) and didn't do that for Beverly?! It's minor... it doesn't get me too upset cause I can fix it ... but...but .... HUH?! It just surprises me that they would miss that.

Side by side, I think it's a little amusing how different all the combadges look too. Actually, I think Wesley's probably came out the best....

You know... thing about Bev's Hair is it looks different depending on the light. Some of the closeups, with good light, she's clearly a redhead. But in other light, her hair looks more brownish.

But yeah, I think they just missed the paint op on Bev. I'm going to see if I can get Wesley's legs to straighten out. I really actually don't mind the wider stance on Q either... it makes him look more authoritative and commanding... as he should!
