Yeah, no kidding. You just gave a lot of great info there. While it's sad to see another delay for wave 4, it's good to hear that they're still coming. (especially the 1701 ) Thanks!

Thanks for all the updates Rick. It is much appreciated!

New pics of the figures from UK Toyfair can be seen HERE at Action-figure.com. There are also pictures of the AGT figures, the Kirk/Khan two-pack, and the Mego re-release.

I think Geordi looks really nice. He'd have to be my fave of the 3rd wave. Though the AGT version is a bit iffy!

What do we think is with the cats?? orange, black & white....where did these other kitties come from?

[skeletor]

awesome Datas coming with Spot and his violin?
lol hey remember one episode didn't Spot had kittens? ...so the other cats could be the kittens? they're really getting creative now!

I must say...and I'll probably get bashed for this lol But I'm not feeling Datas face..maybe its just a bad picture but it doesnt look as good as the 2002 AA Data that I have. I thought they did an excellent job on the likness of his face .......but what was up with the tan ears? lol

Are there any pictures of the new Geordie with his VISOR off?

[The_Donster]

Skeletor, I think it's the angle of the picture of Data. I saw these last year in San Diego and all of the looked spot on Once I get the latest ATD wrapped up, I'll try and post some pics from there up in the Members Only Section

I think they are from All Good Things. Data has a few cats just lounging around in his mansion.

I hear you, I'm not too impressed with Data's likeness either. It's not horrible but it could definitely be better.

Also, AGT Geordi lost the grey in his hair and is now wearing a pink shirt instead of purple. What happened?

OH WOW! that is GREAT they even made the little things on the side of his head where his VISOR clicks into place, how cool is that!!? lol

Thanks for the link! I appreciate it! I always try to google and find good pics of the new figures, but I have little luck.

I sure like the captain kirk in his command chair. That enterprise looks nice too!

I just won captain picard season 7 on ebay last week, i hope it comes soon it's my first in the next gen line.
Its been kinda hard getting them, the shipping can be very expensive on ebay for just one figure.

Ah, well there you go. Then the cats are a very cool! I guess you'll just have to see which one you get, but I can see some people buying multiple AGT Data's with each cat, unless they all come with a single Data.


The Data looks ok...though not in comparison to the AA one. I'd really need to see him in person to know for sure....which shouldn't be too far away now.

[Captain Kidd]

This will probably be similar to the various PADD you could get with the packaging for Right/Worf and Picard/Troi.

[VulcanFanatic]

That Data just doesnt look right. I remember someone saying that he looks like an Ape, and now i believe it.

[Artistix]

Did we see the news over at AA forums?

The Data/Geordi wave are out in Australia!

Ofcourse, not in my crappy little city. I'll have to go for a 3 hour trip to Sydney to find them....but it will be worth it

I gather you guys should be receiving them pretty soon.

In the pics above, it kinda looks like one side of his head has been smashed in at the back!

[skeletor]

hey man what part of Australia do you live? I had a girlfriend in Victoria about 5 years ago lol she got me hooked on that vegemite lol

[Artistix]

Bathurst, New South Wales....& I love my vegemite

[MattP]

Artistix, there should be a removeable panel on the back of his head so you can plug a lead in it ala "The Best of Both Worlds"
Don't know if you guys have seen this before but this ad was in Forbidden Planet's mail order catalogue in the UK.

[JulesLuvsShinzon]

Aw crap! I got two Lores delivered from Forbidden Planet today..........trouble is, one of them has the wrong flipping head on him....he's not smiling!


What is it with me and flippin' heads? That's the second damn time I got a figure with the wrong head on it!

So, I now have to send it back and get a darn replacement.

BTW: I have Geordi and he is utterly lovely. I think they toned down the joke lips!

[DST Trek Collector]

^^^^^^ Nice one Jules! Any pics? Oh and also, where did you get geordi? He's not on the fp site. What accesories did they come with?

[JulesLuvsShinzon]

^^^Hopefull I'll post some pics this weekend. I tried to upload to photobucket earlier this week but for some reason it was taking about a week and a half!

Now, this is a very annoying thing to relate but S7 Geordi is not on the FP website, it is only offered via their mail/phone-in catalogue! In other words you need to phone 01621 877222 and order. When I queried this piece of nonsence, I was told that different items are offered on the website to the catalogue because ~ wait for it ~ "Not everyone has access to a computer!". The logic of this defeats me utterly; why not just offer the full range in the catalogue and website at the same time? I sometines think that retailers go out of their way to make life difficult for collectors.

Lore comes without any accessories at all, but Geordi comes with a standard tricorder and something we haven't seen before, a silver tool case. As we know, S7 Data has Spot the cat, a standard tricorder, and, coolest of all...........his violin and bow! How cool it that?!!

It's very frustrating because I only got one each of Geordi and season 7 Data and I'm waiting on my duplicates before I decide which to open, and I can't open Lore for the same reason. But they do look cool in the package!

Jules if you still have that wrong head one I will buy it from you and cover shipping here to the US
