Huge, huge props for this, the research this must have required was serious.

Never knew that Chase Masterson's fans were the ones who got the figure made.

Did you get the back story about Crusher Generations mixup?

30K units for the Warp Factor figures sounds about right, didn't know there were so few made. I forgot that the Tribbles O'Brien was the limited one.

The Mugato figure is such a great sculpt, it aged really well.

Species 8472 figure doesn't get enough mentions nowadays, but that was a heavy lift at the time.

Sooo many uniform screwups in the later years, kinda amazing looking back at it, you wonder "how did that even happen?"

The Eddington figure is so dope, love it.

Intendant Kira at 8000 units is a pretty small run, but it came out in later years so there wasn't a big rush of people to find them.

In the course of research, did you get to talk to Overley about the line at all? What's he up to now?

I don't see how this could make money. Compared to ten years ago, there's so much content on streaming services now, and movies overall in the pandemic era have been sparse as well.

I don't get how Paramount thinks there's a financial upside to this, esp with this cast. Even SNW isn't popular enough (and it's popular) to support a film at this point I would guess.

A Dr. Crusher International Edition sold for $57.00 plus $8.00 shipping after 9 bids.

I don't see these come up for sale all that often, but apparently they've held their value well.

I didn't think this was too tough of an item to get, but they were limited to 4000 units and sold in the UK and Australia only.

Discovered relatively recently that PM had realized quite late in the process, in late fall 1994 just as the movie was about to come out, that the movie uniforms were not used.

So it appears that they got some sketches early on, in late 1993/early 1994 when the movie was in pre-production and Rob Blackman designed the updated uniforms, tooled up the figures, and then as filming started in May 1994 they never checked back in with Paramount to see if anything had changed.

Not a vast difference out back, but the maple leaf is immediately noticeable.
