I kind of think we’re past this level of quality in the year 2022. I doubt any kid would want to play with these that’s not like 4-6 years old when compared to the level of other action figures we have from other companies.
I was really hoping they would step up their game, not go back to figures that look like they’re from the early 90’s.
Shame.
They must be targeting us and not kids. I love them because it makes me nostalgic for when I was a kid. All my old action figures are still in my dad’s attic.
Are they intentionally trying to make Data look like Mark Zuckerberg now? How meta.
Great observation. Lt. Cmdr. Mata.
Gosh… This is a deepfake action figure named Datazucc…
Are they supposed to look retro? They look like a toy from the 90’s.
Yes! I love them.
thats a pretty good price for the Enterprise, especially considering how much the DST versions ran
Agreed — that’s the one think I might get in this set.
Wouldn’t it be more prudent to start with some Prodigy toys since that is the show that is suppose to attract the younger generation?
My thought too alphantrion.
However, I am wondering if Prodigy will be under different licensing arrangements since it is a Nickelodeon property.
If so, that might be all for the best as many of Nickelodeon’s properties have very successful toys lines made by major toy companies with better quality.
These figures are HORRIBLE looking…
Should of went with new designs instead of going “retro”. I don’t even really collect figures anymore but I have seen such incredible modern figures shopping with my nephews that these are too plain. Price is a bit high too.
Should HAVE.
Yea. Khan is the only figure that looks at least somewhat close to the actual character.
Just when I thought I had my collection finished….
Oh well, that is why its called a collection or should it be called a Collective???
WOW! They must think we are all made of money by the prices they are charging.
That is some truly dreadful sculpting. Considering the ridiculously inflated price they’re charging for these, you’d think some level of quality control would have been put in place.
I wonder if the phaser can separate into a Type 1 and Type 2.
Why is there an original series Enterprise and hand phaser, but the characters are from Wrath of Khan?!
What the heck Paramount! Can you please look over the Hollywood Hills and start copying what Disney Consumer Product does: license=>inspect=>production. Have some pride!
Or even let Nickelodeon’s licensing team coach them.
I’m hoping we get better toys for Prodigy since it’s a Nick production.
Um…$15?
Theres no excuse after all this time to get these so wrong. TWOK has the black trim wrapping around the collar, badge too big. Look like 90s GI Joe figures. Enterprise looks like a dollar store knock off. Intercoolers on the inside face of the nacelles are way off center. Phaser os a repop of the grossly inaccurate 90s toys. CMon, DST at least knew their audience. These arent for kids the target audience is adult collectors. Whose going to pay 15.99 for this drek let alone the more expensive items. Never shouldve taken the license from DST. Id rather wait for quality than this lazy no effort offering. 😡
My Star Trek action figures were my favorite toys growing up. I didn’t collect them. I played with them. They kept my imagination going for HOURS. I built sets for them out of cardboard. I made paper uniforms for my TOS action figures colored and cut to look like the movie uniforms. When I see these, I feel the same joy I always felt for them and they still spark my imagination.
I love that story. Toys should fire the imagination of children and adults alike!
I used old VHS tapes to make sets, I expanded the engineering playset with these and it was pretty awesome.
These look horrible. I think some Star Trek could use a new series of Pop Funkos, at least they look good if done right.
Interesting. The Kirk and Picard faces are good, the Spock and Data ones are not… The hip joints leave weird gaps too.
I think they should have either gone with the exact look (and size!) of the 90’s ones and basically continued that line for collectors (starting with all the crew in MMs maybe?) or gone with a very modern figure style, with high realism or totally stylised.
These are like the 90s ones but not close enough to blend with an existing collection and not good enough for a more realistic collection. But still, I’ll take a look at them in store when they arrive. Might look better.
Playmates and toys…what’s not to like? ;-)
Khan looks the most true to life. But…no Sybok?
