Wow, I'm impressed. They actually look like who they're supposed to be. Wish I was a kid! Or had a male child........or something.

That new technique they use to make the action figures is incredible. They use some type of device to scan the actor to get all of the information they need to get the best representation they can get.

 

Some action figures are better than others. I remember an interview with Brent Spiner when he was shown a prototype of a Data figure and he was dumbfounded as they had given the figure blue eyes!! "All those years of wearing gold contacts and it had blue eyes."

I know that the Art Assylum toys are available online and at Target(which is where I got my Data figure from Nemesis, and where I got the Borg figure for my brother)

I don't know if they've still got this, but Target recently had a sale on them.

 

The 7 in. action figures were about $3.

 

And I didn't see the ship, but the model of the Enterprise (with lights and sounds) was $10.

 

Really, really, really amazingly cheap stuff.

 

Worth it to check and see if they're still on sale. :bow:

It is now safe to say I will never again be buying from the Communicator magazine, they ripped me with full retail and I am not happy.

The only Trek toys I really liked where the ships and stuff like phasers, tricorders, comminicators, that sort of thing. You know, run arround flying the ship, then pretend you're a Starfleet officer! :D

 

Personally, I prefer the Trek games for Computer & Playstation. :wow:
