Yeah, I would expect a Sisko, Odo, Dukat or Worf (perhaps 3 of the 4) if the “Universe” line gets a second wave.

What's the Universe line or is that just the name given to the new releases?

 

[Paul755]

I believe they are calling the new line “Star Trek Universe”.

The Prodigy stuff seems to separate though.

Finally these appear in the toy aisle at the local Walmart. but only Khan and Kirk, neither of which I was really keen on. But nice to see them out in the wild.

It was the exact same story for me the last time I went to a Walmart.

Well, today I saw the TOS movie figures at a nearby Wal-Mart, marked down to $9 instead of the usual $12.97, so picked up all three.

Here they are with Saavik from 1995:

And Kirk and Spock side by side with their TOS incarnations from 1993 for comparison:

Not bad looking.

Now I want to make a diorama/playset of the TWOK Enterprise bridge for these figures, by means of 3D printing. But that specific bridge does not seem like a popular subject for 3D modeling, although there is decent stuff out there for the TOS bridge. There's a TWOK-era helm/navigation console and chair on Thingiverse but not accurate enough for my preferences.

Is this what you speak of?
If not,
you may find this interesting...

Well... I have seen that seller's stuff, and while I think it is very good, each set costs more than my entry-level 3D printer did. At that price, they should have at least been done with finer layer height, as the surfaces are rather rough. I would gladly purchase 3D stl files if they were available at a budget-level price, to print myself.

Cults3d might have what you are looking for. Depending on your skill you might be able to find a model set and scale it to whatever you want, up or down.

I've tried Cults3d and didn't find anything. I have found excellent TWOK-era chair models on cgtrader, but no helm/navigation console or wall consoles to go with them.
Another possible option... I found a 3D model of the Reliant bridge on Renderhub, which is more for use in virtual environments such as games or whatever. But I might be able to finagle something printable from some of the parts.

You had me excited we were getting a new Saavik figure!

This photo was taken at London Toy Fair earlier this week. It’s pretty blurry, but from what I can see (and intel I’ve had from an insider) I think it’s: TNG Worf, TNG Geordi, SNW Spock, VOY Seven Of Nine, Q in Judges Robes and SNW Pike. What do you think? I think the figures on the right are the already released Kirk and Spock as you can see Spock’s ‘mickey mouse’ radiation gloves in front of them. Picard and Burnham are possibly on the far left. Sadly there aren’t any ships or accessories from what I can see, nor are any of the forthcoming Prodigy releases on display.

Oh that is interesting - definitely looks like Q and Seven of Nine are certs from that picture. Would be cool to get some SNW figures for sure but would be disappointed if DS9 continues to be snubbed.

I have picked up the whole first line except the Discovery figures as I don't enjoy that show.
