Playmates Toys

as long as we get T’Lyn it will be fine. Hopefully these sell well and MR can get us all of the LD crew.

Just remember Beverly wasn’t in the first wave of TNG figures from Playmates and Picard in his regular S3-7 uniform didn’t come out until the line was nearly over.

 

[Richard S. Ta]

There's a lot of characters still to do from LDS. The ones there are the core S1 team.

if there's a second wave, I'm sure we'll get Ransom, Shax, Freeman, T'Ana and yes, T'Lyn.

 

[Paul755]

the most important thing is to get us Mariner, Boimler, Tendi and Rutherford.

Every character after that is important but not as key as those 4.

Hopefully they put up the pre-order for Tendi or Rutherford soon.

 

[NCC-73515]

Comes with the arch!

Comes with the plank

Comes with the Spock shared drink glass and the phasered pot

 

[Paul755]

I was gonna pass on the sailor figures but damnit…they look awesome. A full alternate torso for Worf is pretty great.

Something looks off about Valaris though. The jacket is too long I think.

 

[NCC-73515]

And the flap also not fastened, like on Sulu

 

[Firebird]

How strange, the likenesses of Geordi, Worf, Valeris, and the Romulan Commander are less spot on than the others Nacelle's shown so far.

 

[Richard S. Ta]

The accessories are brilliant. Worf gets a plank.

Really cool.

These are renders, not the physical product. But I think they look pretty great!

I guess I’m all-in on this line. The Sailor Geordi and Worf look amazing.

 

[Richard S. Ta]

Not to disagree with dear Firebird, but I also think the likenesses are really good. Shouting Geordi face especially.

I also think the sculpts look really good. Still waiting for the first release figures to make a definitive judgement.

Don’t get me wrong - the renders look very good! It’s just that they don’t have that same feeling like you’re looking at a screen-perfect miniaturization of the actors like their Weyoun or Kirk figures. Could be the final production figure will look a little closer, we’ll see.

 

[Paul755]

I think the likenesses look good on Geordi, Worf and the Romulan Commander. But like the overall sculpt there is just something off with Valaris.

Final judgement has to wait on the final packaged product though. A lot can be lost in translation from prototype to final mass produced product. Some might turnout worse, some better. Especially when you are going for 100% real life replication and not the slightly cartoony look of the Playmates figures.

Really cool.

And now people can remove it.

 

[Unicron]

It's rather funny that Valeris gets the cooking pot.

 

[drt]

It's rather funny that Valeris gets the cooking pot.

I thought the "leftover glop after the pot gets disintegrated" accessory was also a nice touch.

 

[Tomalak]

It would be cool if the Generations sailor crew each come with parts of the sailing ship - Worf has the plank and Geordi the arch, so maybe Troi has the wheel, Riker has part of the mast, etc.

Never thought about that but it would be soooo cool if they do!

 

[Paul755]

Yeah, that would be cool. And I fully expect Picard to come with the family album.

I would bet when they do Sailor Beverly she comes with an alternate “wet” head.

 

[Tosk]

I would bet when they do Sailor Beverly she comes with an alternate “wet” head.

One that looks suspiciously like Patricia Tallman.
