EXO-6 1:6 Star Trek Figures

Nice little video showing that Quark and Kruge are next at bat!

They both look amazing, but I don't think I'm a fan of the non-sculpted hair on Kruge. Really hoping it's sculpted when they get to Worf.
 
In for Quark. Not sure about Kruge. I’m trying to limit myself to main cast & I already broke that rule by preordering Shran.

I just hope that Mr. Nanjin will finish the TOS crew with Uhura and Chekov. I have the 5 that QMX issued already....

I also asked Mr. Nanjin regarding making more Admiral Kirks. If you read the comment section, his response was shall we say, disheartening.

"We can't. Our facility is built on Warp Drive. Have to keep the Warp Bubble in optimal condition. I only have 3.5 years left in this venture. Have to move fast. There are still a lot of characters to make. We want a Museum."

Yeah, it's unfortunate that it was a limited time only. You might be able to find them elsewhere still, otherwise TWOK or TUC versions will be your next chance (which is the version I'm holding out for, I like those maroons best)

On the plus side, you'll almost definitely be able to complete your collection with Uhura and Chekov, just a matter of when they pop up, he's amusingly all over the place with which characters are released and when. I personally find it exciting.

It would be nice to offer a payment plan. Especially for the TWOK figures. I sure can't afford $600.00 at one time

I'm guessing that's when their license expires? If so, I'm really hoping they'll be able to renew - even at the rate they're putting out figures, I don't think we'll get full crews for all the live-action shows.

Yeah, it's a 6 year deal and Nanjin Tam, who started the company with the sole purpose of creating Trek figures, plans to retire from 1/6th figures with his final release of a set of the officers from Undiscovered Country.

Which he recently hinted at being super-ridiculously limited, so I'm not getting my hopes up for them. He's also basically admitted what I've long suspected, that his ultimate goal is just to have a personal collection of all the figures he wants. Many of them will never see a consumer release, and I wouldn't be surprised if they were never truly intended to. :ack:

I'm glad he's sharing his passion but why not share it all? Seems like the best ones are always "limited".

I don't think he ever intended to get rich off the project. I guess his pay-off is getting to keep the prototypes that never go into production. I get it though. Exo-6 is small and can only justify utilising factories for a limited period. Certain Trek characters sell well but traditionally the line dies a death before getting to less popular ones. His strategy has always been an eclectic mix to keep the ball bouncing. I think because TMP was not seen as a fan favourite, he grossly underestimated the interest. Some people clearly only bought them hoping to sell them straight on at a profit. That leaves a nasty taste in the mouth. But he also understands that the more he makes Kirk, the less time he has to make anybody else. There are a LOT of key characters still to go and not a lot of time.

I lack the space for too many figures but I am keen on the TOS characters and classic aliens so I have gone for Admiral Kirk, Shran, and Quark so far. Quark is selling at a more leisurely pace than Kirk. Uhura, Chekov, and Chapel are on my list too, plus I'd buy a Rand, Kruge, Saavik, Captain Sulu to name a few.

Arrrrrgh!
I missed out on TMP Kirk. I knew he was coming out but without a notice like TMP Spock if I remember correctly.
Nice companion piece. "Bearded Bones" will be next.
