Nacelle Star Trek action figures

Oh, wow, yes Tuvix looks fantastic! I second @Tomalak - those are some amazing photos, @Michael! The way you've got the light bouncing off him in different ways makes it appear that he has more expressions than just the two on those heads.
 
Got an email from Nacelle today. They say it looks like mid-late Feb is when they will be able to start shipping again.

There are also comparison pictures of the Weyoun that is out now and the improved version that will be shipped next month. I can’t post punctures but damn…a vast improvement.

The likeness isn’t 100% but the revised figure looks almost like a total resculpt.
 
He only needs a little purple outline between his hair and face
A tiny splash of color in the ears wouldn't go astray either. I know he didn't always have color in his ears, but this little guy can only be helped by some color variety.

Probably because prototypes require reworking based on how the materials respond to the mold.
 
Updated look at Archer…neither one is a great likeness.

I'm not impressed with Archer at all, doesn't really look like Bakula even with the tweaks. It's a shame because the renders looked great and Art Asylum did a flawless Archer 25 years ago.

Weyoun and Jellico seem good though.

First one kind of looks like a younger grandpas from UP.

The second one looks like a bad CGI animated version for a cheap video game.

Yeah, all the Art Asylum Enterprise figures have almost perfect likenesses. The only hinky ones are T’Pol and Shran.


Reminds me of Statler and Waldorf.

That’s pretty accurate.
 
Will certainly be buying this! However, reading the rest of their statement has me a little worried that sales may not be at a high enough level (especially the 3rd paragraph). Will we actually see a 3rd wave and all 12 bridge pieces?

I know some people have been frustrated by the delay and I feel bad about it, so hopefully when you get your figures you’ll think the wait was worth it! We have come as close as we can to the renders and will continue to work on improving the facial technology in particular on the second wave and beyond.

We have focused on bringing fan-desired characters to life via plastidc, worked hard to keep the price point below 30 bucks (even after tariffs were added to the cost) and have tried to have some fun with the selections and accessories.

We have put a lot of joy into making these figures, and while sales have been great and continue to stay solid, if the community doesn’t support our Star Trek line at the volume we need to keep in going then we will very sadly stop making them as there no need for us to take the risks we are taking if the community is not happy.

It might be cliche to say we’re all in it together, but it’s the truth as it relates to Star Trek figures in 2026.
 
Yeah, I would not trust on getting anything past Wave 3 right at the moment even though they have announced thru wave 4.

I’ve never really liked that they announced stuff so far out. Even moreso now that there was the big delay with wave 1.

I’m all in on buying the bridge depending on cost.
 
It’s fairly obvious that if fans don’t buy them there won’t be any more. That’s why I’ve decided to buy waves 1 and 2 even though not all of the characters would have been my choice.

But the bridge set would be a hard sell for me. There’s just nowhere I could put it! My house only has so much space for Star Trek tat. :lol:
 
I only pre-ordered a few from each wave. I figure I’ll wait on the others until I see them in person at a place like 2nd and Charles or a comic shop.

But yeah, room and cost is the biggest issue for the bridge. But I figure I can set up the bridge display over in my parents basement if I have to. If each piece is about the cost of a figure that should be ok. It’s just too cool to pass up if I can afford it.
