Nope, don't have Hugh, sorry. Personally, I'd try to get chrome-Locutus, allthough I think it will be more expensive than the others (don't have the current collectors prices, but I think that one was the most expensive). I know that the first Borg (the one that came out with the first wave sometime back in the early 90's with the Ferengi and the Romulan and the Cast) didn't have anything else, I'm not even sure if it had a base. Later editions had the standard card and those bionic arms (you can replace both hands with other 'extras' like some chainsaw extraction thing or a clamp). The other two releases where the two-part set and the chrome edition, AFAIK.
Besides those mentioned above, I have Seven as Drone and the Queen, both were newer releases from '98 I think. If you can't decide, tell me which figure you want to examine closely, I can try to shoot some pics with my webcam (don't know if it works, but you'd get a better impression of it.)

I wouldn't be too confident. Give these people a setof Akira blueprints and you could keep sperm banks supplied for months.
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Oh, yes, a brilliant idea. I wish I had done that when I was a kid, so that I could have played with shapeless lumps of hardened clay painted up like Parisian whores with detached retinas. I would have had better luck just looking for a vaguely Picardish rock in the driveway.*
As it turns out, because I had no flip-top communicator toy as a child, I was forced to use the plastic trailer to a toy semi-truck, one of the kinds they use to move large numbers of cars from place to place. It looked surprisingly unlike a communicator, but the ramp flipped open, which was good enough for me.

As subtle as that was Sol, I wasn't suggesting trying to recreate Picard. He's trying to build his "own little collective"... so I was suggesting sculpting his own drones.
You don't like getting people's specific advice? That's cool. But that's what happens when nonsense like this gets encouraged.

Uh, Aban, that was a joke, based on your status as a known artist type. See? Because of the things you could do that Joe Random couldn't. Or so it was intended.
