First pictures from the Toy Fair.

Trek action figures that actually look like, get this, the characters. Who'd have thought we'd live to see the day? Beautiful detail on these puppies. I may actually have to buy one to stick over my desk.

Wow, that is a really likeness, especially with T'Pol. That is so much better than what I've seen in a long time.

Oh, please Mark, we *ALL* know the real reason for your dissapointment is the lack of a "Hoshi and T'Pol in Decon Undies" set!

She'll come... just in several months time. I read somewhere that it could be three years before they release enough "deluxe" playsets to put together a complete bridge. The comm station will presumably come with regular-duty-uniform Hoshi. Phlox is in the works, too.

I think the EVA suits are being released now because Art Asylum (understandably) wants to show off. The sculpting is top-notch. More statues than toys.

I'm all for 'Enterprise' action figures, but I'm also kind of glad that other movies and such are getting their day in the toy stores ...

Kurt Russell in tight jeans? You stick to that, Jeff, and I'll join Mark in hoping for the Hoshi/T'Pol/Cutler decon playset.

SWEET!!! They're making a phase pistol toy!! Don't take it to the airport.

I see they've accuarately portrayed T'Pol's...errr...proportions.

I wonder if they gave Klaang (Zeus) his lazy eye... [Roll Eyes]

Very cool stuff.

Tom, apparently unlike you and Mark, I don't beat off to action figures. [Smile]
