I always liked the toy ships. I wonder if anyone has made the Scimitar into a model or light up toy. Anybody know?

These look like quality buys… I like Khan.

nice wrap up of the new toys. I want to thank John (and Alec) for helping TrekMovie.com expand into memorabelia, collectables, toys and comics, etc. Your expertise is greatly appreciated.

I collect a lot of the toy ships, I have the light up TWOK era ENT but I like the sound of that TV era ENT.

The Diamond stuff is terrific but the MEGO stuff is phenomenal.

Kudos, John, for that excellent and thorough report. I love news I can use.

I have a huge box of Micromachines ships. I have no idea whether they’ve retained ANY value. Judging by e-Bay, they haven’t. Still, it’s comforting to have them… and one day I will have a basement to display them. (Getting married really puts a crimp in your Trekkabitionism.)
These look even better. If they appear in stores, I’m SO getting them.

There is a store in Knoxville TN that sells some Diamond Select Trek items, but they’re WAY too expensive for me. It is nice to see the figures up close and personal though. They are really high quality. I look forward to their Enterprises and Kahn. I’ll have to buy my mom a Kahn. She loves him.

That classic E better be the right color, with proper nacelle caps, engine balls, etc.! (Can’t afford the Master Replicas version…)

Here are more pictures of some of the toys. I was really surprised to see the DS9 figures on there this morning. Since I had no idea they were making them. Its nice to see Ezri finally get a figure of her own. Now im just waiting for them to come out the Defiant.

Anyone remember the throwaway cartoon in Starlog a few years back that was an advertisement for TNG toys? It had Picard in a box and on the front it said “Star Trek: The Next Generation ACTION-LESS FIGURES!” That just popped into my head when I looked at the Pike toy sitting in his chair.

A real nod has to go to the online stores, and I’d give special mention to Rick of NewForceComics for ponying up the dough to get many of the exclusives made. Way back when Enterprise was new, he paid for the uniformed Trip Tucker figure, and more recently he enabled the creation of the exclusive movie uniform Riker & Troi set. It is too bad that the line has so little support from retailers that individual retailers have to take on these figures as exclusives in order to have them made, but as long as that is the situation, thank goodness for people like Rick who are willing to take the huge financial risk to make that happen.

Where’s the Rain Robinson action figure?
She’s got her own show, it’s a calamity.
Trek gives you Wings! Trek Rules!

Has it really been 25 years since TWOK? That is frightening.

I distinctly recall going to see it in ‘82 with my uncle, the audience was hyped and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house when our friend gave his life for the crew and ship.

Star Trek is back with a vengeance, having been gone since ‘91 it’s been gone FAR too long. Welcome back Trek, we missed you.

looking forward to the megos…..kirk, spock,and the klingon are still rather inexpensive but the romulan is outrageously priced….and i believe the 1st andorian will be cool. any mego fans out there?

Cool! I still have the MEGO toys from the 70’s, even the Enterprise set thingy that folded up into a carrying case. Wonder how much that’s all worth…

they all guide quite a bit but the true way to find out is to see what its selling for on ebay….also i correct myself before someone else does..the andorian mego was made in the 3rd wave of figures,,,,go to megomuseum.com to see more tos megoes and some very cool custom ones.

I like the new Corgi 40th Anniversary line; here’s the 1701:

I’ve always wanted something of a similar scale and quality of the 1701 (Refit). If this line sells well enough, Corgi will likely expand the line. My personal wish list:

* 1701 (refit, *not* the 1701-A)
* Galileo (TOS)
* Constellation (remastered version from TDM)
* Klingon D-7

That’s about it. I’d love to see some peripheral jobs — the Tholian Spinner comes to mind — but if I get a 1701 Refit I’ll be a happy Trekker.

And fwiw I still have both my Gorn and Balok (puppet guy) from the Mego line.

A Mego Romulan figure! These were only seen as proto types before! I wonder what the asking price will be for these. I still have all my original Mego figures except for the reallt hard to find ones. I’m still waiting for DST’s TOS Enterprise. I thought it was to be released late last year, them I heard end of January. I have the one that came out several years ago, but DST looks much better!

10-I remember that cartoon,it was the Picard actionless figure,”I sit and talk and talk….” also the accesories were a book of Shakespeare and a cup of tea,IIRC.

they did make the romulan mego…saw it today on ebay for 1800.00. I also saw some really cool custom megos…..khanspaceseed,,,,,decker,kor,kang,sulu,chekov,etc. i wish i knew how to add a link to these posts , i would have added that.

I don’t care for most Star Trek Collectibles, especially the dolls/action figures, but those dioramas for Amok Time and City of the Edge of Forever look great! I’ll have to purchase them when they become available.

Note to CBS Digital:

The Diamond Select Toys version of the original TV Enterprise has a terrific colour-scheme, and it ain’t “battleship grey”… It much lighter, LIKE the way the original opticals came across on T.V. This much darker version of yours, and therefore much duller looking, has been one of the disappoints with your work on this remaster for me. Lighten up!
