Title: 1/6 Next Gen Figures
Post by: wraith1701 on June 14, 2009, 09:18:50 AM
A Japanese plastic model company called PLATZ is releasing a series of 1/6 scale Star Trek: Next Gen figures.  These articulated figures appear to be comparable to the Premium Format Star Wars figures produced by Sideshow.

These fully articulated figures appear to have pretty decent fabric reproductions of the TNG style uniforms, and come with accessories (Phasers, Tricorders, Bat'Leth).

They will be available in July for about $130 U.S.

Worf's hair looks a little gray, but I like them.

You'd have to see them in person to make a call on Worf's hair. It might be a lighting issue.

You could easily paint his hair darker, bit of hair dye never did anyone any harm ha ha
