Thanks guys will let you know once they are available again

I might repaint the shirts in red,blue and yellow as I am not sure about the green the idea was to move away from the obvious Star Trek use as I thought people would get what they are anyway

Now I think the coloured shirts would work better

So will these casts be as difficult to assemble as the last ones? I'll still get them either way, as I have a love-hate relationship with these figures. I was just hoping maybe you'd improve them somehow.

Hi Michka

Sorry they will be pretty much as they were apart from the removal of the badges as I think the badges take them a bit close copyright wise

On the bright side I did think about expanding them by using the original bodies and adding fixed arms & heads to make up some new one piece castings

This will of course depend on how well they sell but it is something I would like to do

We have picked up Matakishi's original starship crew which we are in the process of re-moulding and looking at releasing them early next month





Good News Indeed! I will have to place and order

I'll still be buying some. As difficult to glue them together as they are, they're the best Not-Trek figures available. The chance to get new arms is really cool. I have a lot of your Federation Troopers already and I'm damn impressed with the quality you produce, so this is all good news.

Here's a bargain for you. They are a bit on the tall side, but for the price a real bargain...

That's it!

Course, not sure how postage will work out for the UK. We're ALL whining about how shippage cross pond has been getting both more dear AND just a pain in the arse.

Ebay has been especially painful. Buying stuff from the US seems to go through some expensive shipping service now where you also have to pay import duties up front.  >:(

Just a quick update that I have heard from my mould maker and I am expecting the moulds back for the star ship crew anyday so hopefully we will be looking at a release this weekend if all goes to plan

Technicians are a good idea so I will add them to my list of to do's no promises on when though
