I don't mind the idea in principal, but he really deserved a MUCH more epic sendoff than the movie gave him. But among it's many other issues, the entire fight between Picard, Soran and Kirk just looks so incredibly cheap and slapped together. And like something out of a low-budget scifi movie...

Yeah I'm a massive Aliens fan, but the original movie is just so much more gorgeous and beautifully directed. And except for a couple shots looks absolutely timeless. Whereas Aliens feels very much like a product of the 1980s.

And are played by completely different actors, which makes it kinda hard to feel the loss that strongly.

I liked it that first time in the theater, but now so much of it makes me cringe, from the cheesy humor to a blubbering Picard to the sappy Christmas scene. And Soran and the Duras sisters make for some incredibly lame villains that barely would have been worth an episode of the TV series. Then...

Yeah the costume is beautifully sculpted, but it still seems an odd fit to me with the silicone head, and for 2K I would kind of expect to see a fabric outfit. Especially since it's not exactly the most complicated superhero outfit in the world. And even Sideshow managed it (for the most part)...

Honestly I'd rather have a Demora Sulu over Harriman. But will probably pass on anything from Generations as I'm just... not a fan.

Received my Vader from Timewalker yesterday. And yeah he does look extremely damn cool. Although I did have to move the belt down over the top of the codpiece to minimize it at least a bit. Lol. And as expected the new led system is clunky as hell and hard to hide the wires for, but the lights...

Looking forward to seeing the new sculpt, but I wasn't really feeling the pose, fully sculpted outfit, or drab looking colors on this anyway, so will likely still pass. I can only hope P1/Blitzway tackles a Reeve Superman someday.

Yeah I switched mine to the QMX sculpt as well. The head is a bit oversized, but still preferable to the Exo one.

Yikes. Suddenly the Sideshow Munny doesn't look so bad. 😄

I thought it was odd at the time, but the collar-less look has actually grown on me quite a bit since then. Makes the uniform seem a bit sleeker and less 1980s.

Oh yeah, Garrett would be an automatic purchase for me. And I'd take her over a lot of other supporting characters we're getting.

Honestly even in the heyday of DC and the Snyderverse, I don't think this would have sold very well. It's just a very dorky looking, ugly ass figure. :lol

Yeah I'm honestly not sure how many of those accessories I'd still be interested in at this point. Maybe Nomad and the TWOK chair, but don't know if I still need Data's Ops station. And think I'd pass on the Borg alcove now.

I enjoyed the movie the first time through but found it cringey as hell on a rewatch. So don't really want to be reminded too much of it. Even if the figure looks pretty cool on its own.
