Star Trek Toy Discussion Thread
I don't know if there is one of these so I made one. Hopefully we can discuss any Star Trek collectable toys that you have. I actually don't have any yet but am wondering if anybody has any of the Next Generation action figures from the 90's? I saw some on Ebay but wanted to know what they are like and how posable they are etc.

off the top of my head, i can remember having:
Lights and Sounds TNG K'Vort Class BOP
Lights and Sounds Enterprise D (Generations) with battle damage
Lights and Sounds Borg Sphere from First Contact
Lights and Sounds Defiant
Lights and Sounds Enterprise B
Lights and Sounds Enterprise E from First Contact
As far as figures go, i bought a bunch on ebay before Paypal screwed me over. I have a bunch of first contact figures, and a few of the TNG ones. never opened em, but i like how they sculpted the hands to hold the phasers properly. the season 3 riker figure is probably my favourite star trek figure ever.
i had ds9 worf in his season 4 gear. sisko in the same uniform. i had the talking commander riker figure.
when they started doing the 6" figures recently, i bought season 6 riker and first contact picard...
i have a bunch of prop replicas too, though not all of them are fully constructed just yet.
its all back in ireland, so i don't know em all...

paypal insisted that i could only use a credit card, even though the method of payment i was using (disposable credit card vouchers) was perfectly legal.
they're poseable enough. shoulder, elbow, and sometimes wrist twists. v shaped crotches iirc, with knee articulation. it's what you'd expect from a figure in the early 90s.

I saw the DC figures at Target the other day. I see they have the 3/34" scale ones now but I didn't buy them. Do you have the small figures? That's primarily the ones I collect now.
nah, i go for the 6" ones, though i havent bought any since before i moved. i bought captain marvel and regeneration suit superman most recently...

I've bought quite a few of the star wars vehicles, I've got: The millennium falcon, slave 1 (from AOTC), AT-AT, Tei fighter and...lukes speeder...oh and anakins pod racer...the rest of the Star wars stuff is just characters, got a few rare boxed ones 🙂
dang, sounds like quite a collection. when i was a kid (in the mid 80s) i had tons of the kenner figures and such, but over the years they disappeared. in recent years i got back in to it, but only have around a dozen figures...
My cousin had a whole load of star wars action figures when he was a kid, the vintage stuff that would cost like...well alot nowa days, and he had taken them with him in a box somewhere (on holiday perhaps) and when he got in a taxi he left them behind by accident..he never got them back, if it had been me I woulda been gutted.
But yeah some of the ones I have were a real b!tch to get, most of them I got off ebay 🙂
