The Playmates 1990's Star Trek line is my favorite toy line of all time. It's one of the few toy lines I've completed. A couple years ago I bought an extension for the engineering playset from an independent seller that was a literal childhood dream to get. What fans are doing with 3D printing is amazing.
The old playmates line was one of those I consistently hunted when it came out. I've got buckets of them in storage. Especially favorite was the gorn.😛🍿
These are incredible. I really want to collect the TNG Playmates figures but I just can't get over the spread leg pose they're forced into when sitting.
@@seanstoyroom2021 In that size run, yup. Annoyingly, like the Generations figures, a couple of the main cast are missing from release I think.. Geordie in this case I believe, Riker in the Generations line. I repainted a Thomas Riker from DS9 to bring the contingent up to full crew. I didn't bother with the "bigger" First Contact figures as they were the wrong size, although I bought a Lily by mistake without checking the size difference.
This is all very similar to what I wish Playmates had continued on with, especially with elements like Picard's area, or imagine a holodeck set that could have come with endless addon props/backgrounds. I'm still trying to find a complete bridge playset, and then a way to display it all, and these sets look like really great new add ons!
Wow these look really good I love the playmates Star Trek figures. I would like to have these but I just don’t have the money and even if i did I don’t think I would want to get these they are cool but I think could get something else I would want more.
It's wild that I have a similar story. My mom and I watched all the next generation seasons till it ended. She bought me all of those figures in wave 1. I ended up giving her back Data cause she loved him and I had moved on with other lines. But Wow that 10 forward. I would have used that with my toybiz xmen for sure haha
Mr Eltenda I actually follow your channel as well yeah there's a few Star Trek groups that belong to on Facebook where some of the people make these it's great stuff,I've bought a couple of smaller pieces but the price tag right now is Hefty and mainly because I think it's it's a new thing still 3D printing but you have a great Channel I really enjoy it a lot
Seeing Ten Forward makes me wish more Tom Corbett, Space Cadet fans were still around to see these possibilities; I bet we'd have Space Academy sets left and right on RUclips. Hmmm, that is an idea.
Is that Ryker's twin, from that one episode, in the gold science/engineering uniform? I was wondering why he wasn't in red for a minute...wish they would've kept him around for more episodes, like they did with Crichton's twin on Farscape.
This is why I’m hoping resin 3D printers become more used later on. The quality of models the printers can produce is wild now. I’d imagine resin printers making these same models within noticeable waffling. Pretty sure Hasbro partnered with a resin printing company to even do the selfie series face sculpts.
In hindsight Playmates really dropped the ball on playsets bitd, how do you roleplay without a helm, furniture, places seen in the show? In a way they sort sealed the fate on the line as older fan collectibles often left in packaging for display purposes Ie. heavy on characters, light on locations. Off the top of my head the Holodeck certainly opens up lots of playset options, Holmes, Robin Hood, Noir. Just for collecting sake Data's living quarters would be fun, Spot included. ;) The slice lines are getting smaller and tighter as the tech progresses but I think resin printers probably are the best at small scale stuff like toys Eg. the built in smoothness. Very cool though, makes the old figures more appealing.
These are cool, and I think I still have most of my Playmates figures from then? If not, a certain StL SoCo shop you wiped out after your review has a bunch of the figures that nobody really touched. Ask Robo and VeeBs. I met them there a couple months ago on their way to watch you rassle. 😂🖖 I really need to dust off my 3D printer. If it even still works? It’s a filament feed, but I’ve been wanting to switch to resin, which needs an aftercare set that is almost as much as a basic resin printer. 🙄
Hello pixel, Dan, my name is Damian. I was wondering, if you could possibly send me the millennium, falcon, legacy toy vehicle that you reviewed on your channel 13 years ago ? Because I’ve been trying to Find the ship online, but, I don’t have the money to purchase it, is it possible you could send it to me for free through the mail?
I got to be honest the people that are doing 3D printing are great, I even bought a couple of smaller pieces the problem is and this is a huge problem it is super expensive. I mean you could spend $1,000 in no time, most people can't afford that you know I mean I wish I do think that once 3D printing becomes more mainstream and the machines get cheaper down the road the price will go down but you're right this is awesome stuff
I have a 5‘ x 2 1/2 glass coffee table that I turned into the enterprise. Level one -the bridge Level two - engineering, transporter room, Level three - shuttlecraft bay

I'm so glad there are a million ST figures. Means they are cheap, plentiful, cheap and this still fun to collect.

The fans are doing the best work
Really setting a scene in Ten Forward there with figures of Lwaxana Troi and Thomas Riker
Holy cow so cool! To think as a 70s kid I did the same thing using cardboard, drawing paper and crayon lol
Very impressive tng set! Love the attention to detail. Feels legit.
This guy at Dazbots is amazing! He picks up where Playmates left off. I have the ready room table set. I would love to eventually get all his sets!
I miss my old Star Trek figure. These custom sets are amazing
Now they to do the Captain's ready room
Great Review Dan my wife and i are Super Star Trek fans she collect the characters i collect the ships 😁🖖
I have pretty much all the Playmates figures. Now I just need these playsets! Nice video, Dan.
These are incredible. I really want to collect the TNG Playmates figures but I just can't get over the spread leg pose they're forced into when sitting.
Dying to get my hands on a bunch of these sets! Absolutely a dream come true!!
I don't have the money or space for this, but I do love it. I feel like I have to give Dan a Playmates Kirk when I finally meet him, now.
I have a complete set of the Playmates figures. Took me a few years but worth it!
Do you have the First Contact Figures?
@@seanstoyroom2021 In that size run, yup. Annoyingly, like the Generations figures, a couple of the main cast are missing from release I think..

@@SimonChinook I wonder if a Star Trek First Contact figure could hold a MOTU Accessory.
@@seanstoyroom2021 tricky.. Playmate's Star Trek figures don't even hold their own accessories that well!
@@SimonChinook That's why the accessories for my Star Trek Figures are in small Ziplock bags at their feet.
Dude!!! That’s awesome. Next level.
A lot of folks forget that Galoob, not Playmates, had the *original* license to TNG toys, during season 1 🖖
I have a Galoob Tasha Yar Figure that I found at a Toy Convention.
Yep those figures are cool, I have the set.
The only Playmates figures I have left are the TOS bridge crew I've been eyeing up that captains chair and console.

Does the Ten Forward come with a bottle or Romulan Ale? 😄

This is the future of toy collecting. Not crowd funding by corporations, not price gauging or chasing away fans.

Long live the Ferengi!
That's pretty epic!
Really neat indeed!

i wonder if they will ever make a refit uss enterprise ncc.1701. -A bridges from kirk era that would be awsome....

These toys are so cute, better videos of better known collections, Ghostbuster, Thundercats, Toxic crusaders greetings
Maybe I guess they will be making the 2009 set
What about the original Mego 8" figures? Does anyone make them?
