Well, at 5", they're reasonably in scale with Beast Wars. Both the originals and the new ones.

Needed to be 3 and 3/4.
Really not impressed.
Much money saved.

Size and appearance aside, I have a feeling that Enterprise will be the red headed stepchild, this go 'round.

I have to say I guess I was hoping for something a bit more akin to Star Wars Black, with an accent on scale. Jonathan Frakes is a very tall man, and it'd be nice to have him larger than the inevitable generic Ferengi who are typically not very large. Even though Playmates isn't particularly known for high end figures like that.
But like, you know, a lot of lines have found a medium for having both kid oriented action figures, and premium adult oriented action figures, too. Both Mattel and Hasbro run this balance pretty well.

The blue goo one has 14 points of articulation?

I would've thought that goo would've had much more than that.

They do look amazing though. I thought they were promo pics from the show until I looked more closely.

Those are terrifying. I'd be concerned that they'd actually come to life and kill me in my sleep. Or, worse, come to life and just abandon this barbaric civilisation, since we're not advanced enough to deal with...

I saw this in-person in a display at a Playmobil store in Berlin the other day. It's certainly pretty, but it still doesn't look remotely like a €500 toy.

It used to be people like us. But the "high end" market has exceeded our means.
