Just noticed after uploading that a few pictures got duplicated at the end of the video after the credits roll... oops hah gonna leave it up! Thanks for supporting the channel everyone 😀 🙏
I got my TMP Kirk today, and the package, the figure itself are all top notch! The likeness of William Shatner is near Hot Toys quality so I am more than happy I pulled the trigger on him.
Amazing!!! Thank you so much for letting me know! Great hearing this from a community member! And congrats on the pickup!! A little jealous I passed for this one. Holding out for TWOK! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel also!!
I ended up getting him from sideshow on a flexpay plan. I think it's an incredible sculpt and it's a Kirk I don't have. I have an original series Kirk but I don't have this one and I like that it's an older Shatner and the price, for a sixth scale figure in today's market, is insanely low. So yes, I'm going down the rabbit hole. I'm on the fence about the Spock and McCoy from this movie but...we'll see what happens.
Little jealous hah I decided to pass on this guy. Hoping I don't regret it down the line! Congrats on locking one in! Very awesome pick up and excellent price imo. Thanks for tuning in and supporting the channel as well!
It's your choice and money, so only you can obviously make the decision to get them or not. But since you got Admiral Kirk, I would say if you have the means to get Spock and McCoy i think the best decision would be to get them, but that's just my opinion. I doubt we'll see these same versions of these figures again in 1/6 scale, they're very limited for a reason. And this version of Kirk is already very expensive and I have a feeling Spock and McCoy will be as well.
Wow can't belive you got one off exo! That's great! Legit can't belive how fast it sold out hah crazy! Congrats on the pickup and thanks for tuning in!
And I forgot to mention that from the day I ordered him, 11/17 to delivery today, 11/29 was ten days total ( live in NYC) , so I can say that the delivery time was very fast from when I ordered him. Waiting on his right hand man Spock to go up for pre order so he can join his Captain…
Agreed! I wonder if they will do another batch? Also I'm surprised to see side show have a pre order window open but sold out on exo without a edition size being advertised. The 21 day release window is nice but there will be a ton of people out there who miss out. Thanks for watching!
We can't. Our facility is built on Warp Drive. Have to keep the Warp Bubble in optimal condition. I only have 3.5 years left in this venture. Have to move fast. There are still a lot of characters to make. We want a Museum.
I'm going to go all in on most of the exo-6 figures. No, their headsculpts are not as good as hot toys or some of the more established companies. But these guys are brand new, and if we don't support them now they'll go under before they have the chance to improve and get to that level, which they will in time. And if they did go under, don't expect anybody else to pick these up and keep going, support them now or lose them forever.
Twok definitely!!! If I get a Kirk that's where it will be from. I enjoy tmp a lot more though on my re-watch in theater and then 4k! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel good sir
He looks good, especially the Spock and Bones. But I prefer The Wrath of Khan film, so looking to pre-order them instead. With saying that ... I might pull the trigger, because I do like Kirk's uniform, Spock face sculp/rope and Bones with the beard.
I think either collection of these original cast will be epic for a collection! I try to stick to my favorite versions of characters! Wrath of Khan, search for Spock and Undescovered country are my favorite films with these gents so that's what I'd want most from the OG line! Thanks for tuning in!
really dissapointed in exo-6 i ordered 3 figs from them, i never got an email about this, i ordered from sideshow but i know i won't get it, i never got sulu from them
Dude did they cancel sulu on you or it just hasn't shipped yet? That sucks!! Sorry to hear about your experience. I got my data from a community member and love it! I hope the experience turns around for you though if you keep buying. I think the low stock on their site doesn't make much sense for this one without announcing an edition size! Thanks for watching though!!
oh wow. already?!@sold out on Exo-6. Either that was an extremely small run or people REALLY are fiening for a Admin Kirk. Personally I'd go for Wrath of Khan version but thats just me. Happy for those who got it. I'm waiting on Sisko. Come on BBTS. Hit me with that instock notice.
Haha no doubt eh! I'd also lean toward TWOK if I were gonna go original series. Happy to see the figure do well though. It's been teased for a while! Thanks for watching bud
I'm not a fan of the TMP Starfleet uniforms, but this one is the exception. Beautiful looking tailoring and I think they've done a 8.5 to 9 capture of Shatner. He's not the easiest to sculpt apparently, much the same as Ford & Mortensen. Spock looks like he'll be coming with the Vulcan IDIC symbol from one photo I've seen. Hope Bones comes with the caduceus symbol
Love this comment! Bang on hah I agree if the others come with some of those inclusions, this line will be epic. Dare I say grail status for all them hah maybe!! Thanks for tuning in!
This is a great looking figure but MAN some of the photoshopped photos look terrible in the skin tone. The one on the white background looks incredible! Congrats to those who got this
Agreed! I'm also surprised how limited it's been without any indication of edition size! A lot of folks have been stoked about this guy coming though. Thanks for watching! 🤙
Great film because of the story. The most current remastered version was so needed because of the rushed effects work from its initial release. As for this figure it’s a pass. The outfit reminds me of Space 1999 TV series. I’m hoping they’ll make figures from the Search For Spock. I connected more with the characters in that film. The design of the equipment from the hand phaser, communicator to the tricorders were really well designed. Unlike the Wrath of Khan where the communicators were huge like bricks and the phase look like simple carved shapes. The motion picture just had wrist bands for communicators. As for the sculpt it’s not quite there, it looks like they might have used the same sculptors who work on Big Chief figures. Those folks are horrible at sculpts especially women faces. They messed up Jane Seymour’s likeness from the Live and Let Die figure.
Well written comment sam! Thank you! Totally hear you! Nostalgia for me helps me see past some of those pain points but I would love to see more from the later films especially Search for Spock. They have teased Christopher Lloyd's character and that would be bad ass for the collection! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel!
Agreed I gave it 8.5 to 9 which is probably a bit generous. The price isn't bad though. Not paying hot toys pricing for example. I'm a next Gen guy though so I'm hoping for even better from that line! Thanks for supporting the channel and watching
Just noticed after uploading that a few pictures got duplicated at the end of the video after the credits roll... oops hah gonna leave it up! Thanks for supporting the channel everyone 😀 🙏
maaan, i hope exo 6 makes a gul dukat figure eventually since they’ve done the sisko 🙏
I totally agree!! A Cardasian figure would look epic if done well. Especially one as bad ass as Gul. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel!
100% sisko, quark and dul dukat are my musts. But I'd say there next one will be Kira to throw in a female character.
Absolutely 💯

Hi Ben, ordered this on EXO 6, sold out in three hours! As an older ST fan, great moment and first ST movie!
Wow can't belive you got one off exo! That's great! Legit can't belive how fast it sold out hah crazy! Congrats on the pickup and thanks for tuning in!

Damn that's so fast! Love to hear it. I think we may see Spock between now and Tuesday next week! Stay tuned 🖖
Preordered it from Sideshow. Its about time they got around to the OG. Gonna get all the figures from this movie. They even teased a bearded McCoy!!!
Dude it looks great! Stoked for you! Bearded McCoy with this guy will look amazing!! Thanks for watching!
@@TheBenThomasShow Update. Kirk is now sold out at BBTS. Sideshow still has him.
Oo so freaking tempting ha 😅😅
Mr. Nanjin is obviously a hard-core Star Trek fan. Why he didn't make more of these, I don't understand???
Agreed! I wonder if they will do another batch? Also I'm surprised to see side show have a pre order window open but sold out on exo without a edition size being advertised. The 21 day release window is nice but there will be a ton of people out there who miss out. Thanks for watching!

I'm with you on that! Thanks for watching 👀
got 2 kirk and 2 spock b4 they sold out
Heck ya!! That's awesome! Thanks for tuning in!
Waiting for TNG but I do love Kirk and the original films was not a fan of TMP film though or uniforms TWOK might draw me in

They never shipped even after they were long out so I cancelled and was able to get one from exo. Sideshow refunded all but the deposit of course
