There seem to be plenty of Heroclix for the JJ Abrams version of TOS, and lots of pseudo-crew for the Kirk era, but are there any 28mm models for the Picard era? |

Cool. A bit pricey with the $46.50 USD shipping to the UK though =p Which company was it by? I couldn't see from the box or the listing. |

Says Last Unicorn Games. Shipping from the states has become ridiculous. I stopped shipping items outside of the US because of the cost. Buyers were winning, then not paying me when I sent the invoice with the shipping costs. You could go with the rawcliffe figures which are about 1/35 scale. |

I rarely (if ever) buy from outside the UK. Similarly, I don't sell my models abroad. I feel your pain. |

Last Unicorn Games had lots of ambitions and intentions for lots of 28mm figure sets, and for lots of starship sets for their intended Engage! space combat game. They produced just one single boxed set for an away team before the licence was ended. I don't think the production run was very long, as the licence was granted to Decipher very soon after the release of this away team set. There probably aren't all that many of them around, relatively speaking. |

As an aside, it's a bit disappointing there are no Trek RPGs on the market right now. The ADB game is not the same (unless you only want to play in a pseudo-TOS era, not to take away from their efforts). Wonder why no one has picked up on the license? Paramount too expensive with licensing fees? Damon. |

They aren't official, or in the UK, but Victory Force has a number of 28mm not-TNG crew packs. link There are also a few trek cosplayers in their SuburbaKnights range. |

Wonder why no one has picked up on the license? Paramount too expensive with licensing fees? Yes. ST is the most expensive license in the world from what I've read. |

That's not terribly surprising though. Look at all the material it covers and fanboy-ism it attracts. |

Well, mongoose may some day get around to releasing thier version of Prime directive. After all it has only been two years since they anounced that they where going to do it, and it is still under development. I would like to think that with that long of a development period it would be the coolist thing ever. But…… owen |

Somebody does have the license. WizKids Games. They have the gaming license to all things Trek. |

more figures from Wixkids beyond the reboot crew would be cool but they obviously don't feel the market is out there |

Yo Owen, Mongoose isn't the hold up with Prime Directive that is firmly on the shoulders of ADB. I wouldn't mind some not-TNG figures in 15mm…. |

Isnt the License for traveller up pretty soon for mongoose? be a shame if they dragged it out so long they cant do it any more. I thought Jean was on top of everything two years ago, but when I checked in recently, it doesnt sound like they have actualy done much of anything. owen |
