If you've read my reviews of the other two pieces in this wave then you already know just about what I have to say on this one. It really is more of the same. A repack figure from the "Basic" Broken Bow line and a bridge piece that although great, is the exact same piece as the T'Pol set. I believe this was the first deluxe set to be produced, simply because the science section is identical even down to the sound chip used in this base. While I love the sculpt details, paint, railing and floor design, the sounds are a bit muddied and in my opinion, just not necessary since they don't have sound bites from the actors who manned the stations represented. It was an outstanding concept and had great potential but because of DST's cost cutting management and greed, the entire line suffered and...[See More]

Like the other figures in this wave, this is a strait repack of the "Basic" Broken Bow figure (minus the extra personal accessories). The Captains Chair is great. I love the idea behind this bridge build pack in. The chair looks just as it should and is in perfect scale for the figure. The only thing that surprised me is that the sound effects comes from the base, just like the other bridge sections, not the chair itself. It would have been nice to have the sounds and some light effects come from the chair like the other Captains Chairs produced. However, given the fact that you get more than just a chair, I guess it is ok because you have connectivity with the floor sections of the other sets and a back rail for someone (Phlox or Shran) to possibly lean against. All the sculpts and paint...[See More]

After looking exhaustively, and negotiating shamelessly for this figure, I finally got one and was both delighted and disappointed. The best part of this set is definitely the bridge section, however, it is also the part with the most fault. The fault being two fold. 1st, the console is exactly the same as the one for Reed. There is nothing different to give it even the slightest distinction. Although the scale and details are fantastic it is just a repack item with a different figure. The second most glaring fault is the sound effects. They are also identical. You don't even get T'Pols voice with this one. I found this to be an inexcusable infraction on DST's part. Not just lazy, but blatant disregard for the consumer. To give us a repack of the "basic" line action figure with a repack...[See More]
