Captain Kirk, Sonic Screwdriver and Hover Board


The Captain James T. Kirk Exclusive Premiere Edition Star Trek figure from Star Trek: The Original Series from Art Asylum/Diamond Select Toys is a ‘must-have’ for any Star Trek toy collector.

Packaged in a small black box with lid the Kirk six-inch, fully articulated figure looks just like William Shatner as Kirk.

Articulated at the neck shoulders, elbows, wrists, waist, knees and ankles the figure poses easily in various action stances.

Paint application is spot on with subtle flesh tones, piping on Kirk’s sleeves, nice minute details on the figure’s face and hands and tonal differences between the cloths, flesh and boots. 

The figure is held snug in place in a form-fitting plastic bubble, as are the accessories.

Extras include a second right hand for holding larger objects, a Tricorder, Medical Tricorder, both an open and a closed Communicator, a hand Phaser and a Rifle Phaser as seen in Where No Man Has Gone Before.

The Tricorder even have straps and flip open readout panels.

Two LootCrate Exclusive miniatures worth purchasing are the BBC Doctor Who Sonic Spork fashioned after the Doctor’s famous Sonic Screwdriver.

The Spork comes in a slip case box that holds the Spork securely in a foam cradle.

The silver Spork tapers into a replica of the Doctor’s Sonic Screwdriver’s complete with copper, black, silver and green details.

The Back To The Future II Hover Board 1:5 Scale Replica sits in a lidded box and is cradled in a foam sleeve.

The Hover Board miniature replica sports the same Mattel Toys color scheme as the original and appears to float over a reflective mirror base.

The board detaches from the base revealing its Hoover mechanisms.

Details and paint application on all the accessories are precise, clean and accurate.
