I agree it definitely looks great.

From your video it almost looks like translucent resin?

I have the Picard, and while I love it, I wasn’t that impressed with the skin paint app.

The likeness on all three Star Trek pieces is near perfect. I don’t think any other manufacturer has had a run this good.


Even though I’m not a fan of the original series, your video had me considering purchasing this piece! I even checked out the stock count at my local store.

I’m currently rewatching DS9, so maybe after that I’ll rewatch the original movies at least.


If only those 1/6 scale EXO-6 figures I’ve been ordering were half as good as these Darkside pieces.

I don't know what they did but the likeness of the final piece is really better than the prototype. Gives me hope for the T-800.

I've never heard anything negative about Secret Compass. As far as I know, they're a trusted seller.

Wow, he came out great Nearmint, and I'm not one for translucent resin either. Congrats.
Well, I'll see if I can snatch this one somehow.
