More info from the Comic Con front. Diamond Select Toys has announced the latest exclusive item available at this year's Comic Con, Captain Kirk!

A deluxe Star Trek Captain Kirk and Command Chair action figure will be available only from DST during this summers Comic Con. It will be packaged in a deluxe window box and retail for $25.00 at the DST booth.

Two other figures will be released later this year, one with Kirk in standard uniform and one with Captain Pike (The Cage).

I personally think the figure looks a little bland for my own tastes, but it's your dime.

Art Asylum has never sculpted Kirk right. They've nailed some of the other characters, but if they can't sculpt the most important character of the series, then somebody else deserves the license.

Looks pretty sweet to me! Here's hoping they finish off the whole series.

It looks more like Ben Affleck than Bill Shatner.

I think they took the head off a Jon Favreau "Foggy Nelson" figure from Daredevil...

Either that, or Clint Howard. "RONNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!"

what the hell is that THING sticking out from Kirks command chair?? I dont remember that from the original series at all (looks cool though)

so Art Asylum could dumb down this Kirk head and reuse it for Michael Myers from the Halloween movies!! YAY!!!
