Power Lords (Nacelle)

[Poe Ghostal]

Nacelle seems to be undergoing some growing pains, and I'm unsure yet whether I'll be on board for their Star Trek line (partly because they've said it will actually be a 1/10 line, not a true 1/12 line), but I am very intrigued by these. I hope we actually get to see them eventually.

The designs look cool, though.

Damn, I thought these were the hologram chest guys.

That was a great relief to me when I saw it because I knew I wouldn't be tempted. Hope the line does well, but glad I can tap out of it.

"Twist to transform". Ugh. Didn't care for that gimmick on the original figures. Doubt I'll care for it here either...it was just weird to have the back of the figure have an alternate portrait of the front.

I thought it was pop n swap torsos.

I remember four horsemen release an updated set of these and they were glyos compatible this is one of the few 80's lines that flew completely under my radar my entire life until recently. The twist to transform thing I dunno about

The original figure had a spring loaded waist, I imagine this one will just be twist his waist 180 to get the back to be the front so should be ok. I’ll be up for these after the dissapointing Four Horsemen attempts.

So.. they never released that figure, right?

I actually preordered one of Nacelle's Star Trek figures specifically because it is 1/10...

If these Power Lords figures were close to seven inches I would buy... but that announcement was at the 2024 SDCC and nothing since? Seems like maybe they aren't coming.

Of course I really wanted them to do Sectaurs in updated scale and articulatuon just like the Biker Mice and they didn't do that... so as much as I like my Biker Mice figures, Nacelle makes some weird choices.

I had a couple of them - Arkus and Sydot for sure, and I think Adam as well. I love that they were all designed by Wayne Barlow. I'll be all over this line if they ever actually get it out at retail.

I thought it was pop n swap torsos.

That's what I thought at first, but then saw the "twist to transform" thing, and immediately realized that they were looking to duplicate the concept from the original figure, just without the spring loaded thing. If it were swappable torsos, I'd consider it, but I have a less than zero interest in something that replicates the terrible idea from the original figure.

Their plans could change, but as of right now it looks like it will include the half-and-half torso and two separate swappable torsos (so, three torsos total).

Okay, now THAT is the smart move. Hoping these actually happen now.

 

[altcunningham]

I knew I had seen the poppable torsos.

 

[TheGillMan]

I'm VERY happy to be wrong in this case!

Oh well that's a horse of a different color. And they're definitely 1/12?
