As much as I love Star Trek, I have to say that I didn't care for the Playmates action figures. Actually, I really didn't like them. The new figures from Art Asylum, however, are freakin' brilliant! The figure is superbly sculpted. I'm in awe at the care given to accurately represent this character in plastic. I am also impressed with their combined use of soft rubber and rigid plastic to provide a durable yet flexible toy. The paint job is amazing as well. I've got him standing by my monitor as I write this, and I'm so impressed with how good he looks. One other thing I like about this figure is that he is very posable, yet isn't sculpted into some permanent "action" pose that makes him difficult to play with and prevents him from standing on his own. The current line of Star Wars toys suffer from that fatal flaw and I have quit purchasing them because of that flaw. I would have liked Hasbro to have done with the Star Wars line, what Art Asylum has done with these Enterprise toys. Phlox is highly detailed, very posable, stands on his own, has great play value, and even comes with another head and set of hands for various situations. Sure, he's not that educational, but he's an action figure. This is an excellent design and an excellent execution of a concept.

Offered only as a premium for signing up..., the availability of the Doctor Phlox Away Team Action Figure as an exclusive..., is a treat-and-a-half! All of the figures in the ART ASYLUM line of STAR TREK toys are simply fantastic, but the arrival of ENTERPRISE's jolly chief medical officeris a welcome addition to completing the set of adventures.

Not as full featured as the other figures in the assortment, Dr. Phlox is still a vital part of this collection and a must for all fans!

Let's face it, there is no educational value in this toy. Unless you consider that it's the first action figure of it's species in the Star Trek universe. Art Asylum has again captured a great likeness, this time of John Billingsley's character Dr. Phlox. While the body doesn't quite match the fuller frame of the actor/character, the facial sculpt is once again a dead ringer. Kudos to the artists in the Asylum.

Another excellent Star Trek figure produced by Art Asylum.

I was excited to get the toy but noticed that it does not state anywhere on the box that it is a TRU exlclusive, like all the other exclusive's do from TRU. It's cool though because no where on any of the package backs does it have his character as available. I think it is a great looking toy!! Good buy!

The head sculpt/scan is great and the articulation is ok [a bit better than the earlier Enterprise figures and that horrible rubber on the bodies]. It was hard to put the power pack and tubes in place on the figure.

My son got this toy yesterday and the head has already started to pop off. This is just from normal play not typical rough 7 yr old play either!
Also the tubes that connect from the helmet to the backpack do not connect well.
He likes playing with it but he's very disappointed that it keeps breaking.

The way they make it is just so lifelike and surereal that i would get another so that i have one a box hidden and one for display, if you are a star trek fan it would be a shame to have to keep it in the box not displaying it proudly! Art Asylum has out done itself and the price is so reasonable!

This figure by art asylum is very cool and displays well with all of the other star trek away team figures.And will be quite valuble in the years to come.At $12.99 it is a bargain especially compared to ebay and the people who try to rip you off,buying these on here and trying to sell them for two to three times what they paid,NOT!!!!
