And now we have packaging pics!<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Mr. Spock is captured as he appears in the classic episode &#8220;Devil in the<br \/>\nDark,&#8221; with a cave diorama and a Horta alien &#8212; the first Horta toy ever<br \/>\nmade! Spock himself will have interchangeable legs for standing or<br \/>\ncrouching poses, and interchangeable hands to hold a phaser or tricorder<br \/>\nor establish a mental link with the Horta. He even comes with an<br \/>\nalternate grimacing head!<\/p>\n<p>The second Star Trek Select figure, Captain Kirk, comes with an<br \/>\nengineering room diorama base, a second set of hands, a broken phaser<br \/>\nand a control rod, as well as a second set of legs so he can deliver a<br \/>\nflying kick to the reeling figure of Khan himself! That&#8217;s right, this<br \/>\nfigure is based on the episode &#8220;Space Seed,&#8221; and re-creates the first<br \/>\nbattle between the longtime foes.<\/p>\n<p>Both figures come in packed-to-the-gills Select packaging, and will be<br \/>\navailable at comic shops and specialty stores in early June.
