A peek at the Star Trek Horta box

[mego73]

Someone got a Mego sized Horta from Ebay (was that you, wyldpny?) and got me to make a box for him (oops, I mean her).

Here's the top and the front of what will be a window box so far.

Why did they make the Horta look like a giant Pan Pizza?

Still it's a great box. You put a lot of effort into it, I can tell.

Nice clear images, bright colors and all that neat stuff.

[mego73]

I saw that one. I am not sure if that's the one gotten by the person I am doing the box for. Like I said, maybe wyldpny has made a Horta.

[Mikey]

That is excellent, Mike !!!!!!!!!

[fallensaviour]

Very impressive!!

Agreed,nothing else to be said except I want to see the horta and a fig in action.

Hey, I really like the way you did the rock formation. It adds a play dimension to the box. Very nice! :2thumbsup:

[Captain]

Very nice. What other Trek toys did you showcase on the back of the package?

[mego73]

The back is not yet made up but it will mostly use the cameos from the back of the Alien card and maybe a new thing here or there.

Great packaging. Very cool stuff.

[Meule]

Fantastic box Mike, really like that cave design

[Tyme2tyme]

Very quality work. I can imagine seeing it on the shelves at Woolco in the 70's, JOHN

Great design. I too like how the rocks make the window. I also like that Kirk's phaser is "Mego blue."

[mego73]

I also gave him the three sleeve bands, Mego style.

[AAAAA]

now a sticker had to be made and put on the box thats states , can be used with Action Jackson ,Planet of the apes or World greatest superheros

[Meule]

Why would you use a Horta with POTA or WGSH?

[PNGwynne]

Terrific work, Mike.

I'm surprised that no-one at the museum offers a resin custom of the Horta for general purchase. I remember seeing seeing one tricked out with fur fringe and made to fit over a toy car. Cool!

Mego was putting that sticker on a bunch of its playsets & figures like the lost continent and Enterprise

[wyldpny]

Sorry, that wasn't me who made the one you are making the box for since I just finished making my first Horta only yesterday.
PM'd you about the box...

It's a good idea but it's a latter Mego box, made to look like the stuff they did in 1975 or 76 and they were only doing that sort of thing in 1973-4

[thunderbolt]

Great stuff, and something I'd like to see happen for real.

[DCSTING]

Great Job Mike... impressive!!

Its about time someone honored the Beglian Art Nouveau architect with a custom.

Exactly.
Architects rarely get b*tch*ng action figures....

I always thought the ST Horta looked quite "arty"...
