    Star Trek customs: Marta - Nurse Chapel - Talosian Keeper - Pike

    My wife just completed a Star Trek Marta custom, which is a Figures Toy Company Batman 66 Barbara Gordon modified head, green body, and custom outfit. Nurse Chapel is a modified retro Invisible Girl head and body, boots are also from Figures Toy Company, the Talosian Keeper cast head is available from Dr. Mego, and Captain Pike was originally a Playmates 9" figure, the head modified with the upside down (extra) neck plug method on an original Mego Star Trek body and pants, his shirt and communicator are from the Playmates original figure:

        They all look great. I wish the EMCE Pike looked a little closer to yours.

          ^^^^ I second this. Pike turned out FANTASTIC! What is the upside down (extra) neck plug method? Is there a thread I can see this at?

            Nice work on all, the IG head works great for Chapel.

                Thank you very much, the Playmates plugless head was adapted with this method: http://www.megomuseum.com/custom/pluglessnecks.shtml using a spare mego like head and cutting and inverting to make the transition piece.

                      Love how they all came out, heads, bodies, clothes, Capt. Pike came out very nice, the playmates head works
                      great for him, I always thought playmates clothing was slightly to big for Mego bodies, now I'm glad
                      to find out there not.
