    Talking About Andorians.

    Noodling around in the Trek gallery it struck me that the Andorian we have is not a real Andorian. He is obviously based on the spy who was altered to resemble an Andorian. If Mego 2.0 lasts long enough to get to the Andorian I wouldn't mind seeing them do the Andorian mental patient from Whom Gods Destroy. Fabulous pink boa included.

    The Mego Andorian reminds me more of the one from "The Gamesters of Triskelion" episode. Not exact mind you...

        I personally would not mind getting both Andorians seen in “Journey to Babel” as well as those from the other episodes. True the younger of the two in the Babel episode was an imposter but the older was an actual Andorian and had a unique look to him. The spy was also apparently convincing enough to fool the Ambassadors and Starfleet so I’m happy with that version as well!

          The Andorian is my favorite Trek alien, I'd welcome a new or reissue version. Adding a Tellerite to the mix would be thrilling.

            I agree with all of this I would love a Tellerite, and let's throw in a correct version Talosian to the mix.

              Yeah mego got it wrong twice. They could use the Talos head with a silver rope. Mugato head and body isn't bad either just needs a white fur suit.

                Oh c'mon...the Talos is perfect. Every dying race of super psychics dress like clowns. It's a sci fi trope.

                  I think a 2 pack boxed set of vintage mego style and slightly more correct versions would be the perfect blend.

                    Here's an idea I've been kicking around, I remember a lot of people being disappointed that Chapel never got released, I also remember people wanting another member of Pikes crew why not do a Chapel number one two pack. They could get extra mileage from the same head sculpt, the only expense would be different clothes.

                      A 2 pack of either journey to Babel or Whom Gods Destroy Andorian and Tellerite would be sweet. So many great possibilities where Trek is concerned.

                        You read my mind. Andorian and Tellarite in a two-pack where they are throwing insults at each other!

                          Yes! Mirror, Mirror aside, I can think of at least a dozen figures I'd like.

                            I was just studying the Mego Andorian, and comparing it to photos of the classic eps, and he seems to be a mix of both characters in the story. Because the one he is supposedly based on is quite diffferent, he had a silver blouse with a brown studded belt, a loose (more green or greyish) poncho over it, dark pants and boots, and no gloves.
                            If we're going to revisit existing figures, I'd really love screen accurate ones.
