    Life-Sized Mego Star Trek Playset

    Has anyone come across this before? I can't figure out if it was really constructed or is just a design concept.

    Life-Sized MEGO Star Trek Playset by Matt Iacovelli

    The piece is a life-sized replica of the 1974 Mego Star Trek USS Enterprise play set. It stood 8 feet tall, and featured a spinning transporter and television screen which played clips from classic space themed movies and television shows.

      I have never seen it before, but based on some quick Googling, looks real!

              Oh my! That is insane! It's hard to tell if they miniaturized those people or scaled up the play set!

                  That's pretty neat.
                  You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                              That looks so good, I couldn't tell if it was just a picture on an actual playset from the first picture. I want a working Wayne Foundation to live in.
