    Very impressive work and collection of customs!! Your a lucky man sir. I had a girlfriend once who was pretty handy at sewing. I asked her once if she could make a Mego sized outfit.....believe she married a plumber.

    You and your wife should consider going into business with this! Us Trek hounds here at the museum are always looking for more outfits for our Trek customs!....Ok, ok...I'm always looking for more....

        LOL too funny

        We are tossing a few up on eBay here and there to see if there is much of a demand, so we shall see.
        If you and/or anyone else on the forum is wanting any specific outfits you can always PM me and ask. She certainly loves the challenge and the fun of creating them

          Here are a few I have been working on:

          Looks like a weapons at ready stand off


          And here is a few more sneak peak pics at what my wife has been up to.

            Is that Ruk you have under construction there?

              Yup I would say good guess but since my wife is really "nailing" these with getting them to look very screen accurate, they are obviously pretty easy to "guess" who they are. Even when all you get to see at first is pretty much just their outfit.

              And the cool thing with Ruk here is that the pink material used on the show for Ruk's shirt dress (and so will be the same for the material my wife found) is the same material they used for Miri's dress...so making a Miri custom shouldn't be too far down the road.

              Though this next picture is made up of mostly all original Mego's, except for the EMCE Chekov and custom redheaded Helms woman (ok, so my EMCE Sulu hadn't arrived yet), I just love this shot of them all posed on Scott's custom Dida deluxe bridge:



              Though these bridge pictures don't have much to do with custom figures they do show just how great the green belly wrap shirt looks on Capt. Kirk

                Man, she's hitting one homerum after the other isn't she?


                Good thing she isn't doing Batman 1966 customs or I'd have to marry her

                  i knew that was Lee meriwethers outfit! i just don't remember her character's name. WHAT A WIFE!! She truly is an incredible find. someone who not only knows your passions but then shares in it, and incredibly so at that! Keep these coming as i may ask for some soon myself. Oh and if she ever wants to jump over and make Doctor Who custom outfits just sign me up right now!

                    She says she can probably create similar outfits for just about any character from any TV show-series or movies within reason.
                    She also said she is already happily married

                      Yup, she is pretty amazing

                      She said if your serious in wanting to have a few made, just send us links or pics of the characters/outfits and she can work up a sample for you.
                      We are assuming these are Mego scale.

                          Here's an easy one I did some time ago, I'm sure you'll recognize him



                          And here are some Trek customs I did. I've got more, but this is an old pic

                            Yup, he is the Capellan Maab, who by assassination became the new Teer. I can't tell in those pics, but did you make an accurate looking kligat?
                            You did an accurate custom of him. He looks great!
                            It's interesting that you posted pics of this specific character as we are actually creating a few characters from this episode right now including Maab, a few guards, Akaar and of course a pregnant Eleen

                              The Mugato looks way better than the one that EMCE put out (sorry Doc).

                              Excellent work on Maab. I always did like Joe Dante's work as an actor. To my mind, he didn't do enough when it came to movies.

                                The salt creature looks sweet as well.
                                I tried to make my Mugato as screen accurate as possible:


                                He does loose some of his look when he is squished inside the blister bubble though :(
