New here - Star Trek Megos

[theressa]

Welcome aboard and to the madness!
If you're looking for Trek clothes, maybe I can help there.

Wow

I will track down the MEGO Khan, then. Sometimes I get busy with stuff and some collectibles slip my attention. I am anxious for the Star Trek IV Kirk and Spock that is due out tomorrow (according to the DST site) and the Salt Vampire in September.

I loved the Amok Time, STTMP and Worf/Gowron two packs. All nicely done. The STII figures were nice although some likenesses were off. FINALLY, someone made Capt. Terell! That was a good instance of replacing the Playmates versions of Saavik and Khan with the AA/DST versions.

I was disappointed when DST cancelled the STIII Kruge and Maltz set. I really wanted that set!

I never noticed these. Maybe because they weren't Mego-style... they are 6inches tall? Articulated? I'll have to see if I can find one to look at in person.

But that Kirk sculpt is awful. Spock too for that matter. But a cool idea.

?

Diamond/Emce's Gorn, Kahn, Sulu and Chekov were all sculpted by Mego Museum member James Brady.

I think he did a smashing job

No comparison to Playmates lifeless sculpts

I didn't know that. I thought my Brady Sulu and Chekov were better likenesses than the Emce. I only have Chekov to compare, I'll go look later.

If Emce used the Brady Gorn head, Doc REALLY should have used the Brady Kit. I still want one of those but I'll buy 2 of the Sulu/Gorn 2packs anyway.

Maybe the "skinny" Gorn are from the North.


If you haven't seen the Brady Gorn yet, you should


I think it was done using parts of Hulk body and some custom work of course. He used to sell the parts so you could make your own.

Very nice work. All of James' work is nice. Some of it is just outstanding.

Welcome Aboard!

Hello,

I just joiend today. I collect strictly Mego Star Trek

Welcome aboard, Ghostwriter71. I only collect Mego Trek figures now with Emce producing them. Prior to that I had what I had as a kid and that was mostly Trek. I've recently sold most of my non-Trek megos. I had hoped to do a Trek movie with them at one time but I'm not sure about that now.

I may also have a Khan for sale if you can't find one. Doc Mego has them on his site though as well. I'd say get Khan from him if you can.

Also, you may want to check out the DeSalle head available here

And go sign in on a thread I started to count (the at least 39) folks like us
http://megomuseum.com/community/showthread.php?t=26192

And after looking at your site, I will PM or email you about a custom Enterprise Model. I don't see that you take commissions but you may be able to help me. I am looking for a way to get a STII era Enterprise painted as the USS Argonaut with a Hull number I'll have to go look up. But I'll PM you.

Ivaniski is also looking for decals for the Original Shuttlecraft Galileo if you know where he can find those.

I also have some pix in the gallery and some at photobucket.

This may be the most interesting one
The most interesting ones are probably here in the Gallery now though if you go browsing.

And here is a link to the Toyfare article about the possilble rebirth of Mego itself

Thanks for joining. See you around.

Now I also lost track of Diamond Select's Mego-style Khan. Did that ever come out? I am on their site a lot as I buy many of their Art Asylum-style Trek figures and I never saw Khan mentioned except as a News flash last year. I don't see him on their Retro Figures page.

Thanks!
Phil

Hello and welcome

[Ghostwriter71]

Yes, I love Doc's work and I love the fact that DST has given new birth to the Mego figures with EMCE.

I love the DST/Art Asylum figures and as each one comes out, I replace the earlier Playmates version by selling it off or giving it away and putting the AA/DST version in its place on my shelf.
