      Thank you for this. I want to make Thelin. What did you use for boots? I guess you couldn't swap heads or you'd loose the hands.

      I guess the lower legs could be swapped?

      The FAO Schwarts 25% off has Scotty and Andorian Available. That is everything you need except the shirt. I hope to order 2 Andorians to have 1 Andorian and 1 Thelin unless there is a Custom Thelin head floating around.

      Thanks again. I think they should have used Thelin in the New Trek movie!

        Definitely!



        Except for the colors it's a pretty good match. But then, I'm preaching to the choir here.

        Commander Thelin is a cool custom. I made one too.

          I agree wholeheartedly,I feel they were all based off of the animated series.

            Way to show the love for the animated series. Great job. You represented that venue of the trek universe excellantly. I love animation so much I had to own the series.

              Found it

              I was thinking of this "Thelin" that Roger Barrett made from a Doc Mego head. I swear I bought a head for this... oh well, maybe soon.

                    Don't mind at all it's an honour,thanks...

                    I'm glad to see he still gets some love.
                    He was fun to make and really simple.I think everybody should have a Thelin in their collection.
                    Now that FAO has the 25% off it's a great chance to make it happen.

                      I'm not entirely sure how he wound up in mego discussion and not finished customs???
                      I must have posted him here by mistake???
                      Does anybody have the power to move him there?

                        Love it--I did one , too.

                        I like the way the blue sciences tunic complements the Andorian skin.

                        What's next for EMCE kitbashing--a Klingon defector security officer, or maybe POTA-Trek crew?

                            I was planning on adding POTA figures to my crew but I also have thought of doing a story where the Ent meets the POTA... so I'm not sure how that may work out... unless that is where the POTA crew join up. Hmmmm.

                            P.S. That Thelin is Roger Barrett's he just sent me a photo. I don't have that figure or a Thelin of my own yet. Do the Andorians have Blue Hands? So I guess a Custom would involve swapping the lower legs?

                              You can either swap out the lower legs or put on klingon boots.Either way its all good.

                                I thought so but it looked like Trek Boots were prefereable. I haven't done a custom myself but I may try at some point.
