Welcome aboard the museum! I think your Spock’s Brain custom looks pretty spot on especially in that first pic.
If you wanted to get it a little better, you could carefully remove the collar on the POTA jumpsuit.
sometimes I try to be a perfectionist but that’s just me, it looks good with the collar too, great job and hope to see a few more in the future.Leave a comment:

Thank you! Yes, it pained me a little to remove the pockets from the jumpsuit because they were so nicely sewn on. But the result was worth it to me.
I have a bit of a mashup of three episodes and dueling Spocks going on in my display case, but it makes me smile.

Brainless "Spock's Brain"
Hi folks!
This is my first time posting on this forum. I recently decided to display some of the Star Trek Original Series (TOS) collectibles that I've accumulated since the early 1970s. In the process, I dug out my Mego Star Trek USS Enterprise playset and figures, and rediscovered my love of 8-inch Megos. I built some custom display cases to show off the figures and fell down the eBay rabbit hole of perusing new figures and accessories. One particular 3D-printed accessory caught my eye, the remote-control headset Spock wears during the episode "Spock's Brain". While a pretty silly episode and not one of my favorites, I kept coming back to that item and eventually pulled the trigger on it. But since I cannot sew, I needed to find the right jumpsuit to complete his look. Once I ran across a Conquest of the Planet of the Apes suit in the right color and without a wide collar, I launched into completing the look. It's not a very difficult or elaborate custom, but I think it's a decent re-creation.
If anyone is interested in where I sourced the materials, let me know and I'll add the details to this post.
Thanks, and please be kind!
