    It's definitely him.

    I know this for sure because HE HIMSELF mentioned his bit part in Star Trek on David Letterman back in the 80's.

    He even described the episode (not remembering the name) saying something like --- I was a security guard on Star Trek fighting Klingons with a sword.

    I don't see a Kirk Douglass chin on him like in that Star Trek photo...



    I'm not saying is not him...I'm just pointing out some differences...that's all.

    He didn't get credit for it so today many people don't know it.


    Preserving Mego history today, making Mego history tomorrow.

    The thing that throws me off is his height and broad chest (he looks like a bodybuilder there, lol) in that photo...he towers over Sulu and Scotty...but Shearer is rather short and slight...





    Here he is as a kid (on the right)...



    Must be the angle...or Takei and Doohan were just puny midgets.

    He is 65.

    It doesn't look like him...but the nose is very similar...so it must be him, lol.

    Is that him?

    He must be old as dirt.
    He's old enough that one of his first acting roles (bit part) was on the movie Abbott and Costello Go To Mars in 1953.
    He was a kid at the time.
