Our Mego of the Day for this fine Monday is Captain Zantor from the UK only Space:1999 series, who was portrayed by esteemed actor Christopher Lee but many have suggested that he looks more like William Shatner. What do you think?

He does kind of look like a Kirk resculpt, but I love the figure regardless. I used to have both the blonde and white haired version of the figure, but when I thinned some stuff out I got rid of the blonde in favor of the show accurate white.
1999 is one of my favorite lines. I really think they did a nice job with it, despite not including Bergman and Russell. -
One of my fav 1999 episodes of all time.
Very Twilight Zonie, especially the end.Comment

Space hippie - hair, robes and no shoes. Peace man!
I still need an original black overcoat for mine. He is currently wearing the CTVT issue and then my Space 1999 set is 100% complete."I should say I`m very much cleverer than any of the people who put me here. As a matter of fact, I could leave any time I wanted. It`s only a doll`s house after all. Anyway, I don`t mind. I like dolls" - The Mad Hatter, Arkham Asylum.Comment

Agreed on all posts ~ It was one of the earliest eps that really exemplified the eeriness the show was to take at it's best. Especially for the late-night time slots that it held when the first year premiered here..
As for the sculpt, much like the rest of the 1999 line, it commands a fine, distinctive appreciation. Nothing animated or amatuerish about it. Very well done..!
Peace.. Through Superior Firepower.

Another one I like a lot. This was probably the first one from this line I got when I go into collecting.sigpic WANTED: Boxed, Carded and Kresge Carded WGSHComment

I dont know between him and the keeper what are we trying to say.. Shoes are the sign of an inferior species? Youd think foot coverings would come sometime before space travel.
Seriously Christopher Lee was great in that episode.
Lo there do I see my Father.
Lo there do I see my Mother and my Sisters and my Brothers.
Lo there do I see the line of my people back to the begining.
Lo they do call me.
They bid me take my place among them.

This was my first collector Mego, I ordered him sight unseen and was surprised when I got a Mego figure. It triggered all sorts of questions in my head like "what other figures did they make that I don't know about?" My focus changed from Sco Fi collectibles to Mego within a few weeks.Places to find PlaidStallions online: https://linktr.ee/Plaidstallions

Another point: Much like the character Christopher Lee played, his expression doesn't convey any good/evil intentions. Purely a cool character from an highly-advanced race...Peace.. Through Superior Firepower. Comment
