    New Mego Star Trek Talosian Images

    As we found out yesterday, Mego’s next wave will include two new, highly anticipated Aliens from Star Trek the Original Series. The Talosian and the Andorian both saw release by Mego in the 1970s but these new releases are intended to be more screen accurate. Thanks to Frank at Absolutely Retro we have some nice…

    Looks like the Talosian from the original series, but says Strange New Worlds on the package. Is that how they look in the new series? I don't watch it...

      I wonder if it's a production figure or prototype. It has the hands from the old banded body.

        They only appeared on SNW in flashes and I don't watch Discovery, so I'm not certain, it is a nice figure.

        To answer your other question, I can see the paint on the head, so it's a prototype for certain.

          And for the third question, it does state the card art isn’t finalized yet.

            To further complicate it, a TOS Talosian (along with Jeffrey Hunter's Pike) appeared in a flashback on Discovery

              That looks amazing, can't wait to get one. And the Talosians looked a little different in nu Trek. This one is definitely TOS.

                I really like this figure, but the card art can throw some people off, might just be better if the card art was done as TOS.

                Some folks might not know that the Talosians in the pilot episode and the two part Menagerie episode were all played by women actresses.

                  Many years ago, one of our members told us his mother-in-law was a Talosian. That was super neat.

                    So, is his wife half Talosian or full Talosian?
