    Mego 1st series Trek Aliens

    Were any of the 1st series Trek Aliens produced with type 1 metal rivet bodies? I think by the time they were produced Mego was using only type 2 bodies, but not 100% sure. Thought I'd see if anyone else knew.

    According to the galleries they are all T2 only.

        I'm 99% sure they were all T2. Since the first series Aliens were all on different color bodies (Neptunian = Green, Cheron = Black, Gorn = Brown, Keeper = Blue), I would think if any had ever appeared someone here would really have noticed.

              All 8 Star Trek Aliens were T2 only.

              The Klingon can be T1 or T2, but he was not released as part of the Aliens series.

                By toyfair '75 the crew was already developed (and possibly on shelves) but if you watch the toyfair reel (which is on the mego commercials volume 1 disk) you can see the first wave Aliens were just rough hand made items. They likely didn't see release until late 75 and were all on type 2 bodies.

                  I ask because i remember seeing a loose Gorn once on Ebay with a type 1 brown body. I thought then the body probably came from AJ or POTA.

                    I can concur...all series 1 and 2 aliens were released on type 2 bodies... I guess no one can say with 100% certainty that some factory error piece doesn't exist somewhere, but production wise, T2 it is
