Spock was my first Trek Mego too. A neighbor gave it to me for Christmas one year. I had to be 3 or 4. I think I knew he had something to do with Star Trek, but beyond that, did not know who he was, really.
By the time I got into Trek a few years later, the Mego Trek figures had dried up.

Sad to see that Mr. Nimoy passed away. I didn't realize he was the focus of so much Star Trek merchandizing.
My older brother used to use the Vulcan nerve pinch on me. It never quite worked like on tv. LLAPLeave a comment:

My Mego Spock was one of my favorite Mego figures in the Trek line. EMCE did a wonderful job recreating him decades later. I also had the Aurora model kit. I picked the reproduction kit a few years back. I think now is a good time to build and paint it. Would make for good therapy all the way around.Leave a comment:

^Remco did release a few items during the show's first-run. But I believe most of these Brian posted are from the mid 70s.

Very little, if any classic Trek merch was produced during the original run. The show only hit its stride in syndication, so it is likely a 70s piece.What time period is the ahi bop bag from? Late 60's or early 70's? I never knew of its existence until these boards. Would've loved that as a kid. I remember the TRU ad, too, because the drawing of the ship looked so bad. Interestingly enough, now looking at the ad the Mego Kirk and Spock look more like Pine and Quinto.
I need to look for the re-issue of the Spock Model before they are hard to find.Leave a comment:

A lovely tribute. I know this won't sound like I'm trivializing human life to this audience if I say that this feels like losing a favorite toy forever...Leave a comment:

My first Mego was Spock. He eventually had to have a leg transplant, but is still kicking after all these years!Leave a comment:

He could easily sell Trek merchandise more than the image of Kirk. I'll take the parachute and the pinball machine, please, thank you.Leave a comment:

I love that Bop Bag. The portrait is almost pop art-like. The rest of his body is whacko, but that's a nice, stylized Nimoy there.
