Star Trek EMCE

[Tothiro]

I mean, ya gotta love a Disco Mugato, right?

I do. Yes. I too have known the cloying, furry embrace of Disco Mugato love (I was a younger man, and in college, and in need of the money).

[EDIT] Is it too soon to resurrect the Rubber Vomit Horta idea?

[EDIT TO THE EDIT] How about a DST Doomsday Machine Planet Eater Sleeping Bag? All we need is an internet hoax post and a groundswell of fan support (it worked for Taun-tauns). Thanks! I know it's great idea! [/self-congratulatory_eagerness] I'll get right on it!

Mego's Mugatu was very, very close to the Superman villain, Nam-Ek:

Yeah, baby!

[scott metzger]

Oh Scott, not you too. You're one of the Guys who actually like the Mego Mugato!

What can I say? He was groovy, baby!!!

Keep in mind, when I was a kid, I didn't use the ST Aliens with the Trek figures; they were a group of aliens who regularly fought against my Justice League, with the Mugato being from a heavy gravity planet with a red sun who was a match for Superman. For that, his mod clothes were perfect.

Can't wait to get a Pike and Chapel.

[Gorn Captain]

The carded custom is NOT Vina, it's Marta, totally different Orion Slave girl.

They're both green to me!!!

I really think part of the charm of the Trek Aliens was the, to put it kindly, artistic license they took. I mean, ya gotta love a Disco Mugato, right?

Talo? Come on he was an original figure AND on the show. So they put him in a clown suit! Makes him more unique!

Honest I can find a Gorn head. Wow something to make them actually go UP in value!
I really want that Talos. Its a charater from the show!

Neptunian? Well I love Megos, and I love the very original head it has. but ehhhh

Yes I mean original Gorn. or at least offer a roto cast Brown lizard head. Since its just a crocodile head and was used twice Will Marvel LET you?

I think that's where the problem lies; the original head was the licensed Lizard head re-done in brown. Things have changed since then, and companies like Marvel are much more agressive in protecting their properties. I don't think the Doc or Diamond would want to push the envelope there just for one figure.

Man I couln'd see any of those pictures I just got the lil box with the x in them. I want to see them sooooo bad!!!

[TrueDave]

If the Gorn couldnt get new hands why does the Salt Creature?

Those new hands look too modern for me. I would be satisfied with Neptunian gloves on the Gorn. It would have been in Mego campy style.

I think It would be awesome Doc if you do make more Kirks and such because those will sell. You'll get more sales for Casual Kirk than you would Lt Obsura Just make those shirts available in the Doc Shop! Budget for my hobby!

If you can make the Mugato ( Mine is being "Flocked " at GI Joe hair club) you can make the three remaining aliens. Yes I mean original Gorn. or at least offer a roto cast Brown lizard head. Since its just a crocodile head and was used twice Will Marvel LET you?

Neptunian. come on unique boots and gloves and a seriously funky one of a kind head sculpt!

I understand the body issue with Talos. But That makes Neptunian a no brainer.

[Richard J. Fowlks]

Where is Talos?????

What about us completists ?

True dat!!! I've been waiting for a Talos!!

[Ghostwriter71]

I guess now I see why Diamond Select has no release date on their Art Asylum style Salt Creature which I was very much looking forward to (along with their Stargate Ba'al and General Hammond figures that also seem to be on indefinite hold).

Now that the EMCE/MEGO version of the Salt Creature is coming out, I'll be more than happy with that!!!!

In regard to the regular DST line, Rick just mentioned this DST set looks to be a go:

And that Series 5 has been cancelled, but will supposedly be re-solicited sometime. So hope does remain for the line....
