This is the BEST news I've heard all day!!
Two exellent choices!!
For one, I never would spend $350-$400 for a Mugato, so this is a great way to get one.
I for one want ALL the first 14 figures to come out first, then we can get into getting some new ones.
This is good day for ST MEGO's replicas!!

Doc, can you confirm that these two will be the next regular release?
I'm pleased with the selection as well. I'd definitely like a show Muggy, but I'm happier with this than Cheron. We've run out of options for crew members compared to Aliens. Hopefully we'll see some of the extended crew being made to pair up with Cheron (cough *Sulu* cough), Neptunian (cough *Chekov* cough), and even Gorn (cough *Yeoman Rand* cough). I doubt we'll see a Talosian, at least line accurate since it would require the new body, but I'll take an 8 inch one if it means another crew member (cough *Nurse Chapel* cough).
Finally seeing another option for female bodies is great.
Obviously with Uhura and Zira being made, that had to happen. Can you share any details of the body? Any changes, or have you seen any factory prototypes of the body? I assume the quality will be better than our Indian friends managed (that's a given), but how will it compare to a Mego body? Will they be available on you site as a stand alone purchase?
Anyway, congrats on continuing this line. Bring on the new figures!

Thank you Dr Mego, for getting new Mego figures in the stores again. Thanks for getting Khan in this lineup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What I love about Mego's Mugato is how good he'll look in my Star Raiders set!
And I'm encouraging my favorite comic stores to stick with you, by grabbing as many as possible- so far I've got 4 Romulans, 4 Andorians, and 8 Klingons!! (Has anyone noticed how good Chopper looks as a Klingon?) To all Mego heads in Dallas/Ft Worth, if you haven't been yet, go to Zeus Toys & Comics, Keith's Comics (both in Dallas) or the mighty Lone Star Comics (all over!) to get these guys!Comment

From toynewsi. They have the largest clearest pic I've seen so far.

I am so psyched for these.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...Comment

If people are willing to pay over $350-$400 for an origonal one...
Then obviously.. YES!!!
It wouldn't be that high a price if there wasn't a demand no matter how rare it is or isn't.
People will jump all over this one at these low prices that don't want to spend the big $$$ for one I can assure you that.
I know I will....
No way in HELL will it kill the line, pretty narrow minded if you think that.

Wow! I have to say Lt. Uhura is beautiful!!! I still wish she would have gotten the black hose and shorts, but I guess I can add them. And as goofy as the Mugato looks, I will get him!
Wonder why the Gorn isn't showing up yet? Could it be a series accurate Gorn ala Hulk body will show up first???Comment

I'm down
Never cared for the look of Mugato much, which is why I was never willing to pay the price to get an original. I WILL pay $15.00 however.
I want to see all the Trek figures reissued, whether I own the originals or not. I like the idea of having some that I can mess around with, photograph and display, without worrying about dust, damage, and deterioration.
I do see this set as being the lowest selling all around though.Comment

The Lt. looks spectacular. I need to get me one. I don't like the brown tights but that is easily remedied. Her hair looks better than I have ever seen before!Those who look outside dream. Those who look within awake.
Samples of my work are found here: Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness
To do list:
1:6 boots for Mathilda, 1:1 Romulan Commander outfit, Ursus helmet; Cornelius appliance
1:9 scale ape's new suit for Cornelius;Comment

The Mugato in that pic looks like an original. His top is faded and there looks to be a belt stain. Surely Docs not going for a truely authentic faded and stained look
I presume he is just a stand in teaser as the mock ups haven't been produced yet?
In fact, looking again it wouldn't surprise me if Uhura is an original as well.Last edited by English Paul; Feb 9, '08, 9:16 AM."I should say I`m very much cleverer than any of the people who put me here.

Actually I stumbled across an auction a couple months back where a certain Dr. of Megos had purchased a very nice Mugato which I assumed might be heading over seas. I didn't wanna start any rumors so I kept it kinda a secret except for a couple of people. I like it. Just have enough differences to keep anyone from thinking it's original but close enough to satisfy a collector that can't or won't spend the money on an original. Great work Doc and EMCE. Keep em coming. Uhura completes the original crew so could Sulu or Chekov be in the works?? Someone has to pair up with Cheron and the Gorn. Still like to see a Talosian also. Time will tell.It's not a doll it's an action figure.Comment

Exactly what I was thinking. You can't see it on the small pic, but it's pretty clear on the large picThe Mugato in that pic looks like an original. His top is faded and there looks to be a belt stain.

The sample shirt was the wrong shade of green so they went with the original shirt for photos.Comment
