I have always been a Trek head first and for most, and like most of us I was nto happy with the Mattel "3 3/4" line ...anyway that said I doubt a Trek GP will come down the pike anytime soon, so I said what the heck and got started on my own Trek Nation  [and yes he's dead Jim !  and PS if anyone had a Python CG, and ROC long sleve Scarlet ...and Movie Flash legs for sale PM me! |

Shia? Shia!? Shatner would kick your butt for that.  The bodies for Kirk and Bones look good. You might have been able to salvage the heads from the movie figures. |

Sadly the move heads are too small for the Joe torsos. It was that or Crosshair's head for Kirk which looks like Shat in an old promo pic! Mutt seems to work for the time being ...But alwasy open to ideas |

bbi Nightstalker had a Shatner head. It's not perfect, but it's pretty close. Another bbi fig from their last wave of carded modern had a head that looked a lot like D Kelly.   Cool project, BTW. |

I think I just Shat myself....  These are awesome - Flint-as-Spock is absolutely brilliant and totally stolen. Not sold on the Shia head or the dude you used for McCoy (Luke?), but I don't have any better solutions. The bodies are incredible, though - especailly "green-shirt" Kirk's rig. |

I used fabric glitter paint on the trousers when I did a Classic Klingon self-custom a while back. |

Thanks, I lucked out on Spock-and Commander Kor - as for McCoy yeah it's a Luke ( I think Hasbor get's bored and "plays" with the faces sometimes. I used the ROC Hawk for Yellow Kirk and McCoy, the CP- CC for Spock ( since my painting skills are subpar) and ROC WildBill for the Green Kirk |

Wow,I love all of these but you need to replace that Shat head, If Slayer Designs ever opens again they sell a perfect representation along with Spock,but I think what you have going there is fine.You could also look around on the web and find a mego Kirk head from the motion picture line on the cheap.Looks great though and hope that you continue with more from this line. |
