Out of the Toybox (37): Star Trek: the Motion Picture

 

Star Trek: The Motion Picture (MEGO; 1979) Starting Star Trek action figures today; this might take a while. Of course, we had some of the 8-inch MEGOs back in the day (and John's done a nice job restoring them). But the next set we had were these 3 3/4-inch MEGOs from Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979). A lot of age on these. Somewhere along the way Kirk's feet got chewed almost off (dog? child?). I know we have the McCoy. It seems to have been shuffled into the wrong bin somewhere along the way. It will probably turn up sometime in the process. I'm afraid Ilia's paint has worn off in a rather suggestive way.

Update: Found! McCoy gets his close-up. I have the feeling DeForest Kelley would be pleased.
