Description: Star Trek: The Motion Picture was a 1979 American science fiction movie directed by Robert Wise. The Motion Picture is based on and stars the cast of the 1966–1969 television series Star Trek created by Gene Roddenberry, who serves as producer. In the film, set in the 2270s, a mysterious and powerful alien cloud known as V'Ger approaches Earth, destroying everything in its path. Admiral James T Kirk assumes command of the recently refitted USS Enterprise to lead it on a mission to determine V'Ger's origins and save Planet Earth. By the late 70's Star Trek has snowballed into a phenom, and the announcement of a Star Trek motion picture had truly excited the movie going public then sci fi crazy after Star Wars Mania had struck. While Paramount intially attempted to treat the movie as a seperate license, Mego fought hard that their agreement included merchandising rights to the movie. Since Mego had such massive success with their Star Trek television series figures in the mid 1970’s, they decided to release a line based on the new Motion Picture movie in 1980. The new line consisted of twelve 3.75 inch figures broke into two waves, the intial being the Enterprise crew and the second were the many aliens that appeared onscreen. Although the Enterprise Crew cold be purchased in stores, the aliens were only sold in the US through catalogs. Of the characters, Kirk and Spock proved most popular at the time. This offering includes action figures from the Mego toy line. Each one is sold separately but I have included the option to buy all as a Lot. This offering includes: Enterprise Crew (Wave 1) Kurk: Admiral James T. Kirk was portrayed by William Shatner in the first Star Trek movie and was of course, the Commanding Officer of the Enterprise. The likeness on the figure was not terrible, but unfortunately it suffered from the paint fading that most Mego 3.75 Inch figures suffered during this time. Mr. Spock: Mr. Spock was portrayed by Leonard Nimoy in the first Star Trek movie and was of course, the Chief Science Officer of the Enterprise. The likeness on the figure was not terrible, but unfortunately it suffered from the paint fading that most Mego 3.75 Inch figures suffered during this time. William Decker: Captain Willard Decker was portrayed by Stephen Collins in the first Star Trek movie and was the Captain of the Enterprise and oversaw its refit, until relieved by Kirk. The likeness on the figure was not terrible, but unfortunately it suffered from the paint fading that most Mego 3.75 Inch figures suffered during this time. Doctor McCoy: Dr. Leonard McCoy was portrayed by Deforest Kelley in the first Star Trek movie and was of course, the Chief Medical Officer of the Enterprise. The likeness on the figure was not terrible, but unfortunately it suffered from the paint fading that most Mego 3.75 Inch figures suffered during this time. Lila: Lt. Llia was portrayed by Persis Khambatta in the first Star Trek movie and was an officer aboard the Enterprise who is taken by V'Ger in the movie to be return to liaison between the prode and the Enterprise Crew. The likeness on the figure was not terrible, but unfortunately it suffered from the paint fading that most Mego 3.75 Inch figures suffered during this time.. Scottie: Mr. Scott was portrayed by James Doohan in the first Star Trek movie and was of course, the Chief Engineer of the Enterprise. The likeness on the figure was not terrible, but unfortunately it suffered from the paint fading that most Mego 3.75 Inch figures suffered during this time. Aliens (Wave 2) Arcturians: The Arcturians were a humanoid alien species that resembled melting strawberry ice cream. An Arcturian was briefly seen in the movie but never played a major role. Strangely, the Arcturian figure was featured in yellow instead of the reddish color from the movie. Klingon: What is a Star Trek action figure line without a Klingon? Of course, the Klingons were drastically changed from the old TV show to the movies and this figure is proof of that. The figure is actually pretty nice, but sadly suffers from the paint fading that most Mego 3.75 Inch figures suffered during this time. Rigellian The Rigellian looks like a pretty cool figure but it isn’t actually a Rigellian. Mego confused him for another race of aliens called the Saurians. Still, this is good head sculpt. A 12 Inch version of this figure was planned for that line, but never made it to production. I am the original owner of these toy.
