"Captain Koenig was called Commander Koenig on the show. This Mego figure is a great likeness of actor Martin Landau. Like Paul Morrow he comes on a Star Trek body with white boots. He comes equipped with a comlock but none of the characters had their stun guns. the Mattel guys have guns they can't hold them, so be sure to get some Dr. Mego repros to arm these guys to the teeth."

^^ how do you stick him to the car? surely not more of RR's essence?  :grin:
