Though they look so cool once they are done, I think they look even cooler once they are sealed on their cards:

[The_Donster]

Dude, lovin' the Klingon's. I'm pretty impressed with some of the customs, did you make the backing cards yourself?

[startrekfiero]

Yeah, the Klingons are always fun to do





A couple other characters
Zarabeth

Young Animated Spock

Khan with correct non opened shirt/collar

[FHC]

Here are some more:

Dida deluxe bridge set by MegoScott

I like that my wife is actually helping me more with actually creating many of the outfits for me now.

Don't you hate it when just as you go to take the picture, that is when the figures decide it's time to fall over:




Thanks to Paul "Doc Mego" Clarke and his wonderful EMCE retro figures I now have a Chekov to finish the Tholian Web Environmental space suits custom set

Kirk as Kirok and his wife Miramanee as seen in "The Paradise Syndrome".
Kirok outfit is a modified Mego Wild Bill Hickock? shirt and modifed Mego Buffalo Bill? pants outfit by my wife, indian trim detailing as well as stringed white animal skins on Kirok by my wife, belt by my wife and painted by me, with DocMego boots that have added fringe by my wife and face painting by me. Kirok head band by my wife and silver medallion on head piece by me.
Miramanee brown outfit scratch built by my wife, head band by my wife with indian design pattern painting on head band by me, indian mocassins painted by me which came with the indian figure body I picked up off eBay. Head is a modified Uhura head with indian hair piece glued on taken from indian figure with hair strung down by my wife.
Custom card by Anthony (thetoyroom):


Some close ups to see the intricate detail on these customs:

My wife did an outstanding job especially on Miramanee.

Here is a set of custom Mego Kirk and Scotty figures with thier appropriate Starfleet dress uniforms.
The Kirk outfit is a modified pre-made larger figure shirt altered by my wife.
Mr. Scott's outfit is all custom made by my wife:


Kirk's dress uniform was seen in a variety of episodes including "Court Martial", "Is There In Truth No beauty", "The Savage Curtain" and "Journey to Babel" and Mr. Scott wearing his Scottish style dress uniform was seen in "Is there in truth no beauty" and in "The Savage Curtain".
A little anal trivia: Mr. Scott's socks were red in "The Savage Curtain" but were white in "Is there in truth..."
Here they are carded:



Here is screen shot from "The Savage Curtain":


Here is a close up of the completed outfit that my wife Alayne created:



Custom Mirror Mirror figures.
Kirk, Spock, Uhura and Lieutenant Marlena Moreau:


This is a custom Star Trek Mego figure of Zarabeth that my wife created.

Here is a screen shot from the episode to show what a great job my wife did on her whole outfit:

TNG custom figures, Mego style (and scale):

Looks like a weapons at ready stand off


My wife hard at work:

[startrekfiero]

Though this next picture is made up of mostly all original Mego's, except for the EMCE Chekov and custom redheaded Helms woman (ok, so my EMCE Sulu hadn't arrived yet), I just love this shot of them all posed on my deluxe bridge displayset:



I love how great the green belly wrap shirt my wife reworked looks on a Mego Capt. Kirk

[startrekfiero]

More finished and carded custom figures:
Here is a shot of a few of them finished, carded and all lined up:

[startrekfiero]

I love the custom double cards:

[thecapn]

Ha! I love the "dead" McCoy - very creative!

[TheHSBR]

Those are so cool. I would love to do customs like that with DST but there just isnt enough material! Mego is such a versatile medium!

[startrekfiero]

Mego's are a blast to work with that's for sure

Here is another carded custom Trek figure:
