Not in front of the Klingons Ah, the 70s. So many things happened which affected Geekdom forever. Perhaps the most important thing to happen was the introduction and proliferation of Mego action figures. There were tons of cool figures to choose from, but the Star Trek figs held a special place in our hearts. And now the great folks at Diamond Select have made wonderful reproductions for a whole new generation of Mego fans. In the 70s, things weren't politically correct - so Klingons were bad and that was that (and they don't like to talk about the lack of a wrinkly head, so don't ask). Both Kirk and the Klingon come with real cloth costumes, multiple points of articulation, and weapons (in UFP blue or Klingon orange). They are so much fun we can't stop playing with them. Get them now, before they are gone for another generation. Oh, and there was one other major geeky thing that happened in the 70s: Star Wars. Ironically, Mego chose not to take the Star Wars license, and that led to Mego's eventual downfall. Alas. Each figure stands approx. 8" tall and includes a phaser, communicator, belt, cloth clothing, and resealable packaging (for the collector).
