I stumbled upon this YouTube channel that appears to be dedicated to showing off classic toys, and apparently they've recreated a few Star Trek episodes with their "MEGO" characters.

It's hilarious, ridiculous, and surprisingly well edited. I meant to check out the first scene and somehow watched a whole episode.

That took time and effort to make. I'm surprised at how well it's done! And hilarious!

UPDATE: watched the ep, loved mego T'Pring's sudden appearance and the way the actors wiggle and bounce when they say their lines! It reminded me of the marionettes from Thunderbirds, but much more charming.

It's so funny to picture the guy slightly off camera wiggling them around for the scenes. I love it.

He must have used a greenscreen glove, right? Or really good editing....

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.
