STAR TREK Items for sale in the POPCULTURE SHOP eBAY Store
MEGO was the legendary toy company that produced the best action figures of the seventies. Their 8" inch scaled action figures with cloth outfits included The World's Greatest Superheroes (Spiderman, Superman, Batman etc), Planet of the Apes, Monsters, and of course STAR TREK.
A new toy company called EMCE has been producing reproductions of the original Star Trek MEGO Action Figures, and KHAN is the first brand new figure to join the original line-up of KIRK, SPOCK, MCCOY, SCOTTY, UHURA, and the various Aliens.
The KHAN Action Figure is based on his appearance in the classic episode of the original STAR TREK television series, THE SPACE SEED. Khan Noonien Singh was played by Ricardo Montalbán, who reprised the titular role in the second STAR TREK movie THE WRATH OF KHAN.
EMCE has also brought back the original Star Trek MEGO packaging artist Harold Shull to paint all new images of the characters joining the original line-up. These new illustrations perfectly match the style of the ones he did well over three decades ago!

KHAN. A Retro Action Figure depicting actor RICARDO MONTALBAN as the legendary villian KHAN in the original STAR TREK episode THE SPACE SEED.
DST is excited to announce the first exclusive release in the ongoing line of retro-inspired Star Trek cloth figures will be one of Captain Kirk’s most dangerous foes – the nefarious Khan Noonien Singh! This limited figure is based on his debut appearance in the classic episode “Space Seed.” The figure was sculpted by and is manufactured in conjunction with Emce Toys!
The first completely original design to join the ranks of the Star Trek retro cloth figure line, Khan features the same articulation and detail, making this a must-have figure for fans of the original Mego toy line as well as DST’s new line of releases.
Genetically engineered during Earth’s Eugenics Wars centuries earlier, Khan attempted to gain the crew’s trust and take over the Enterprise for his own purposes. Barely stopped by Captain James T. Kirk, Khan was exiled to the distant Ceti Alpha V and forgotten. Refusing to abandon his quest for vengeance, Khan would later return and again almost destroy the Enterprise – this time claiming Spock as a casualty.
These figures are exact reproductions of the classic MEGO toys of the 1970s, manufactured by EMCE Toys.
EMCE TOYS... inspired by the original action figures produced by MEGO, they strive to craft quality, durable action figures and collectibles that recreate the sense of fun that the originals were made for.
