Hmm... Andrew Duggan as Captain Kirk?

And do I see a hint of John Hurt in McCoy?

Paul McCartney as Scotty?

Hehe, this really is pretty funny. I feel bad for the sculptors who did these.

The original crew looks cool and collected, Picard on the other hand is breaking a sweat!

Kirk: "How many lights do you see Picard?"
Picard: "Four, I see four lights ..."

Here's some of the bridge crew with special guest star Captain Picard:

Not the best likenesses. The bridge looks cool though.

McCoy's hair piece looks worse than than any of them

I like 1st season Kirk best too, but I really don't care that much which version they put in wax as long as they went for "real" Kirk!

I think the figure looks great.

Yeah, I saw that post on the news section of this site. I think its pretty cool they did a wax of Kirk. To me it doesn't matter if its Kirk from TOS or the movies as long as Kirk is there! Kirk I think was the best Captain than any other Captain in Star Trek, and he desreved that. So I'm very happy about that.

The TOS Kirk has a FAT double chin! O_O And for some reason he actually looks older as Shatner today...

This is terrible. Please tell me it's in some douchebag's basement and not on public display somewhere.

Joe, w/fingers crossed

I like the one with the headless Uhura.

Sycho Nosk · November 7 2009, 01:13 PM

i think the wax kirk that shatner presented was awsome.... the rest look shiny, lifeless and totally unrealistic.... like my relatives at a family reunion.... so i beleave they are butifull MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!

How did McCoy get Chekov's hair? Transporter accident?

And is that a young William Devane in the red shirt?

GhostFaceSaint · November 7 2009, 11:21 PM

It looks like a trekkie tried to learn how to do wax figures and started practicing with Star Trek characters! UGH!

Could be worse. Could be taxidermy.

It was in the "Palace of Wax & Ripley's Believe it of Not" in Grand Prairie, TX.

This particular display is a bit of an anomaly since just about all of the other wax sculptures there look pretty dead on. I can only assume they got them for cheap from an outside source (which might explain why Picard is inexplicably standing there).

DrBob · November 8 2009, 02:20 AM

Aaagh! I'm gonna have to bleach my eyeballs now 8-/
Believe it or not...

Seriously Ripleys should throw these ghouls on a bonfire to see which one melts the fastest or something.

Takei: "Heeey, Im not wax!"

I agree.

Thats really bad, but also a really creappy unintentional likeness of Gary Cole.

The bridge crew diorama is terrible. hilariously terrible.

FalTorPan · November 9 2009, 01:43 AM

The bridge diorama characters don't look bad, except for Shatner, who more closely resembles Bruce Campbell.
