Favorite costumes?

[Spock's Barber]

The Vulcan outfits in Amok Time are pretty great, too. The weird masks are a striking and alien detail.

Bill Theiss stated that he wasn’t fond of metallic type fabrics, but those Vulcan costumes are cool.

What's is funny is there's almost no doubt that the nameplates on those say "Kirk," "Spock," "McCoy," or "Chekov." But maybe they covered them up.

I want to lodge a formal objection to the post above featuring **both** Deela, Queen of Scalos and Droxine. That's just not fair or reasonable. Next someone will add in Odona, Kelinda, and Drea to really go overboard. And indeed, there were plenty of good-looking guys on Star Trek as well, including Shatner. Gary Mitchell, Ensign Garrovick and Commodore Wesley/Commander Giotto come to mind as well, as does Zefrem Cochrane.

Bob Wesley/Giotto was a bit on the old side while Zephram Cochrane actor Glen Corbett was good looking??

Yup. Just before Marta goes to pieces...

Wonder why they had to blow her up as well as take her into the deadly atmosphere of Elba II?

I thought so.

HEY LET'S HAVE A BIG ARGUMENT ABOUT THIS

If you detonate her necklace indoors, the pressure wave would deafen people, and probably blow out the windows, killing everyone. Take it outside if you're going to play rough.

Just how big do you want this argument to be?

Is this to be the five minute argument or the full half-hour?

Certainly no bigger than the legendary court case of Droxine v. Vanna.

The first-season green wrap, which I'm wearing in this 2016 SDCC pic.

I love the color decisions for the command uniforms.

 

[johnnybear]

I wonder why they changed the second season wraparound from the first season ranking collar?

Until now I never even realised there were different wrap arounds
Or as I call it, Kirk's "Away Kit"

 

[ZapBrannigan]

There were four wraparounds altogether:

Me neither! I've only just realised from looking at the two pictures! Just shows how unobservant I am!!!

[johnnybear]

Well the final of those four pics is a bit unfair as it's from the Mirror Universe, so not really the same uniform!
JB

 

[Delta Vega]

Haven't watched Star Trek in years so my memories aren't what they were on the fine details.
Have to say I'm genuinely taken aback that there was more than one away kit

Looking fabulous must be maintained, or the Empire is doomed.

I think if the show had continued into the 1970s, a sleeveless uniform variant would have become more commonplace (as shown in surviving "Phase II" test footage, for example).

In fact, Theiss constructed a short-sleeve uniform for Kirk (Shatner) in the style of McCoy's medical tunic. The tunic would've been used in the 1970s sequel show. James Cawley acquired the unfinished uniform, completed it and used it in his defunct fan film series.

Cool, I have never seen that. And good for Bob Fletcher for coming up with rank insignia for short sleeved shirts.
