In some cases it was noticeable in the original show. It has been a lot of years, but I think I remember seeing a faux pas like that in "Shore Leave".
Hey, I never noticed that before....

Yes. But it was about a year ago and with little children so I don't remember the gameplay. I'll have to get it out and reread the rules.
Wow, that's an eerie resemblance. That guy could have been DeForest's stand-in. What episode was he in?Am I crazy, or does this guy (David Troy as "Larry Matson") look kind of like he could have played a younger McCoy in a flashback scene?
Yep, I posted a picture (or a link to a screencap, I forget which) earlier in this thread. I'm guessing that it was easier to climb the rocks when he was out of the Beatle boots.Hmmmm....also in 'Arena', the first time Kirk kneels down to talk into his recording device, he is wearing lace up boots. Maybe the Metrons decided he needed more ankle support.
I just recently noticed that the Tantalus field device is behind Amanda in sickbay in "Journey To Babel".

Well, that would explain McCoy's bridge access....Those who've argued against it have been known to...disappear.
Shatner's "jump-around-stunt boots" are visible in the fight scene in "Tomorrow Is Yesterday," too.
The Conscience of the King. He was in the rec room when a lonely Kevin Riley, who had pulled solo duty, called from the engineering room, asking to talk to anybody who was available.
As for being DeForest's stand in, MA says his only appearance was that one episode. http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/David_Troy
You know, I asked Doug Drexler a couple of weeks ago which episode featured the Tantalus Field Device turning up in sickbay, and he couldn't remember off the top of his head. Nice to get confirmation on which one it was. Thanks, CorporalCaptain!
I wonder why some Enterprising individual, pun intended, didn't use the Tantalus Field to get rid of Charlie X, Nomad and Kang.
Hmmmm....also in 'Arena', the first time Kirk kneels down to talk into his recording device, he is wearing lace up boots. Maybe the Metrons decided he needed more ankle support.
I believe the regular costume boots were also rather fragile and easily damaged, which is why the boxer-style lace-up boots were used for shooting outdoors on bare ground and for fights and stunt sequences.
"Arena" was filmed after "Shore Leave". My theory is that Shatner's custom-made boots had to be replaced after the fight scenes in "SL", and they needed a cheaper approach for "Arena." So in came the lace-up boxer's shoes.
That doesn't really explain their use in "Tomorrow Is Yesterday."
I think it does. "Shore Leave" (E17) came first, in which costume boots were damaged and had to be quickly replaced.
Then came "Arena" (E19) and "Tomorrow is Yesterday" (E21). Both used the boxer's shoes to spare Shatner's new costume boots during fight scenes.
On the subject of 3D chess and checkers...just caught a Batman two-parter that has Bruce and Dick playing a 3D chess game with four stacked boards at the beginning and the end: "The Purr-fect Crime" and "Better Luck Next Time" (aired March 16-17, 1966)--the show's first appearance of...well, you can guess.
They could have been given it when Kirk and Bones took the Batmobile for a spin that time!

The Puzzler? Wow!
In 'The Changeling', Nomad comes into engineering. Scott says something to one of his red jumpsuit engineers and even calls him 'Roger'. The man looks like Roger Holloway. Then when Nomad exits engineering, 2 red shirt security dudes are waiting. One of them is Roger Holloway.

^ Yes, and in the same episode Bill Blackburn is seen in a command tunic, then a science tunic and finally in a red engineering jumpsuit.
