Perry Lopez (Rodriguez in "Shore Leave") as a wild young prisoner Paladin has to stand guard on until the stage arrives to take him to justice, and Brad Weston (Ad Appel in "Devil in the Dark") as one of his brothers lurking in the darkness, in the Have Gun - episode "Siege."
 
Yvonne Craig again on Mannix, small part, only one scene, but look she still loves the color green!

Saw another Gene Roddenberry-scripted Have Gun - Will Travel." The El Paso Stage" involved Paldin being hired under false pretenses. The local troublemaker he was hired to get out of the way was in reality a young lawyer hoping to clean up the town's rigged gambling hall. When paladin refuses, the tyrannical sheriff goes medieval on his ass. No Trek alumni in the cast, but Buddy Ebson as the Sheriff and Hank Patterson as a judge represented the Beverly Hillbillys/Hooterville faction.
 
Joan Collins as the widow of a double agent summarily executed by the movie's protagonist, who then takes on said double agent's identity to investigate his connections, in the spy thriller The Executioner (1970). This is completely unrelated to the long-running action/thriller book series The Executioner which started in 1969 and has never gotten a movie adaptation despite the idea occasionally being thrown around in Hollywoodland.

I waited a good day to post this so as not to derail the eyes train, but since no one is responding further, I hope you won't mind if I put a new face in. :)

Mr. Bantanides was in two I, Spy episodes in a row, 10-2-67 and 10-9-67. At least he was Greek in one of them...

And in the latter episode, this guest start made me wanna Bonk Bonk him on the head:

Hal Needham only had to fall off an 8 foot high roof in Have Gun - Will Travel's "Broken Image." Then he got dragged on a travois for a while, with a few closeups of his pained face, aaaaaand he's dead. Not even a line this time.
 
Reunited, in another time, in another place, in another reality!
This dialog from Col. Green in Trek could work for the Mannix scene
"History tends to exaggerate. I suggest we call a halt to this at once and see if we can't find some way out of our difficulties. My associates are in full agreement with me."

Joan Collins, Tony Dante, Robert Hitchcock in Murder On Playboy Island, or aka Starsky & Hutch On Voodoo Island, an episode of Starsky & Hutch!
