Worf, Xon and Yang

Worf (Michael Dorn) makes up for his lack of a true Klingon upbringing by trying to be a super Klingon, Kapla!



Xon (David Gautreaux) never got to play this Vulcan character, now I wonder why? He was supposed to be the USS Enterprise NCC 1701 Science Officer in the never made Star Trek II, long story short Nimoy's I am not Spock soon switched when the idea of a multi million dollar movie was in the wind. The rest you can guess. Gautreaux got a small part in Star Trek The Motionless Picture.



Yangs are the bitter enemies of the Kohms in the less than subtle allegory that was "the Omega Glory."



Live Long and Prosper.

Could there be any other W word? Worf is the perfect fit.
What an awful name, Star Trek II.
Is this actor the chap who died in the transporter malfunction?

The Motionless Picture - priceless!

There have been some motionless pictures, and that is one. Leisure suit uniforms?

The background stories are always great.

The proposed title of the series was Star Trek: Phase II. (It should be noted.)

Worf must be here and glad he is...that hunk of Klingon who knew prune juice was a true warrior's drink. I had no idea this guy was supposed to be Spock....I wonder if Nimoy ever did live down that book even if he wrote another saying he is. He needed to make up his mind.
