I recently finished season 2 of Picard and it made me miss classic Star Trek and made me interested again in completing the 1979 Topps set that promoted the first movie. It collects moments from the 1979 film and also several alien cards from the original TV series and has some iconic cards of the key actors from the series including William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy.
A lot of the photo cards of the cast members and aliens from the original series have a school picture/yearbook sort of vibe rather than a photo from a clip of the series or movie. I enjoy that style for the actors cards but it makes some of the alien cards look like full-body mug shots. Another great thing of these cards is the heavier cardboard used from the 70s.
