Star Trek: The Next Generation, Transporter Creature

original movie prop

This special effects latex puppet was used on screen in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Realm of Fear".

It was designed by Dan Curry and built by modelmaker and sculptor Carey Howe.

To create the illusion of liveliness, Curry donned green tights and puppeteered this one of a kind creature against a green screen.

The puppet was part of Curry's collection for many years and can also be seen in the TNG Season 6 DVD special featurette "Departmental Briefing Year Six - Profile: Dan Curry".
