Tribbles are an excellent lesson in doing more with less. What an iconic creature that's nothing more than a fistful of rabbit fur on a string.
The false Balok from The Corombite Maneuver deeply freaked me out as a child, but heart forever belongs to the Horta
"Tribbles are an excellent lesson in doing more with less."
Yes they are. And those sweet little sounds they make.
@MikeyMongol @Nmyownworld Balok is still quite scary to me. I wish they would've stuck with it instead of the weird surprise finale.
Wah Ming Chang was a very talented artist of different disciplines, and was an important part of Star Trek. He was a designer on, maybe of, the false Balok and the Salt Vampire. As well as other contributions to TOS and more.

@Nmyownworld wow, we owe him so much of what made TOS a classic!
Thanks for sharing that. We should know more about his contributions.
