1st: Tribble...pointless furry creature.

2nd: Orion Women...something about green skinned horny women is just so appealing.

The shape-shifting salt-monster.

And the zombie at the start of "Miri", who seemed to be the inspiration for the depiction of the Uruk-Hai in the new LoTR movies.

Yep, how can someone not like tribbles? Besides Klingons I mean (I guess Tribbles can sense stupidity). All they do is eat and reproduce, over and over and over.

The Horta and the Tholians. It's interesting to me that, despite the much lower budget and inferior special effects technology, the original series often seemed to have the best aliens.

Which ones are the Horta?

I have to go with the Gorn, they looked the most realistic and coolest to me.

Second place goes to the tribbles, you just have to love those little things.

Hortas are from the episode "Devil In The Dark" it is a silicon based lifeform

I remember seeing a kid wearing a Horta costume at a convention.

Didn't his knee's get sore, playing as a rock/slug?

Her costume was designed such that she could stand up. It wasn't very good. It looked more like a rock with legs than a Horta. She could have improved it by adding skirts or perhaps wheeling herself about on a dolly.

I think I still have photos lying around of my sister at a convention. She wore Trill spots and got teased by some Klingons.

Tribbles, you can never have too many tribbles (which is a good considering how quickly they breed).

As long as there are Klingons to take care of them, you mean. :twisted:

Tribbles are a great WMD. People will accept them without question. They won't suspect anything until it's too late... :twisted:

Trelane, but he's not really a "critter."

Ok, I guess the M-113 creature (salt sucker).
