    #7 - That'd be one Mr. Robert Englund in some flavor of "V" - no idea which one though.

    #10 & 11 - This is a guess. I do not recognize directly either of these shots. However, the CGI looks distinctly like Mainframe Entertainment's work. (I'm a fan.) So taking that, and contextual things you've mentioned into account - I'm going to take the stab that they're both Beast Wars.

    I'll call it good with those and I'll let that cover my 'blind guess' bank for the day :D

    1. Hi woodchuckgod,

      Brilliant identifications (as usual). You successfully recognized Robert Englund on V: The Series, as well as characters from Beast Wars (Dinobat and Black Arachnia, respectively).

      Well done, my friend!

    1. Hugh,

      You did a great job here, as you always do, and took a number of these gallery images off the table.

      #1 is Martin Landau, but from The Twilight Zone, not MI
      You got 2, 5, 8, 9, and 12 also correct. Awesome. But 3 is still outstanding, as is number 13!

      Great job!

    1. Hi Brian

      Excellent ID on #4. That's indeed Dione from Space:1999's "The Last Enemy." #5 is British too, and from virtually the same time period as 1999...

      best,
      John
