In this pilot, the only character that went on to the regular series was Mr. Spock. I did like The Cage a lot. It's definitely a Star Trek episode filled with all the usual themes of the series, but it features Captain Pike in the captain's chair and Majel Barrett as "Number One"-- a moniker that was revived on Next Generation as Picard called Riker "Number One".
Spock wasn't quite yet the Spock we'd know him to be as he's a lot more human like in this episode and he even smiles in a few scenes.
Mezco is releasing this limited-edition figure of Spock in their One:12 Collective line from that pilot episode.
He was originally priced at well over $100, but they have lowered the price (presumedly due to low sales because of the original, outrageous price) to $89.99.
They are calling this a "limited time sale", so go an grab him here now if you want one.
