    Let's see...

    #2) Original Trek I believe. City on the Edge of Forever? Not sure. It's early.

    #8) These would be an assortment of Go-Bots, though I couldn't tell you their names.

    #2 is the Guardian of Forever from Star Trek, and #3 is the Guardian of Forever from Star Trek: The Animated Series.

    #8 are Go-Bots; I think the jet was named Guardian? This is the first time I have thought of Go-Bots in 25 years or so.

    #10 is Simon Baker from the series "The Guardian."

  5. #4 is from Space:1999, "The Guardian of Piri".
    #6 is Jason of Star Command, "The Power of the Star Disk"
    #9 is Star Trek The Next Generation, "The Last Outpost"
    #7 looks like it's from a 70's TV show, so I'm going to guess Logan's Run!

  6. Hi everyone, you're all doing great keeping up with the guardians of cult-tv.

    Woodchuckgod, you correctly id'd the Guardian of Forever and the Go-Bots. Excellent!

    Chris G: You got #3 and #10, outstanding!

    And Pierre, you correctly identified #4, #6 and #9.

    But #7 is still on the table!

    best,
    John
