“I certainly do feel honored,” Koenig told us. “It means that my modest body of work has some meaning and has been acknowledged. That’s always a very nice feeling.”Countless Star Trek fans pushed hard to make today’s news a reality, and Koenig had a special message for them: “They’ve been incredible and I’m deeply grateful for their support,” he said. “Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
Apparently, he’s the last of the original crew to get a star. I doubt we’ll see many of the new TOS crew get stars for the Star Trek work.

LOSE the toupee, Chekov!
It’s like he’s pointing to his toupee, saying, “What, this? This isn’t fake? You kidding? This is real! Now, at any time, it may crawl off my skull of its own accord, but I assure you it’s real.”
