R.I.P. Spock. Truly one of the most interesting characters ever set in Movies and TV and Nimoy had the perfect demeanor for the part.

Agree - one of the most iconic characters in recent TV & movie history. He'll be missed.

He was also an accomplished photographer.

Look up the "Full Body Project". Just be aware its very much NSFW.

Can't say I share the same preference, but whatever lights your fire is fine with me! I wont argue against the truth in advertising of the title....


NSFW link.....It's OK for squirrels, they've seen everything anyhow.

THE FULL BODY PROJECT BY LEONARD NIMOY

He was such a nice man and funny and talented. Aw, I am really going to miss him. I know he had COPD and I read he was ill but I was hoping he'd be okay and make it longer. His going definitely leaves a huge void. I was totally raised to be a Trek fan. Dad was always watching it and I became addicted to it very young. Spock was always my favorite Trek character. Only John De Lancie's Q even comes close to rivaling my affection for Nimoy and Spock. It's like a favorite uncle died or something. I am SO sad right now. I really am. RIP Mr Nimoy. You will be so missed!

He was the only reason why I gave the star trek re-boots by JJ Abrams a shot in the first place.

Spock was my favorite character.
