Commodore Robert Wesley from TOS "The Ultimate Computer" Easy to make. Just take a Kirk figure and grey the hair. Then, construct the rank insignia and mission patch from gold leaf paint. I situated the Commodore in the command chair of the U.S.S. Lexington (well, the Enterprise set double as any Constitution class starship).
Wesley first beams aboard the Enterprise to inform Captain Kirk that his ship has been selected to participate in a war games scenario. The U.S.S. Enterprise will be fitted with a special computer (the M-5) that will direct all of her actions. The final test will be a war games scenario, pitting the Enterprise against the Lexington, Hood, Potemkin, and Excalibur. Situated aboard the Lexington, Commodore Wesley unwittingly leads his fleet into an ambush.
The M-5 Computer, suddenly self aware, assumes the fleet is an attack force and cuts loose with full phasers. After suffering serious damage to his own ship, not to mention the loss of the Excalibur, Wesley rallies his remaining forces in an attack on the Enterprise. Only the intervention of the deactivation of the unit saves the Enterprise from complete destruction.
