Oh lord- monsterphile- I have to see your starships!!  Did you get the Christopher Pike ornament from Hallmark that beeps?

In opposite order--  No, I didn't get the Pike ornament, although I do have a good number of the Trek figure ornaments.   As for the Starships, I missed the first year original Enterprise Hallmark ornament (the one that commands a high price these days).  At the time, the store only had the display one, and back then the clerk wouldn't sell the display one.  Here is a shot of my ceiling with a string of white Xmas lights and some of ornaments plugged into it.

Deep Space Nie (with the Trek mini ships docked) and the Enterprise from the "Enterprise" series (this one doesn't plug in.


Off the wire the Enterprise 1701A (from one of the movies as I recall) (also a newer STAR WARS  Naboo(?) fighter
On the wire: Enterprise 1701E from a lter movie, the Defiant from ST:DS9, the Voyager form that series, Enterprise from ST:TNG

"To boldly glow where no one's gone before!" The Penetrator: a glow-in-the-dark novelty condom featuring the USS Enterprise of "Star Trek". The box say it's made in England for Gasworks Inc., Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA.

Good thread title, because the majority of the attendees at the Sci/Fi [heavy on the Trekkie side] convention near me would have NO IDEA what to do with this!

Would the "where no one's gone before" mean that the device is intended for violating virgins, or the wearer having intimate relations being an unheard of event?

Well, he could, but then he'd have to... kill you.

Glommer awaits by Therin of Andor, on Flickr

The glommer, a prototype genetically-engineered tribble predator created by Klingons ("More Tribbles, More Troubles" episode of Filmation's Star Trek: The Animated Series), stalks a group of tribbles. The brown tribble (left) is a genuine TV prop and once appeared onscreen in the live-action "The Trouble With Tribbles".

The brain itself is just one of those things they sold around Halloween.  The display globe is something I got at a yard sale that originally probably had dried flowers or something like that in it.  Then, I just substituted the rubber brain for dried flowers.  A lot of times you can get domes very cheaply like that, especially if the display item is messed up (broken butteefly wings or flowers).  I just want the dome and base for "specimens".

You're a sick,sick man. I admire that.

Aw! Just caught a re-run of that Next Generation episode I mentioned before......The Survivors. I had forgotten that the song in Troi's head had originated as  the sound from a musicbox Data had found facinating while visiting the one home left from the nuclear devastation on the planet. Also, the powerful being revealed at the end was called a Doud.  Still a special episode with me.   Buddy

  Rob, that Brain Globe is pure art man.  Don't let any rabid monkeys tell you different.  Pure creative genius, wish I thought of it.

I finally remembered to take a pic of my favorite Star Trek piece:

This is the 1979 Mr. Spock liquor decanter done for "Star Trek: The Motion Picture". It's in excellent original condition. I've already told my daughter that when I shuffle off this mortal coil, I want to be cremated and have my ashes placed in this decanter. I promised to haunt her if she didn't do it
