The Women of Star Trek Postage Stamps

The Women of Star Trek Postage Stamps
Star Trek stamp collectors are having a great year! This year we had the Enterprise stamps, DS9 stamps, and the 50th anniversary stamp set. Well, get ready for The Women of Star Trek stamp set.

These were issued in January by Tuvalu and they feature some female characters from all the series. You get two miniature sheets, one featuring six stamps, and the other a single stamp. You get Doctor Beverly Crusher, Nyota Uhura, Captain Kathryn Janeway, Hoshi Sato, Kira Nerys, and Jadzia Dax. If you aren’t in Tuvalu, you can order them through the Inter-Governmental Philatelic Corporation.

Star Trek: The Next Generation Teeny Tins Lunchboxes

Star Trek The Next Generation Teeny Tins Lunchboxes
One thing that stinks about “growing up” is that we no longer all carry around lunch boxes like in the old days. Well, it may not be socially acceptable to pack a lunch in your favorite geeky lunch box, but hey, we can still collect them.

These six tiny tin miniature lunch boxes are screenprinted on both sides with the Enterprise’s crew and they measure 3.3″ W x 3″ H x 1.4″ D. Awesome. I’m gonna display these on my shelf. They may not be big enough to hold a lunch, but they are a great reminder of the lunch boxes we could have had, but didn’t.

Awesome Sci-Fi Vehicle Art Prints

Awesome Sci-Fi Vehicle Art Prints
Geek up your walls with these cool Sci-Fi Vehicle Art Prints from UltraPrint. They have a large assortment of cool geeky prints including Star Trek ships, Star Wars vehicles, Batman’s vehicles and more. These look great and come as sets. You can get them in different colored backgrounds. I love the Star Trek ships and the set showing off some of Batman’s toys, although they are all very cool.

Star Trek: Enterprise Stamps From Liberia

Star Trek Enterprise Stamps From Liberia
Why do all of the other countries get all of the cool things? Liberia recently got their first ever postage stamps focusing on Star Trek: Enterprise. They were issued at the end of December and as you can see they are pretty awesome. They focus on the aliens in Enterprise. There’s an Andorian, Silik of the Suliban, the Klingon Doctor Antaak, Doctor Phlox and two Vulcans, T’Pol and Suval. I would love to get my hands on these. I bet the people of Liberia are very happy with these.

First Mega Bloks Star Trek Construction Sets

First Mega Bloks Star Trek Construction Sets
We had news earlier this year that Mega Bloks had secured the license to produce Star Trek construction toys. They aren’t LEGO, but hey, all of the images you see here are awesome, so how can you complain? At NYCC they are showing off the Enterprise and two other sets that will be released in the fall of 2016.

The biggest set is the USS Enterprise, which will apparently be over three thousand pieces and have light up nacelles to boot! It comes with two figurines: Kirk and Spock in dress uniforms. This ship is a 1/350 scale set that will cost $250. If you want something more affordable but no less cool, the Klingon D7 class will be $30. This one also comes with a figure, a Klingon obviously with a banner of the Empire on a display base.

The coolest one as far as I’m concerned is the transporter room from the mirror universe, featuring mirror Kirk and Spock, and a mid-transport Scotty. This set lights up with glow-in-the-dark elements. Also the mirror universe designs can be flipped around to make it look like the prime universe transporter room.

These are some awesome sets, that’s for sure. The bottom image is a Command chair made using Mega Blocks that is on display at NYCC.

Star Trek: Ships Of The Line Posters Book

Star Trek Ships Of The Line Posters Book
The Star Trek: Ships Of The Line Posters Book is sure to scratch your itch. You know the one I’m talking about. When you just need to lay your eyes on that sweet eye-candy that is Star trek vessels and admire all of their curves and flowy lines. This is the nerd version of a pin-up calendar for guys like me.

The Enterprise and most of the other ships are just so lovely and I have had a love affair with them all of my life. These posters are perfect for framing or just admiring in the book. It’s the kind of book that comes off my shelf regularly so I can fall in love all over again.

You can make your own room look more like a starship captain’s ready room with this Star Trek Enterprise Color Changing LED Desk Lamp. This is one beautiful lamp. Captain Picard would love to have this in his own ready room.

It comes with an RGB remote for changing the color of the lamp. If you are having a party you can even make it flash. It looks like it belongs on the actual Enterprise bridge. This one is a must for any Star Trek fan.

Star Trek Ships of the Line Playing Cards

Star Trek Ships of the Line Playing Cards
Spice up your next poker night with some cards that only a Star Trek fan could love. These Star Trek Ships of the Line Playing Cards are beautiful and each card features a unique ship along with the usual numbers and suits. It doesn’t matter what game you are playing, you will love these playing cards.

They measure about 2 1/2-inches x 3 1/2-inches and sport a linen type finish. They are probably the loveliest cards I have ever seen. Then again, I love Star Trek ships.
