A Closer Look At Star Trek: Discovery’s Phasers

A Closer Look At Star Trek Discovery's Phasers
The official Star Trek: Discovery Twitter page has shared a close up look at the phasers that will be featured in Star Trek: Discovery. The new phasers are very reminiscent of the one’s from “The Cage”, with a more modern look.

Set 10 years prior to the five-year mission of the Enterprise in Star Trek: The Original Series, Star Trek: Discovery follows the adventures of Starfleet on their missions to discover new worlds and new lifeforms, and one Starfleet officer who must learn that to truly understand all things alien, you must first understand yourself. The series will feature a new ship, new characters, and new missions while embracing the same ideology and hope for the future that inspired a generation of dreamers and doers.

Star Trek: Discovery will premiere on September 24.

V – The Visitors Gun Prop Weapon

V - The Visitors Gun Prop Weapon
Call me crazy, but I love both of the old V The Visitors mini-series. One of the aspects I loved were the Visitor’s weapons. You can actually buy a kit and paint the weapon yourself. It even comes with that clear acrylic rod for the center piece. Presumably where it focuses it’s power and creates the pew, pew, pew laser.

Lightsaber Designs For Him and Her

Lightsaber Designs For Him and Her
French artist and motion designer Patrick Grandi created this cool video showcasing a pair of His and Hers lightsaber designs. These designs are pretty awesome. As much as I love Star Wars lightsabers, my only gripe would be how little the hilts deviate from the original designs. I think we can do better and this concept proves it.

They should look like the elegant weapons that they are from a more civilized age. Look at all of the amazing detail in these weapons. They are downright sexy as hell, with so many curves and grooves.I just love all of the detail here. Just beautiful.

Adam Savage Builds The Space Rifle From Barbarella

Watch as Adam Savage builds the sexy and curvy space rifle from the 1960s Sci-Fi cult film Barbarella. He makes it by hand with only one image for reference. If you are in doubt that Adam is a true master in his field, just watch him work.

The end result is a sexy and sultry weapon that Jane Fonda would be proud to take into battle. It’s a long video obviously, but it is well worth watching.

Blade Runner Blaster Replica Is All You Need To Shoot Replicants

Here it is. Deckard’s blaster in all it’s glory. This just may be the coolest prop replica ever. At $900 it is pricey, but this replica is a work of art and true to the actual prop used in the movie. It has all of the details just right. Just look at this blaster come to life.

It is limited to only 50 pieces worldwide. If this amazing piece of Sci-Fi history is too much for your wallet, there’s a $570 edition available as an unassembled model kit. I could admire this weapon for hours and not get bored. Totally worth every penny.
