I have always deseprately wanted one of these... Borg things. Borgs use them for sleeping and stuff!

And look, I’m just saying maybe it’s time you people give something back. Express some gratitude for all that I do for you. Pitch in and buy me some crap that I’ll totally treasure. Via TrekMovie:

After Star Trek: The Experience closed its doors at the Las Vegas Hilton, the attraction was dismantled and much of what was savable was put into storage at a warehouse in Las Vegas, where it has remained…. A decision has been made that most of what is in the warehouse will not be needed for any new Trek attraction. So they have decided to let the fans get a piece of what was Star Trek: The Experience….

The preliminary plan is to sell most of the larger items at a warehouse location sale in Las Vegas, with many of the smaller (and more easily shippable) items being sold at a later Star Trek auction. Items that will be sold include signage, the big โ€™shipsโ€™, the seats from the rides, prop replicas, set pieces, costumes, fixtures from Quarks Bar and the โ€˜Promenadeโ€™ shops.

FOR EXAMPLE:

I have always desperately wanted one of these... Borg things. Borgs take naps in them!
  • I have always desperately wanted one of these… Borg things. Borgs take naps in them!
  • I would legally change my name to “Captain Kathryn Janeway” if you guys bought me this. No lie!

If these items prove to be too expensive, I also accept backrubs.

  1. Why the hell would you want a starship that looks like a garden trowel? I expect more from you Erik.

    P.S. There is a sale on Indiana Jones and Star Wars Mighty Muggs at the Fred Meyer Red Tag Store on 82nd and Foster.

  2. @Marq Young: I suspect I feel the same way about Mighty Muggs as you feel about the USS Voyager. (C’mon! It’s like flying through space in a beautiful upside-down spoon! How can you not love that?)

    @kiala: Goddammit! I TOLD you I wanted a back massage from Seven of Nine–not some weird, forced-by-threat-of-assimilation backrub from Janeway. Sigh. A backrub’s a backrub, though. Thanks anyway, I guess.
