Star Trek Costume

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

A while back, anyone could head down to the local fabric store and acquire a ST pattern for a Halloween costume. Well, these days, the fabric shops are few and far between, and I haven’t seen a ST costume pattern in the store for years.

So, aside from traveling to the nearest ST convention and hoping for a pattern in the sale room, what do you do?

I found some ST costumes online, and yes, they have larger sizes too!

It’s at Costume Craze

They have LOADS of Star Trek costumes, even a GORN mask!

Go check ‘em out! Get ready for the season’s Halloween parties!

NCC-1701

Imagine sitting at your computer, chatting on a connected web cam. Sure, you do it all the time right?

But do you do it with a Star Trek Enterprise shaped web cam?

I didn’t think so!

It’s out now! Just in time for the upcoming holiday season. Be sure to put one on your Christmas gift list!

It’s a traditional web camera that hooks up to your computer via a USB cord, and is flexible, and best of all, it’s just COOL!

Bob Eubanks Would Say?

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

Can you just see Bob Eubanks hosting the newest version of the Newlywed Game today?

Appearing soon on the Newlywed Game will be Star Trek’s own George Takai and his husband, Brad Altman.

It’s a Star Trek first and a Newlywed game first. The first show with gay couples.

Can you just imagine the questions they’ll dream up?

They’re be going where no game show has gone before…

I just heard that the Star Trek Online team is now taking applications for the Star Trek Online beta.

Star Trek gamers rejoice! They’re looking for people to ferret out bugs.

You can apply to be a beta tester by visiting:

Trekkers who bought a 6 month or lifetime sub to Champions Online are ALREADY accepted. You don’t need to apply.

That gives us another reason to await the new fall season!
