Upcoming Propworx Auction is Trekkie Nirvana

23 May 2010 One Comment

Are you a Trekkie with latinum to burn? If so, you must check out this auction.

On August 12, Propworx will be auctioning off tons of Star Trek memorabilia. Spock’s ears, Worf’s latex forehead piece, phasers, tribbles, models of Quark’s bar . . . The catalog alone will have any self-respecting Trekkie drooling. Never have I so wished I was worth my weight in gold-pressed latinum.

A few of the cooler items up for grabs:

Prosthetic Vulcan ears worn by Leonard Nimoy in the Original Series
Yellow uniform shirt worn by George Takei in the Original Series
Dedication plaques for the Enterprise-E, Enterprise NX-01, Voyager, the Xhosa, and theSao Paulo
A model fragment of the Enterprise-D (as wrecked by Deanna Troi in Generations)
Plaster cast of a Seti eel from Wrath of Khan
Full Klingon warrior costume
Isolinear chips from TNG
Life cast of Brent Spiner’s face used to make the mask that appeared in “Datalore” (You know that “Spiner femme” lady from Trekkies is going to bet her life savings on this.)
Ktaran game headset from “The Game.” (No, it doesn’t really give you orgasms if you put it on.)
One of the purple chairs from the observation lounge in TNG
Worf’s prosthetic headpiece from TNG
Gold-pressed latinum bars from DSN
A ‘Niners’ baseball cap
A hor’gahn doorbell from Risa (seen on Enterprise; I so want this to put next to my own front door)
Stuff looted from the now-defunct Star Trek: The Experience (sniffle) in Las Vegas, including the captain’s chair and crew chairs from the Bridge, Borg alcoves, a Klingon sushi sign (WANT!), and some very classy Cardassian wall sconces
Proof that Scott Bakula’s kind of a jerk: for Christmas, he gave the production crew glass paperweights engraved with “Happy Holidays – The Captain.” Engraved. Glass. Paperweights. You know, like the ones with the company logo on them that some corporate bigwig gives the minions toiling in the mail room? Where’d he get them, Things Remembered?

If I were rich, I’d so be blowing money on this stuff and setting up a mini-Trekkie museum in my house. And I’d be sitting in that captain’s chair from The Experience ordering my cats to “make it so” and generally causing people to question my sanity.
