Who can afford to buy all this crap?
Afford is perhaps the wrong word, Harry. But I do find myself surrounded by a lot of it.
Useless overpriced crap.
Props & prop replicas, models & close replica toys I get, but bobble heads & other cartoony looking junk? WHY?

Wait until it suddenly hits you that they are trying to clear the “shelves”, as it were, of 2500 old Trek items because they need to make room for 2500 NEW Trek merchandize for this Christmas shopping season which gearing up to start just about: NOW!
But I gotta have me that phaser nose n ear hair trimmer… and some o them gummy Ceti eels… oh, and the Cheron Beal Salt n Pepper / Lokai Pepper n Salt shakers, please!!!!!
Doomsday Machine chip dispenser… Troyian placemats (also works as body armor)… starship-sized chrome testes…
I hate the ortiz art. So many missed opportunities. That said, I have a Trek bathrobe and don’t hesitate to recommend it. It’s lovely and comfortable.

The robe, is it durable too? Do the colors run when you wash it? I’d get a kick out of walking around the house in that (turn the wife on – ha).
CmdrR: you are cracking me up! Be careful, or they might actually start making some of your ideas!!
#8 @Caesar — I hate the Ortiz art, too. I love the idea of art prints for each episode, but I hate the execution. I’m happy for those who do like them, but let’s just say that I’m not surprised that they’re on clearance. :-)
#11 I don’t know why anyone would want 80 shot glasses, or 80 posters, or 80 coasters, or 80 shirts with those Ortiz prints.
I got the book cheap and it’s something fun to flip through but I don’t need it in any other form. Rittenhouse made a whole card series out of them and that’s the first set I had no interest in getting in a long long time.
@Danpaine
– Yes, it’s comfy. The sleeves are a little long (it’s one size) so if you’re smaller it may swallow you. I was 50 lbs heavier when I got it and it’s just gotten more comfortable.
Haven’t had a problem with colors running. I got the command one, gave the science to my brother; sort of want the operations one now too but I don’t need 2 bathrobes.

So what you’re saying is that you’re just above all of this nonsense? Yet you are so insecure that you need to come to the comment section and announce it.
Look, I get it. The collectible thing isn’t for everyone. But do you realize how insulting you sound to someone who may like to collect this stuff?
Proclaiming something or someone’s inferiority while implying your own superiority only belies your own insecurity.

” Props & prop replicas, models & close replica toys I get, but bobble heads & other cartoony looking junk? WHY?” — ME!!
Different strokes for different folks. I don’t question why my aunt collects ceramic and glass elephants; I just marvel that there’s so many to be had.
In other words, IDIC.
1. I’ve never understood the appeal of bobble heads. “Your favorite character with a disproportionately huge head that that body could never support. Oh, and it moves in ways that only a broken human neck could do!” If I wanted to see swollen heads and little bodies, I’d watch a beauty pageant.
2. Re: the Diamond Selects’ Phaser/communicator set “Now just $42.50”. I almost choked on my coffee when I read that. Was that supposed to be humor or irony? About five years ago, I bought a couple of those (when they still had the metal lids on the communicators) for less than the “sale” price now. It has simply gotten ridiculous.
16 Dis, I was about to make a comment about how I can’t understand the fascination with merchandise like bobbleheads [ecchh] but I do enjoy some of the books and now, the comics. Back in the ’80s, I bought fanzines and Trek photographs.
To each their Trek
Blow it out! Dump it all!
And yet, after lo these many years … we are still waiting for someone to follow through on manufacturing any Salt Vampire action figure…
David G, they’d have to include a victim as part of the set. Then they could jack up the price by 80%.
As we all enjoy this Labor Day weekend in North America, let’s remember that Labor Day was established to remember the efforts of the so-called “working class” to improve their social conditions. Most people will agree that Star Trek is also about improving social conditions and hence many Star Trek fans are inherently supportive of progressive movements, while many others prefer to concentrate on nonpolitical aspects of the franchise. We can all agree on one thing: Social movements have created change in our lifetimes, and the advocacy of causes for which we stand may very well reflect an aspect of our personality that expresses a most admirable interest. Whether it is democracy, freedom, justice, or simply the general advancement of humanity, this weekend is one reason our civilization may take appropriate stock of its plasticity and adaptability while remaining grounded on fundamental values.
The mini mates scale has the same level of accuracy as the JJprise. ; )
Further, how can one not understand the appeal of bobble heads? They are oversized heads AND they bobble. Woo hoo! ; )
There was a Salt Vampire figure made for the retro line.
@1. Harry Ballz,
Well, Bill Gates could afford all this crap. But that’s not really the right question.
All this crap isn’t there for just one person to acquire on their own. It’s there for friends, family, colleagues, and other gift givers to buy for you, when they can’t figure out what to get you, and suddenly remember you’re a Star Trek fan!

Rick,
I enjoy your soliloquies and this one was particularly apropos, but the part of me that is tickled by the odd turn of phrase particularly enjoys that you chose to use the phrase “…one reason our civilization may take appropriate stock of its plasticity…” in a thread where we are discussing people’s fascinations with various plastic things, i.e. bobble heads.

” There was a Salt Vampire figure made for the retro line” — TrekMadeMeFat
Make that a Salt Vampire salt shaker and a Horta pepper shaker set and I’m in. Although, I’ve often been tempted to use McCoy’s scanner as the salt shaker it really was — so I could go for THAT too.
@Disinvited, 27 — thank you for that observation. It must have been a Freudian slip, which is appropriate in that Freud was most interested in heady things….
