  1. My Trek spending has been reduced significantly due to the fact that my basement is overflowing with Trek related items. These days I mostly just buy the dvds of the movies and the series. As for the most I've ever spent in a year, that would be about $1300. That was the year I bought a 1982 Sega Star Trek Arcade machine for $800 and I spent about $500 on misc. items.

    I actually want to start getting rid of a lot of my Trek stuff just to free up some space.

     

    Hey Kor37, let me know what you have, I may be interested in some things, if you're wanting to part with stuff.


  2. For anybody already looking forward to the 2009 ornaments, here's what is planned:

     


    1.  

    1. "The Menagerie", STAR TREK, Hear Captain Pike's chair beep and see it blink (one or two times) as he responds to Captain Kirk's questions
    2. K't'inga-class Klingon Battle Cruiser, STAR TREK: The Motion Picture, 30th anniversary, See the battle cruiser's glowing torpedo launchers illuminate
    3. The Illia Probe, STAR TREK: The Motion Picture, 30th anniversary Special Edition, Limited-quantity
    4. Star Trek Hand Phaser, STAR TREK, See lights flash and hear sound effects as well as lines of dialogue from the original STAR TREK television series

     

     

    Lol, that's an original! I get the Menagerie ornament just for the light up and beeping Christopher Pike!!


  3. Great to see you back on the board, and great to see you giving Enterprise a viewing. I'll look forward to seeing your opinions of the episodes. There were really some first class episodes and characters in the series, I won't go into any of that though so you can find them for yourself.

     

    Broken Bow had me from the theme song on. Many people hated the song but I found it appropriate to the series... (I'll put this next part in a spoiler, though it's not a story, plot or character spoiler)

    Click for Spoiler:

    and was really disappointed when they changed the tempo of the song in season 3.

     

    Anyway, I thought Broken Bow was a great opening story for Enterprise.

     

     

    I really liked the theme song too, I know it's contemporary, and no way sounding sci-fi, but it does have a message..


  4. I can't remember that name of the episode, and I don't think it was the worst, but it's one where the doctor is found after so many years and the rase that has him thought of Voyager as an enemy and a warship... I just kind of thought that that particular episode was kind of a filler...


  5. I agree, there was a lot more that could have been touched up in the finale episode, as well as "All Good Things..." and that was my favorite series, at least they followed up with some movies. I think a VOY movie would be kinda sweet, may a 1st mission since their return, I dunno...
