#Star ships

[tendie-defender]

These are some of the coolest I’ve seen pics of what people made… but this one is by far the most insane.

Of course mods were used to make ships this massive.

Enterprise Doll Bag???

So the most important thing to know is that I absolutely hate sewing. No I don’t hate it a little I hate it the way you hate bleeding out on the carpet. That being said, I love my small humans and they really love Star Trek and their birthday is coming up. Why can I buy a sparkle sword from 50 different companies but hardly anyone has Star Trek toys? It irritates me.

Soooooo I have been sewing a bag and I’m going to stuff it full of tiny sewn Star Trek dolls. Clearly I have issues because I swore like a sailor the entire time I made this bag. (I’m the type of person that says what the beep… in real life) and yet I am going to make an entire crew for them. The bag is finished except for the straps.

Tada it’s just about done and only cost me my will to live 😬 what do you think about the dolls? Stuffed or unstuffed?

Also anyone have any idea how to make a phaser… or tricorder?

"Can the captain of the Exodus class Ktletuccete starship parked near Luna please move your vessel to a Sol-Earth Lagrange point four? Earth-Luna Lagrange point one is not an acceptable orbit for a vessel of your mass. Thank you."

Star Wars

Collector Fleet

Imperial Star Destroyer (loose)

by Kenner (Hasbro) (1997)

Back in April of 2021 I got this on eBay for about $28. I never had this toy, growing up in the 90s, but I figured, why not.

The ship is a length of over 16 inches and it’s got electronic lights and sounds with four buttons in the dorsal section.

The ship is mostly unpainted gray plastic, with some darker gray sections painted here and there, and finally at the aft section three of the three main engine boosters are made out of clear plastic.

It’s minimalist, but appropriate for the Empire.

Press one of the four buttons in the front of the ship, and not only do you hear one of four sound, but the engines light up. It only lasts a few seconds, unfortunately.

Comparing the Kenner ISD to the Playmates USS Enterprise (which these two ships aren’t to scale at all) but for the purposes of these toy, the Enterprise a much larger toy.

Final Thoughts:

It’s a fun toy. It’s simple, it looks good, and I kind of wish I’d bought it years ago. and I wouldn’t mind if Hasbro made these again for today. But that’s likely not going to happen.

S3 | Chapter 18 - THE MINES OF MANDALORE

[divine-nonchalance]

Tonight I saw two meteors and a UFO, it looked like a big bright star gliding by until it disappeared behind clouds.

Before seeing the UFO I was locating Arcturus in the sky saying hi, and earlier today I saw art depicting a skinny blue Arcturian.

I thank them for showing their ship and welcome them. Asking for identification I saw big black eyes in meditation.

What a glorious night!!! My bliss knows no bounds, I feel groovy!!!

Much love to everyone!

Apparently, back in the day, there was a really notorious tie in novel for Star Trek that had a lot of slash elements called Killing Time

The slash elements were requested to be removed by Paramount, and they were, BUT due to a mistake, the original was sent to print without the edits

When it was caught, they’d printed 250k of this “first edition” which subsequently became collectors items for Kirk/Spock fans, since later editions DID include the edits censoring the slash

NOW, I bring this up because my friend who’s into the original Star Trek found and was reading the first edition at the desk at the library we work at, cause we’re slow on weekends and we’re the only ones here. She laughs at it, so I ask and she tells me about the general backstory of the book, and that she laughed because (among other things) Kirk, who doesn’t get mad in the og series really, was being described as hot headed and apparently just getting into fights left and right

So I’m looking over her shoulder at the scene, commenting on the character changes that resemble modern fic-degradation of characterization for the sake of a shipping dynamic, when I realize something

Now, my only interaction with the Star Trek series directly was the 2009 reboot, and my friends hasn’t seen those and is only interested in the originals. As I’m looking at this scene, and my friend is pointing out the character changes to Kirk, I realize that this is the fucking premise of the reboot, down to the fucking alternative timeline shenanigans, the rank swap, and Kirk being a hotheaded fuck up

The 2009 film was literally based on this slash fiction misprint they tried to bury!

Im reeling.

I can’t be the only one who made this connection.

So I google to see if anyone else has, and oh yes, good, there was someone

The fucking author of Killing Time

…I feel like I’ve uncovered a conspiracy. I’ve still got 3 hours left in my shift and I can’t focus. The world must know.
