/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

My brutal but fair take:

I feel the bigwigs for Star Trek would sacrifice us all, in a heartbeat, for their own Grogu to get the kiddos buying merch.

[–] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 31 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

I dunno. They’ve been pretty hesitant to mass merchandise. It took Lego until this year to finally get them to license Star Trek for Lego builds. (And yes I will be buying a Lego original series enterprise bridge diorama, if the make one)

If they release a massive $1000 Enterprise-D I am all over that shit.

[–] dontpanic@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Where will I put it? That’s a problem for future me, now shut up and take my money.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

I say we spend $100,000,000 on lego and build a 1:1 scale enterprise D in the local, uh gravity is still real so ocean? Who's with me.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 3 points 20 hours ago

I got the Mega Bloks TOS Enterprise on clearance for like $50 7-8 years ago. Still haven't built it, nowhere to put it. ☹️

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.org 15 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

What? Blue Brixx has been making Star Trek models for years. Their delta flyer is amazing

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 11 points 21 hours ago (1 children)
[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.org 10 points 21 hours ago

Yes? The point was that Star Trek was not merchandised and not that it wasn't merchandized by Lego. There have been plenty of Star Trek merch deals

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 6 points 21 hours ago

They had an agreement with Mega Bloks back in the day

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 12 points 20 hours ago

They missed the window. Tribbles could've been the first beanie babies.

[–] Pickle_Jr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

You say that but yet they refuse to make an official moopsy plush. I would go all in on moopsy but noooo

Yes but will it devour the pile of bones in definitely not my basement?

[–] jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 8 hours ago

I've not seen any bones laying around since I got one.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

username checks out

Wow... it's been a minute since I said that!

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

it is important to note that none of the bones are sapient or screaming. this is not my fault.

one day i will complete the droning throne of bone. one day.

[–] sxan@midwest.social 21 points 21 hours ago

I would, if they sold an action figure.

I know, this is c/tenforward and the last two should be flipped for the community... but my heart can't lie.

There was the Alpha 177 canine with the horn :D
