At this past weekend’s MegoMeet, I was witness to many new, exciting things but none quite as awesome as this shirt that my pal Corey lent me to photograph. This one is just everything I love about 70s Trek merch, I wish they made it in lummoxy adult sizes today. It’s the second coolest Star […]
I was thumbing through the 1979 Southbend catalog the other night (click on it to enlarge) and correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think any of this stuff got made.

Case in point this remote control battery operated Star Trek “U.S.S. Enterprise” that is featured […]
Anyone who has read this blog knows how many of these kits I ruined with my lack of talent/patience as a kid. I think that bridge got reissued in the early nineties and I still messed it up! These days, I just love them from afar… Visit the 1975 AMT models Catalog
