Tricorder Replica

I’ve never been much of a Star Trek fan, Star Wars was always more to my liking. I’ll admit that when I was younger I would watch reruns of the the original series when there was nothing on during Saturday afternoons. If you’re a bit more passionate about the show than I, you’ll love this new Tricorder replica.

This Star trek Mark IX Science Tricorder Replica is the most authentic replica ever made. It is cast from the same pattern used to create the original props from the TV series and made from die-cast metal and plastic. You’ll need to be quick to jump on this one though, it’s limited to only 2,000 pieces. A deep wallet will help you too, as one will set you back $349.99.

Looks like it’s from The Next Generation, not the Original Series.
