Nerds Of The World, Unite!

I'm not the only Star Trek fan at school.  One of our other teachers, in his spare time, makes Star Trek models.  He even has a couple in his classroom, and they're way cool.

Today he showed up with one for me:  a 1:350 scale model of a Constitution-class starship.  It's not a Federation, ship, however.  Look at the insignia.


That's right, it's a Mirror Universe starship!  And how appropriate that today, for the first time in forever, I wore a goatee.  Mirror Universe Spock!  For the Empire!

You can't tell from the pictures, but this model is about 30" long.  So many tiny lights that light up!  This is a true work of craftsmanship.

consider the continuation of that episode.

Mrs. Widget, I shall consider it :-)> (that's a goatee under the mouth)

Which continuation? I didn't much like the DS9 episodes of the mirror universe, but one of the few Enterprise episodes I liked was In A Mirror, Darkly.

Can he make you an agonizer next?

I thought I posted a link. A fan episode on what happens after Kirk leaves the mirror universe. Spock has the beard.
