Salt Me Up Scotty! These must have Star Trek Salt and Pepper Shaker sets are a must for any trekkie worst his weight in salt.
First one is a ceramic version of Capt. James T. Kirk and Mr. Spock. Come to think of it, the Salt Vampire from “The Man Trap” (seen below) would be ‘saltavating’ at these The Spock and Captain Kirk Salt and Pepper Shakers complete any table.
Also a must have to complete your set are the ceramic versions of the Starship U.S.S. Enterprise and the Galileo Shuttlecraft. The Shuttle and the Enterprise stick together thanks to magnets and separate easily when you need to use them.
What is next a squeezable dispenser shaped like Khan. You know, for Khan-diments.
Ok maybe not to funny, so add your own. It’s a Big trek universe.
As far as cool gadgets go, Star Trek introduced many electronics devices decades before they arrived. This Christmas I found some, out of this world Star Trek items and at the bottom of this post is the new Star Trek Trailer - Includes Old Spock, and screen shots. Enjoy and “Live Long and Prosper”

Star Trek Plate Covers make light switches fun again
Star Trek is 40 years old, and collecting Trek stuff has always been fun. Amid it you know this to be true. You’ve got a communicator, sure. You may even have a phaser, but do you have 24th century wall panels? So then bring a little Trek home with these very cool Star Trek TNG plate covers from thinkgeek.com. Star Trek 9 is all retro and will be out soon, so why not retro fit your light switches and wall sockets. They complete with LCARS interface designs, the panels are just props, and they do not interface with the Enterprise. The power plug plate is the coolest as it says Plasma Flux Hazard. And that means you might have to get out fast. Quick, Beam me Up, Scotty!
