Borg cortical node - any replicas out there?

[hydin]

Was marathoning Voyager earlier and they had an episode where 7's node was going wonky. They ended up de-borging a kid to get his functional one out, since a dead borg node wasn't worth the CGI to show its removal.

It did make me wonder though, out of all the trek props I see (phasers, ships, emitters, etc) I haven't seen many of the cooler props (Data's head, Borg Queen upper skull/spine, this node thing, the cane from that episode where Data's head got splodey, etc).

Has anyone seen one of these node things? They look remarkably close to a little doodle I did a couple of years ago.

If there is already a maker or a tutorial, it'll save me the trouble of scratch building this thing

Thanks

There was actually a replica of Data's head on ebay a year or so ago, then 6 months ago there was one of the screen used ones for sale!

I have always been suprised I don't see more borg stuff (Seven's eye or hand implant, borg arms, eye peices, heads, etc) for sale. With all the borg being different, there seems to be lots of options for easy builds. All I see is some borg peice being repeatedly sold on ebay, and it don't really look "borg" enough for me.

Any chance you have some pics saved? (Or anyone does?!?!?)

Yea, the total lack of "cool" props from trek has always mystified me. I like padds and phasers and whatnot the same as any guy, but I prefer stuff in my collection that is more.... "visually interesting" I guess. Don't get me wrong, there are some awesome kits and reproductions of the normal stuff, but if I had to choose between a padd, a phaser, or a borg cranial unit... I think I am going for the cool looking borg thingie.
