UPDATE: Finished!! See Post #10 for the final result!
Hey all,
As I've been watching through season 2 of Discovery, having just finished Lower Decks and Picard in the past half-year, I was inspired to look at putting together a shadow box display of the most iconic insignia from the whole canon. I've done some searches on our forums, and while I've found some helpful info, I'm still left with a lot of question marks....I already own the (Roddenberry?) replicas of the TNG and DS9/Voyager Comm badges (with the appropriate "M" logo imprinted on the back of the casting behind the velcro....) and have started looking to fill out my collection with the best replicas of each era. This is where I was hoping to get some input help!
Here is the list I know I'm seeking: (are there any other significant items I'm forgetting??)
- Original series patch
- ST:TMP circle badge
- ST2:TWOK - ST6:TUC badge
- Future Imperfect
- All Good Things...
- Picard variant on All Good Things badge
- JJ Abrams / Kelvin command badge
- Discovery Command badge (I've seen the Quantum Mechanix one, but it doesn't have the rank pips as the ones on the show do?)
- Section 31 black badge
- Discovery Season 3 badge (I'm watching season 2, but I've heard a bit about season 3).
Any thoughts/leads on the most authentic replica versions of any of these? I know I can get metal pins of most online, and I'm fine with that...but I also know the cast versions of the TNG/DS9/Voyager pins I have look and feel so much more authentic than the metal versions of each I own.
I appreciate any and all leads/insight/thoughts about this as I begin putting it together!
