Does anyone know what these pieces the lady brought in actually are?
Star Trek Props on Pawn Stars
- Thread starter Prop Collector
- Start date
Virtually everything on Pawn Stars was a fake /set up. While it is possible the item was real, the back story likely was not. We rented things to a number of this type of show. I know of a couple of things on Pawn Stars that where borrowed from small museums as props.
Well, the “Tribble” may, in fact, be Shatner’s toupee from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, which may have some value...
However, the rest are all (poorly done / inaccurate) replicas.

Wow rented props. The phaser looks like a BN repo
The phaser and communicator at least appear to be the Coyle replicas sold through Lincoln Enterprises
Brads never looked like that, this is an old episode,that has been previously discussed here.
Old convention specials and bad ones at that

All junk. Not Coyles
my apolgies
Well, they rented from us...so I guess it's true.
no offense taken, its my fault, I glanced at the photo and thought Bn with out looking closer. cheers
Actually thinking it was a Coyle and a BN are both true, kinda. Coyles first phaser was a rework of a Jim Kirk knockoff of BN's
phaser. The aluminum body was modified with fillers and new back fins added along with the detail on the handle.
I actually own the original master.

hmm I have several of Coyle’s props (Like 10 of em) none of even looked like that. He was a fan of that Red button For a while but I picked up my first phaser from him more than 25 years ago as he is local and it looks nothing like that. Here is what a RAC Prop phaser looks like circa 28 years ago.
Rich’s Phasers have improved over the years as more and more info became available.
I remember being told what the Phasers WERE in the mid 70’s, instead of what I remembered them from watching the Show by George Takei, ie the trigger being on the bottom of the P-1 and the handle/power pack twisting off on the P-2 , and swore George was tripping!!
I hope Rich is well and doing all right in this Pandemic

For anyone who doesn't know, it's not just Pawn Stars. Storage Wars, American Pickers, American Chopper/Hot Rod, Overhaulin', any of the shows in which they build a vehicle in a week, etc.--if it's on television, to some degree it's fake.
I have the same phaser. I bought it at the World Sci Fy convention in Baltimore Md. in 1983.
I do not remember the seller but I still enjoy the prop.
