Possibly only slightly less boring than all the nonsense we've seen on page one of this forum for the past week or two is the fact that I've added YET ANOTHER tricorder to my trek collection:

tric_b.jpg


Though not exactly screen used, this one was built up by Trek propster Ed Miarecki to be used in the box art and instructional manual for the roddenberry.com kits. Pretty cool.

As always, full write up and personal commentary is on the webstie.

Did you get Mr Miarecki's permission to photograph his work? Have you gotten signed approval from all other tricorder owners to show off an item that will surely devalue their tricorders? Isn't that color of sheet illegal to post online? I would STRONGLY suggest (although I am not threatening) that you take that picture down... or you might be getting a visit from a flock of irate tribbles...
 
I am extremely rich & powerful, and for one reason or another I want you to take that picture down.
-OR-
I am a lurker, and will be reproducing that as a paper prop & selling it on ebay for $1000.

I kid, I kid. Nice prop.

lol well put.
 
Due to the request of the president of paramount, Majel Barrett, Ed Miarecki, Mike Moore, and Patrick Stewart, I have decided to remove my photos. however, as a favor to the community that I love and support, I will give them all a virtual "finger" by keeping them up for another 24 hours. So please, for the love of god, right click on the photo and hit the "save as" option on your pop up menu. Please, host my picture on a billion mirror sites all around the world so fans of this piece can share in the picture before Paramount declares all out war on me and sues me into oblivion.

In the mean time, i'll be emailing EVERYONE on the planet to discuss a clandestine operation to reproduce this item illegally. But it's on the downlow, and I don't want to get caught.

oh, and please check out my ebay auctions for the replicas.

This replica superceedes all previous replicas that were offered by me, and is the real deal. Though I reserve the right to release a more accurate version at any time in the future. But fear not, you'll get a .03% discount off the newer model if you send in your old model.

word up.
 
best week long set up comedic timing on the RPF...

EVER.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA... HA... HA... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...


dude im going to make an at cost run of the pics he isnt supposed to be showing, but they are on special paper so they are going to be $10,000 dollars a piece, if you have a prob with my calculations i will do my best to publically insult your intelegence and/or character. :lol


was that too far? (i can never tell) :angel

Start a thread in the junkyard, then cancel it.

Dayum. Callz in da Police, cuz I'zz busted.. I'm catastrophically embarassed to say that I actually do. It's actually a pillow case, but yeah, i take it with me, cuz ya never know when you're gonna need it. in fact YOU are partially responsible for this. I was in england (or was it australia??) when I recieved your Lechter FBI file. I was super bummed because I couldn't photograph it for my website. So next time i was in SoCal, i grabbed the classic munson blue pillow case out of storage for future use.

True story.
 
That is a sweet tricorder Matt, thanks for sharing the pic. :)

By the way, not to side track this tread, but I saw a tricorder somewhere that looked different then the ones I've seen before. It looked like the TNG ones used, but it was more compact maybe smaller. Do you know anything about this Matt?
 
Always great to see another Prop from Ed in your collection.

He's a great guy..
 
Surely this thread contravenes the zero-tolerance to humour about the current situation ruling?

Nice tricorder :D
 
Matt, this is the best thread ever. Well played...and nice Tricorder.

PS-I heard that William Shatner himself is quiet upset with these pictures being posted. Oh wait that is ToS. Nevermind.

Now that is a funny story and I dont care who you are... a pillow case. That is great, the trademark Matt Munson photographic background is a pillow case. Dude, you need to take this thing with you, it is better to be prepared... you never know what is going to be sent to you. I am not one to talk about taking photos of props, I am very inconsistent.

Anyway, that really is a fine piece and will make a great addition to your collection. It really looks like it came right off of the set. Does this model do the light and sound sequence or just the lights?

Outstanding... ROTFL

:lol
 
Due to the unwritten RPF 'Fairness Policy', I hereby give notice to Matt Munson that it is patently unfair you owning so many sleek Tricorders while all I have is a poorly finished static (which I've meant to re-do, but..) Thus, in order to balance this Tri-corder situation I hereby request you send me one of your nice Tricorders. To be fair to those with even less tricorders than myself, I will offer my poor resin piece to anyone without a tricorder, after receiving a nice tricorder from Mr. Munson. Naturally I will have to charge shipping and handling, not to exceed $500 to the recipient of the poor resin piece.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Jay
