    So this year, Callista and I managed to settle into a new apartment, and at the same time we found ourselves stuck in Rochester this year. So instead of being lame, we stumbled onto a deal at the now out-of-business Linens'n'Things, picking up a beautiful fake Christmas tree for a real bargain. So we set it up and realized it was the perfect time for a non-conventional Christmas. With luck, this is the start of a tradition.

    So for now, it's done, the gallery is up! Party time will ensue!

    It may not quite be the most refined form of geekdom, but it is certainly getting there! A few more years down the road and a couple dozen more acquisitions and we'll be in perfect geekdom territory!

    Ornaments include: Hot Wheels/Matchbox cars, Hasbro Titanium Series Die-Cast 3" starships, Hallmark Star Trek ornaments, and a box of Star Trek Pez dispensers. Miscellaneous other objects are scattered around.

    Looks cool Sanfam and Callista. Grats on the apartment. :)
  • SanfamSanfam I like clocks.
    Actually, blame my parents for the gifts. Since I wasn't able to go home, they shipped the goods to Callista and I.

    Jack, they're cheap! :D $6 is about the going price for one (One third the cost of a cheap Hallmark ornament), and they can often be found on ebay for less. I might even be able to scrounge up a spare if you ask nicely enough :D

    My dad has all of the Hallmark Star Trek ship ornaments. He missed the first year, and it took my mom and I a couple of months searching on ebay one year to get it for him.

    Its a lot of freaking ornaments.

    That Alfa better get moving, the last thing you want during the holidays is to get pulled over by a Star Destroyer...

    If that's supposed to be the geekiest Christmas tree ever, why isn't there a Death Star (mk1 or mk2) on top of it...?

    There is an enterprise on the bookshelf. Though the saucer looks odd.
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    That's the Enterprise lamp.

    One will eventually be fabricated. At the moment, no such model exists within my home, making for a lacking experience.

    In this particular instance, the Alfa has a slight mass advantage over the Star Destroyers. I think there is not much to fear on its part.
