In a shocking turn of events, a long-lost phaser and communicator from the iconic sci-fi series ‘Star Trek’ are set to go up for auction. Woah, hold onto your seats Trekkies, this is one story that’s going to blast you into warp speed!
The props, which were used by the original series’ cast, have been missing for several years, leaving nerds worldwide in a state of disarray. However, it’s now been confirmed that the items have not only resurfaced but will be sold to the highest bidder.
We managed to speak to some of the trekkies themselves, and their emotions were palpable. “I can’t believe it,” said one. “This is the best day of my life!” added another. We’re not sure if that’s sad or impressive.
But who will have the privilege of owning these props? Will it be a dedicated collector, a romulan spy, or perhaps William Shatner himself? The possibilities are endless. Unfortunately, we’re not sure the phaser will be able to take down any Klingons or Romulans, but it’s still a pretty cool piece of sci-fi history.
The auction is expected to bring in a pretty penny, with estimates reaching the millions. But let’s face it, with the extent of the fandom, there may be a bidding war that brings in even more cash than the gross revenue of all the Star Trek movies combined.
So, what can we expect from the buyer of these props? Will they continue to enhance their Star Trek memorabilia collection or perhaps create their very own USS Enterprise complete with a transporter and holodeck? Let the imaginations run wild.
We reached out to the auctioneer, Mr. Scott, and asked him for his thoughts on the sale. “Beam me up! Oh wait, I’m already here,” he joked unconvincingly. “In all seriousness, these props are out of this world. We’ve had interest from all corners of the galaxy, and we’re excited to see where the bidding takes us.”
Thank goodness for this exciting news, as we’re sure trek fans worldwide were bored with just Netflix-binging the series for the hundredth time. Now they can add these iconic props to their already extensive collection of memorabilia, figures, and costumes.
So, buckle up, folks, the auction is set to take place very soon, and we can hardly wait to see the winning bid. Will it be the Federation or perhaps the Romulan Empire that ultimately wins these phasers? Regardless, we’re anticipating a memorable sale that will go down in history, much like the series that inspired it.
