Hasta La Gadget!

What do you get the geek girl who has everything? Get her a Star Trek purse. This one even comes with little Tribbles attached. I don’t think a Tribble infestation should be a problem, unless your purse is full of quadrotriticale. If this is what you carry around with you, you have bigger problems than Tribbles.

This purse has Star Trek images all over it, a removable Tribble key fob and a custom Delta charm. It measures 12-inches long x 9-inches tall x 5 1/4-inches wide. It is also printed all over with the Trek logo, phasers, Spock, Uhura, Bones, and more.

It will cost you $49.99(USD) from Entertainment Earth, and is part of a larger series of Star Trek merch coming from A Crowded Coop. You can pre-order now and it will ship in August. This purse makes a nice gift for female Trek mate.

Starfleet is open to almost all lifeforms who are capable of completing the academy’s courses – apparently even Tribbles. This is the only Tribble to ever join Starfleet and there are many good reasons for that. Becoming an officer is filled with trials and tribb-u-lations. You see what I did there?

First, the way Tribbles multiply, if you get one Tribble officer on a ship and sail from port, you will come back with thousands. Then there’s the whole stepping on them thing. That’s why they don’t often join Starfleet. The only one that ever did got sent on an away mission was immediately eaten by a giant cat and then coughed back up.

This guy was made by Michal Wright-Ward and was a contribution to a Star Trek-themed art show at QPOP in Los Angeles. You can see some of the other contributions to the show here, but this is the funniest, in my opinion.
