Kirk and Spock Sock Monkeys: Where No Foot Has Gone Before
These are the voyages of the Starsock Monkeyprise… These Kirk and Spock sock monkeys are Kirk and Spock like you have never seen them before. I just feel sad for them because there is no McCoy to complete the trio.
These strange, yet cute sock monkeys are the work of Etsy artist SockMunkeyEmporium. They just fly around having crazy missions, enjoying bananas and sometimes they return to sock-base for repairs.
Not gonna comment on the obvious. Okay, one quick comment. Kirk obviously sat out in the sun too long while on shore leave, while Spock did the logical thing and stayed on the ship doing science stuff.
Spock and Kirk Rings Perfect for Doing the Vulcan Salute
Are you looking for some cute jewelry that won’t cost a fortune? Forget diamonds and gold. Just put some Star Trek crew members on your finger. I love these little chibi looking Kirk and Spock in their original series uniforms.
These adorable rings are from Etsy artist otterling who has many pop culture character rings for sale, so that you can make different characters hang out on your fingers. Kirk and Spock are pretty cute and I like how they are hugging your finger. All that’s missing is McCoy.
Check out their shop. They are sure to have something you like. Spock and Kirk are only $15 (USD) each.
Star Trek Fatheads Put Sci-Fi Icons on Your Wall
Star Trek purists might not appreciate the fact that I never liked the original series. I liked the original films well enough, but the original TV show was super cheesy in my opinion. I was a huge fan of The Next Generation and him firmly in camp Picard when it comes to choosing sides.
Fathead has been making life-sized vinyl stickers to decorate your walls of athletes, cars, and all sorts of other things for a long time. The company has announced it is now offering Star Trek fatheads with characters and graphics from the original series and TNG.
Whichever Captain you prefer, you’ll be able to choose between a life-size Kirk or Picard. It’s interesting to note that Kirk is only 5′-11″ tall while Jean-Luc is 6-4″ tall – a good 6 inches taller than Patrick Stewart is in real life. Though to be fair, Kirk is slightly kneeling down in his decal.
The series also includes Mr. Spock, the Enterprise from the original series, and logos from the original series. TNG fans can also get commander William T. Riker, Lieutenant Commander Data, Lieutenant Worf, as well as their updated Enterprise. Voyager, DS9 and Enterprise fans are out of luck for now though. Prices for the decals range from $39.99 for a basic starfleet logo up to $99.99 for the characters and ships.
