Packing a weight of 15 pounds and a full-sized length of over three feet, the Lancer has been crafted out of polystone before getting a hand-painted finish. And if you'd like to actually own this work of art, you can preorder the Lancer now for $950.

It'll ship in February, or just in time to destroy any intimate relationships you may have before Valentine's Day. [Triforce via Kotaku]

Or, if you're interested, this remote control RMS Titanic is a mere $2,500 away.

What do you get for that lofty sum? Well, aside from the inevitable date with an ice cube you're already planning in your heads right now, you'll get a six-foot 1:150 scale model that's been hand crafted from 300 pieces over the course of 400 man hours.

Some of those 300 pieces sound pretty impressive too, like the real mahogany and cedar used in the superstructure and detailing. The three propellers guide this Titanic lite around at 5mph for up to three hours. [Hammacher Schlemmer via OhGizmo]

Available at Amazon on June 4, this $50 piece of retro goodness is the tricorder that started it all, and is the perfect gift if you're the kind of Star Trek fan who thinks Abrams is the devil.

As you fume silently at the screen when Chris Pine tears down years of your life by reinventing Capt. James T. Kirk, press a button or two on the comforting facade of this piece of television history. Then coo softly as the tricorder beeps and boops with sound samples from the original series. Sigh heavily as your fingers catch on its sharp sides. It's pain, yes, but it's a good pain!

When Spock and Uhura lock lips in a display of love that's an affront to the WAY THINGS OUGHT TO BE, simply remove the detachable scanner accessory and go on an extended away mission to the local 7-11. You'll feel better immediately.

And remember, this is a "role play" replica, meaning it's convention and cosplay approved!

But seriously folks. As Leonard Nimoy himself said of haters on SNL last night (alongside Pine and Zachary Quinto), "to not like [Star Trek] would make them dickheads." Fascinating.

That dust is 1980s dust. That means this chopper is a collector's item, not filthy dirty. Bidding started at about $40,000, and concludes later today.

If the items featured above were a little to rich for your blood, you can still get a piece of the action with a few of these gadgets—most priced well under $250:

Rather than functionality, the BrickGun Desert Eagle on the right goes for realism, and yes, it's made of 288 genuine Lego parts. It's BrickGun's biggest handgun model yet, and it looks close enough to the real thing to fool a convenience store clerk. Remarkable. It's $55 for the parts and instructions. – Charlie White
