You never know though, since these electronic replicas have a “Klingon mode” where they get truly battle-agitated, and that might put the wind up…

Batman’s Tumbler Replica Won’t Fly On Rooftops, Ram Through Barricades or Take a Direct RPG Round

This $499 Tumbler from The Dark Knight is confusing. On the one hand, it’s $499, but on the other hand, it’s a 1:6 replica of what Batman’s been driving in the last two movies, PLUS it’s even big enough for you to fit your 12-inch action figures in. The thing doesn’t seem to be remote…

Star Trek Medical Tricorder Goes Beep, Won’t Diagnose Alien Disease

Star Trek Communicator Replica Coming Soon, Sadly Doesn’t Communicate

This “life-size” Star Trek Communicator is a dream for every budding Kirk out there, sounding like the real thing when you flip it open, and with nine different voice phrases from the TV series built in.

Ride Around In Your Own Criminal-Built Dalek

The Australian government might have come up with the most brilliant prison plan ever: use hardened criminals to churn out replicas of science fiction props, and then sell them on eBay.
