Yeah, fair. I can certain see how that would limit interest.

I wish I was familiar enough with miniatures games to give you an answer regarding playstyle, but my experience is fairly limited. My favourite miniature game would be FFG's X-Wing game, though I stopped playing when they went to second edition.

If your store has the space for it, have you considered setting up a league night? GF9 has a league kit that includes an exclusive Q figure, and that might be enticing enough to the purchasers to get them coming in, and you could get a good look at the game.

I find "USS Callister" especially funny because early on in Disco's run, people would point to it as what new Trek should be, but the episode is all about how someone obsessed with an old sci-fi television show is a loser and a creep, and then it ends with the protagonists getting a Kelvin universe-esque upgrade, lens flares and all.

Media literacy!

When I first posted this to reddit, a couple t-shirt bots immediately stole it and posted it to some shady webstores. I tried to make an account with a more reputable site, because I figured if anyone was going to make money off my dumb bullshit, it should be me, but for whatever reason they wouldn’t accept it.

So, to answer your question, if you see it online, I would not have any hard feelings about your purchasing it, but I personally wouldn’t trust the seller with my credit card info.

That one may have been the inspiration for this one, if I’m being perfectly transparent.

Y'know, I don't think I've ever actually seen Mr. Pibb available here, but I still believe my having one at the theatre is more likely than there being a new Star Trek movie in theatres any time soon.

As always, I will not actually believe there is a new Trek movie being made until my butt is in the seat, with a popcorn in one hand, Dr. Pepper in the second hand, opening credits already rolling on the screen.

Four times watching the entire series?

Allamaraine, count four more!

Now that you mention it, it has been a while for that as well....

Why would Starfleet be so fundamentally uninterested in learning about an enitity literally birthed by one of their Starships?

Well, clearly you're going to have to start again.
