Full power to the deflectors

Yes, of course I want a full-size replica of a Constitution-class captain's chair. It's silly, and gaudy, and it would make an awesome reading chair for my office. (Only because it wouldn't fit in front of my computer desk.)

But, uh, $2700? Now, come on. I seriously doubt it cost Matt Jeffries that much to make the first one, even in 2009 dollars. Yes, corporate greed has once again saved me from making a ridiculous decision. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go get some measurements out of my old Star Fleet Technical Manual...

You can easily build one (or maybe I should say a professional carpenter) for a couple of hundred bucks. Plus with a little tweaking, you can build remotes for your entertainment center into it, and tweak the dimensions to make the chair more comfortable (there was a reason Kirk always sat at the edge).

Still, there is something about opening the box and taking out your captain's chair.

In a somewhat similar vein, the Mrs. and I were discussing just last night that we'd like to have an MST3K-themed guest room, right down to constructing our own Crow, Tom Servo, and Gypsy. :)
