Lameness to the Power of Lame!

OK, so I'm a bit slow, as we have recently moved and all, and I had to rediscover were I'd put them... but this is a response to a post made by the most excellent Lee Sargent on his Blog here .

This is what I came up with after the exhaustive search, and confusion and delays:

Back in 2002 (it seems so long ago... oh... hang on... it is!) Paramount decided to release the entire series of Star Trek: The Next Generation season by season in fancy-schmancy plastic boxes for an inordinately large amount of money. So much so that I couldn't bring myself to part with said spondoolies.  (This was fortunate because they re-released it years later in a more traditional cardboard slipcase at a much more reasonable price!)


However, at the time of the original release I was able to grab some of the promotional material; namely some cardboard counter-top cut-outs! There was Riker, seen left in all his Riker-ish glory!

Standing at about the height of a DVD, I saw their collect-ability immediately!

I also grabbed myself some Worf-omeness!

But the Pièce de résistance is this piece of utter.... um... aweso... no, can't say it.... 


LAMENESS!!!

I'm so glad the design department did their research, as did the person who did final sign-off!

Then again, maybe Tom "Maverick" Cruise was at the helm when this photo was taken...
