Happy New Year 2014

The holodeck doors open and the Trekkie Girls get kicked out, back to reality.

Happy New Year to all our followers. We have had a busy few weeks so wanted to give you a little update on our goings on.

We have resumed our weekly takeovers of the Destination Star Trek Germany Twitter and Facebook accounts every Wednesday at 8pm GMT / 9pm CET. On last nights takeover we were able to reveal the poll results for the Saturday night party theme for DSTG. Ladies of Star Trek won the fan vote and we had a great evening talking about some of Star Trek's leading ladies. This will be an interesting one to see develop but are looking forward to seeing what attendees choose to wear. Time … Continue Reading ››

Destination Star Trek Germany – Win party tickets!

As part of our takeover of Destination Star Trek Germany each wednesday, we have "obtained" two tickets to the Saturday night party. As they say on Risa, "What's ours, is yours" which is why we are giving them away like a psychologically unbalanced Ferengi to one lucky DSTG guest. 




To enter all you need to do is RT this Tweet:



There are some rules *groans*. You must already be attending Destination Star Trek Germany in Frankfurt and hold at least a Saturday entry ticket. These can be purchased here.

Can't see how Bloodwine is still legal!
On Wednesday 18th December 8pm GMT/9pm CET we will again takeover the Destination Star Trek Twitter and Facebook accounts.

But this time, using the skills of Ferengi taking over the Enterprise Section 31 spies, we have obtained two tickets to the Saturday night party at Destination Star Trek Germany in Frankfurt.  

As it is a time of celebration we want to give these away to one lucky winner! 
Join us on Twitter, Facebook and our blog tomorrow for a live chat and for more information on how you can win this prize.

Win a lunch with LeVar!

**Note: this contest is for US residents only**

Imagine you're having lunch with LeVar Burton, what do you talk about? Keep it sophisticated and talk about literacy? Or geek out and ask how he developed the Geordi barrel roll?
Think quickly because if you are a US resident and sign up for a free We Care account, you may find yourself in that situation.




We-Care.com is in partnership with the AIDS Research Alliance. When you sign up and shop through their website, a contribution is made towards AIDS research. To promote this worthy cause, LeVar Burton will have lunch with one lucky person who signs up. What a great guy! 

The contest is open until the 9th January. Good … Continue Reading ››

Top Trekkie Xmas Presents

What do you buy the Trekkie who has everything? We assume that most fans have the basics, the DVDs (in various formats and editions), the books, the T-Shirts - even the rubbish ones but its sacrilege to throw away anything that bears the word Star and Trek.


So we look to the great material continuum to provide. Here is what we have found:


Forget Diamonds, A VISOR is a girls best friend! Not sure whether the creator went out to design a ring that looked like Geordi's eye wear or if it was a happy accident but it is certainly unique!
We love this item but only buy this for your most dedicated Trekkie Girl or your love life might start to resemble Geordi's too.

Caption Contest Winner

We had a blast yesterday during our Destination Star Trek takeover. The theme was Data's Day and we learnt a lot from chatting to you. 
We heard lots of great stories about meeting Brent Spiner including Becca and Kay from Twitter who travelled all the way to Los Angeles from England to watch him perform live in a play.

Espa100 told us a funny story about how they couldn't understand each other because his English wasn't very good at the time so they communicated with hands and feet! (images of Data dancing with Dr Crusher come to mind!)
We also learned that most of you think Data swearing in Generations is more humorous than when Q gave Data the gift of laughter!

There were a lot of good suggestions for the caption contest but we picked … Continue Reading ››

Data’s Day


Tonight we are firing up the MIDAS array and preparing to take over the Destination Star Trek Germany Twitter and Facebook accounts again. Join us each Weds at 8pm GMT. 
Tonight we will be discussing all things Data and DSTG guest Brent Spiner. We would love to hear your experiences of meeting him so to start, we thought we'd start the discussion with this YouTube video. Contains immaturity and waffling! - you have been warned!

London Film and Comic Con 2014

Showmasters always seem to be looking out for us Trekkies and if you frequent their Forums you will have seen today's announcement that Terry Farrell and Diane Muldaur will be attending next years show!
 
We have only seen them both once and that was quite a while ago now, and in the States. 
Terry is as popular with us fans as Dax is with the entire Alpha Quadrant. Did you see those pics of her at Las Vegas con this year dressed in the TOS mini dress for the costumed world record attempt?  What a team player!
Diane Mulder Muldaur is best known for playing the controversial and fan dividing Doctor Pulaski but all us Trekkies love the trivia quiz where we get to identify her as Dr Miranda … Continue Reading ››

DSTG Takeover!

Remember last October when we Vulcan nerve pinched several security guards to give you a sneak peek of Destination Star Trek London? (At least, that's how we remember it!)

Well we can't wait until Feb '14 to get into Destination Star Trek Germany so we have masked our warp trail, set up transporter scattering devices and dry cleaned our lucky starfleet undies because we are taking over the official @StarTrek_DST twitter account!

Join us every Wednesday at 20:00 GMT (21:00 CET) where we will talk all things Star Trek and get excited about next Feb's event. 

This Wednesday 20th we will be talking about the guest line up. Who is going? Who do you want to see? Who are you most excited about meeting? 

Keep an eye out for … Continue Reading ››
