Bat'leth
A 1:1 replica of the most choice Klingon battle weapon, crafted of aluminum and finished with real leather. Phasers? Earthling nonsense. Hand-to-hand blade combat to the death is what really makes a warrior. [$500](https://www.amazon.com/Roddenberry-Star-Klingon-Batleth-Replica/dp/B00MNV7CLY)
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZV626Z0/ref=cm_sw_su_dp" target="_blank">Quantum Mechanix/Amazon</a>
Tribble
These [tiny, hairy creatures](https://amzn.com/B00ZV626Z0) are totally adorable. Buy 50 of them, throw them on your bed, jump into their furriness, then curse their existence. Fun! $10 each.

DST Retro Cloth Figures
The vintage [8-inch action figures](http://www.megomuseum.com/startrek/captainkirk.html) from Mego are highly collectible, and Kirk and Spock go for about $50 each on eBay. But the plastic on these 40-year-old toys is disintegrating, so get yourself some modern-day redos from Diamond Select Toys. Pick from [any number of characters](http://www.diamondselecttoys.com/star-trek--retro-figures). $160 for two.

Gorn Action Figure
All of the ReAction figures are pretty cool, but we've got a soft spot for [Gorn](https://www.amazon.com/Star-Trek-ReAction-4-Inch-Action/dp/B00V989PTY). $19
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002I9Z6PU/ref=cm_sw_su_dp" target="_blank">Hot Wheels/Amazon</a>
Hot Wheels Klingon Bird of Prey
Never mind the little cars. Hot Wheels makes some pretty decent Trek stuff, and this [Klingon BOP](https://amzn.com/B002I9Z6PU) ($39) is a good example. The wings fold just like the real thing, but the cloaking device will cost you a whole lot extra.

Enterprise Bridge Playset
The ultimatest ultimate. This replica of the original Mego set from the '70s works with any figure built to the scale of the originals, as most of the current "retro" toys are. $60

Tri-D Chess Set
This recreation of the original Franklin Mint [Tri-D chess set](http://shop.startrek.com/star-trek-tridimensional-chess-set/detail.php?p=978294) from the 1990s will set you back $275. But that's real silver and gold on there. And whoo boy is this thing extra nerdy or what? How do you play it? Who cares!?

Kirk's Mug
This one's unofficial, but it's the closest thing out there to [Kirk's coffee mug](http://www.redbubble.com/people/normaniac77/works/22623183-for-tall-mugs-star-trek-beyond-starfleet-logo-as-seen-on-captain-kirks-mug?p=mug&style=tall) from *Star Trek Beyond*.
