On stardate 4523.3, Captain James T. Kirk and his crew are called to Deep Space Station K7 by a priority-one distress call. The station is near Sherman's Planet, a world in a sector of space disputed between the Federation and the Klingon Empire. Under the terms of the Organian Peace Treaty, Sherman's Planet would be awarded to whichever side demonstrates that it can manage it more efficiently.

Kirk is furious when he later realizes the distress call was unwarranted, and the undersecretary in charge of agriculture in the sector, Nilz Baris, simply wants someone to guard the shipments of quadrotriticale, a four-lobed wheat-rye hybrid grain, bound for Sherman's Planet. To Baris's annoyance, Kirk assigns two token guards to the task shortly before learning that Starfleet Command endorses Baris's concerns. A Klingon ship soon arrives at the space station and requests that its crew be granted shore leave, as entitled under the treaty. Kirk tells the Klingon captain Koloth that he may only bring members of his crew down 12 at a time, and that he will provide one security guard for each Klingon who beams down.

Meanwhile, an independent trader, Cyrano Jones, brings some little furry animals called tribbles onto the station to sell; he gives one to Uhura as a marketing ploy. She brings it on board the Enterprise, where it and its offspring are treated as adorable pets. The animals purr a relaxing trill that the crew (even the stoic Mr. Spock) find soothing. Klingons, however, find tribbles very annoying, and the feeling is mutual: tribbles emit an ear-piercing shriek of aggression, and jump, whenever they are near Klingons. (It has subsequently been explained that tribbles have a keen sense of smell and find food by scent, that they find the smell of Klingons offensive, and that Klingons, who are likewise spoken of as having a keen sense of smell, find the "stench" of tribbles repulsive.)

The "trouble" with the tribbles is that they reproduce far too quickly and are capable of eating a planet barren if their breeding is not controlled; in the words of Dr. McCoy, "they are born pregnant" and threaten to consume all the onboard supplies. The problem is aggravated when it is discovered that the creatures are entering essential ship systems, interfering with their functions and consuming any edible contents present. Kirk realizes that if the tribbles are getting into the Enterprise's stores, then they are a direct threat to the grain stores aboard the station. However, upon examining the holds, Kirk learns that it is already too late; the tribbles have indeed eaten the grain—a fact he learns the hard way, by being buried to more than half his own height in tribbles when he opens a hold with an overhead hatch. It appears the mission has ended in a fiasco. On top of that, Koloth wants a formal apology from Kirk, since some of the Enterprise crew members have started, though not without provocation, a western-style brawl with the Klingon crew in the station's bar.

Spock and McCoy, however, soon discover that around half the tribbles in the hold are dead and many of the rest are dying, alerting the Federation that the grain has been poisoned. Furthermore, the tribbles also give away the identity of a surgically altered Klingon agent responsible. The saboteur is the only "human" the tribbles do not like: Arne Darvin, Baris's own assistant. He had infected the grain with a virus that becomes an inert material in an organism's bloodstream; the more that is eaten, the more inert matter builds up, till the organism cannot take in enough nourishment to survive and essentially starves to death. Upon a medical scan by Dr. McCoy, it is revealed that Darvin is indeed a Klingon in disguise. Thus the tribbles redeem themselves and enable the Federation to score a diplomatic victory against the Klingons. As for Cyrano Jones, who introduced the species to the station, he is ordered to remove the tribbles from the station (a clean-up task that Spock estimates will take 17.9 years) or be imprisoned for 20 years for transporting a dangerous life form off its native planet.

Just before the Klingon departure, all tribbles that were on the Enterprise are somehow beamed onto the Klingon ship by Scotty as a retaliation for the troubles the Klingons have caused, where, in his words, "they'll be no tribble at all."

Shaun of the Dead 12-Inch Talking Action Figure Description:

"How's that for a slice of fried gold?"



Shaun speaks key phrases from the movie.

Stop the zombie uprising and have some flesh-eating fun! Relive the adventure with this 12-inch tall Shaun of the Dead Talking Figure. Shaun really gets the deluxe treatment in this 1:6 scale. He comes with his cricket bat and base, an interchangeable left hand with a flower bouquet, and speaks key phrases from the movie. So, c'mon. Have some good old-fashioned, flesh-eating fun! "How's that for a slice of fried gold?" Shaun also voices the following:

"We need to be somewhere more secure, somewhere on the ground, somewhere we can stay alive."

"If you get cornered, bash them in the head. That seems to work."

"I don't think I've got it in me to shoot my flatmate, my mum, and my girlfriend all in the same evening."

Shaun (Simon Pegg) is an appliance salesman whose life is without direction; his girlfriend Liz (Kate Ashfield) is dissatisfied with their social life, primarily because it consists only of evenings in The Winchester, Shaun's favourite pub. He has issues with his stepfather Phillip (Bill Nighy), his increasingly unhappy flatmate Pete (Peter Serafinowicz), and a dissatisfying job where his younger co-workers show him no respect. Following a broken promise to do something special for their anniversary, Liz dumps Shaun. He decides to drown his sorrows at the pub with Ed (Nick Frost), his best friend. After a night of drinking, he has an epiphany and resolves to sort his life out.

This revelation comes at the same time as an uprising of the undead within London, who begin to attack and devour the living, not that the hungover Shaun notices initially. Shaun finally realises the what's happing only after two zombies attack him in his back garden. As he finds out Pete has also become a zombie (he was "mugged" by some the previous day), Shaun and Ed plan to leave the house. They proceed to rescue Liz, along with Shaun's mother Barbara (Penelope Wilton) and Phillip, who had been bitten earlier, and wait the crisis out in the Winchester. Liz's friends, David (Dylan Moran) and Dianne (Lucy Davis), also come along.

During their journey, Phillip is mortally wounded but manages to make his peace with Shaun before turning into a zombie, forcing the group to abandon him and their car and go the rest of the way on foot. The remaining group find the Winchester surrounded by zombies, and they approach the pub by impersonating zombie behaviour, but they are discovered after the zombies hear them talking and arguing. Shaun draws the dead away while the others barricade themselves inside. Shaun returns to the pub thinking that he "gave the zombies the slip," but the zombies followed him, and soon break in. Shaun is forced to shoot his mother, who was bitten on the way to the Winchester; David is pulled through a smashed window, torn apart and eaten; Dianne charges outside in a futile attempt to save David, exposing the others to the zombies. Ed attempts to prepare a Molotov cocktail, but is bitten by the zombified Pete, who is shot in the head by Shaun. Escaping into the cellar, Ed decides to stay behind while Shaun and Liz escape through the barrel lift. Shaun and Liz, who have reconciled over the course of the day, prepare for one last battle against the zombie horde, but are saved by the British Army and others, including Shaun's acquaintance Yvonne.

Six months after the zombie outbreak, society has returned to normal, and the remaining zombies have now become a part of everyday life, being used as cheap labour and game show participants. Shaun and Liz move in together, along with zombified Ed, who is kept in the garden shed, leashed and playing TimeSplitters 2.

Caesar Action Figure from Conquest of the Planet of the Apes [Toy]

Product Features

Authentic Caesar likeness, over 30 points of articulation, detailed ape outfit including green jumpsuit and boots, M-16 rifle, large meat cleaver, small sized meat cleavers



12" figure display base featuring the Conquest for the Planet of the Apes logo

Artist: Mat Falls

Product Description

Cornelius and Zira travel back in time to Los Angeles in the 1970's, escaping in Taylor's spaceship, and set in motion the events that lead to the rise of the ape society. In the near future, apes replace dogs and cats as common household pets, and worse, they become slaves. Only Caesar, Cornelius and Zira's son, has the intelligence to lead an ape revolt against their human captors.

History:

"Conquest of the Planet of the Apes" (1972), directed by J. Lee Thompson, was the fourth film of the Planet of the Apes series. It explores mankind's future history, as established in Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971), and is the most violently exciting sequel in the series. Conquest of the Planet of the Apes is the rise of the ape civilization en route to their dominating planet Earth. It is also the most controversial entry because of its film noir cinema style, brutal violence, and clumsily re-shot "positive" ending.

Building upon the description given by Cornelius and Zira before the Presidential Committee in the previous film, Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971), a disease killed the world's cats and dogs, leaving humans with no pet animals. To replace them, humans began keeping monkeys and apes as household pets. In time, humans noticed the apes' capacity to learn and adapt; thus they taught them to perform menial household tasks. Moreover, by 1991, the United States of America has collapsed and devolved to autonomous city-states whose society is oppressive and fascist in culture, of uniformed classes and castes, based upon ape slave labour.

Caesar leads an ape revolt against man-kind. The apes are victorious after killing most of the riot police sent to kill them. After burning into Gov. Breck's (leader of the Human forces) command post and killing most of the personnel, Caesar has Breck marched out to be executed. MacDonald appeals to Caesar's humanity to show mercy to his former persecutor. Caesar ignores him, and in a rage declares: "Where there is fire, there is smoke. And in that smoke, from this day forward, my people will crouch, and conspire, and plot, and plan for the inevitable day of Man's downfall - the day when he finally and self-destructively turns his weapons against his own kind. The day of the writing in the sky, when your cities lie buried under radioactive rubble! When the sea is a dead sea, and the land is a wasteland out of which I will lead my people from their captivity! And we will build our own cities, in which there will be no place for humans except to serve our ends! And we shall found our own armies, our own religion, our own dynasty! And that day is upon you NOW!"

About Zira in "Planet of the Apes":

The film would center around George Taylor (Heston) an astronaut who had given up on mankind and traveled the stars to find out just what else the universe had to offer. He and his crew of three, one woman and two other men, traveled to the deepest reaches of space in suspended animation. Something would go terribly wrong with their spacecraft and it would crash-land off course on some unknown world. The three men would survive. The woman died in her sleep a year or so prior to the crash. The three survivors would march across a hostile desert before reaching a plush oasis with food and running water. A relaxing dip in the pond would lead to the group loosing their clothes and their first meeting with a group of primitive humans. Was this the best this planet had to offer?

A moments peace would be short lived. The humans would seem to be the hunted on this new world. As scared tribesmen would run in every direction the astronauts would get their first look at the dominant species. Apes! A desperate chase would ensue. One astronaut would be killed. Another netted. Taylor would end up shot in the throat and knocked out.

He would awaken days later in a cage in some sort of animal hospital. He would be under the care of a kind chimpanzee doctor named Zira (Kim Hunter). Zira had a kind heart toward the humans she worked with. She believed humans could be civilized. A notion laughed at by her fellow doctors. She saw something in Taylor.

Taylor would try to communicate with Zira, but his throat injury would prevent him from speaking. This would have gotten him attention because no other humans could speak. Taylor would be presented with a young woman, Nova (Linda Harrison), for a mate. He would connect with her although she was a primitive. Zira would end up naming Taylor "Bright Eyes" because of his advanced skills and blue eyes. She would show him off to both her fiance Cornelius and her supervisor Dr. Zaius. Both would scoff at her notion that he was different than other humans. Yet Dr. Zaius would recognize the dangers in a advanced human. He would soon plot Taylor's demise. Soon Taylor would steal Zira's notepad and write his name. She then understood that he could communicate and that he would be in danger. (Read More)

No TV series that lasted only one season can boast a bigger fan base than Battlestar Galactica. The series that Newsweek Magazine dubbed "Son of Star Wars" still, 25 years later, hosts hoards of loyal die hard fans. What is the appeal for the series so many years after it left the airwaves in 1979? A series so popular that it was revived this year by the Sci Fi Channel as a new mini-series. This fleet on the run story based loosely on Mormonism may actually be more popular today then it was then. As a fan of the show from it's original airing I can tell you that the series left a lasting effect. I can still remember being that eleven year old boy that tuned in every Sunday night with joy for a new episode of Galactica. Star Wars had come to TV. Or at least the next best thing. Remember there were no DVD's or VCR in the late 1970's. Galactica was intentionally designed to capture the momentum of the hugely popular George Lucas epic. It did the trick. The show was a huge hit with my generation. But this show was no clone. The series itself stood on its own. Great special effects, good acting, and stories that sparked imagination made the show unique for it's time. What did in Galactica? Simple. Money. Each episode was heavy on the special effects side. Each episode ran around the million dollar mark to produce. Today that may not be much but back then it was unheard of. No amount of ratings could equal the cost. The show was popular, but not that popular. Yet despite this the fans have stayed loyal to the show throughout the decades. (Read More)

Godzilla 8 inches tall!
Orga 8 inches tall!

Godzilla 2000 would mark not only the rebirth of the famed movie series but also be the first Godzilla film to reach US shores in sixteen years. The last was Godzilla 1984 in, yes you guessed right, 1984. The new series would spawn not only a new direction for Gozilla, but a new look as well. 2000 would feature a Godzilla film that more resembled a Hollywood effort than any other of the films that came before it. It would seem that Toho had payed particular attention to the American Godzilla film made in 1998. (I hate to call that film Godzilla...sorry) A little bit of that film can bee seen in 2000. Also a little bit of Jurassic Park as well. I wouldn't venture a guess why this was done unless it was to make a statement on how monster movies, kaiju mainly, should be done. The special effects are far above the prior series. Though some inconsistent effects are quite noticeable towards the later part of the film. This would be the first Godzilla to use a large amount of CGI. Godzilla would not be computer generated, but the traditional "man in the suite". The storyline and acting as well would take a step forward in Millennium. Takehiro Murata (Yuji) Naomi Nishida (Yuki), and Mayu Suzuki (Io) would all stand out. Once again all a step forward from past efforts. (Read More)

Macross / Robotech - Revoltech #051 Super Poseable Action Figure Regult

Source: Amazon.com

Product Description

Import from Japan Revoltech: 051 Yamaguchi Regult Action Figure



In 1984 the animated television series MACROSS had reached new heights in popularity in Japan. Never before had an animated series struck such a chord with the Japanese public. Certainly shows such as Astro Boy, Kimba, Gigantor, Mazinger and Gundam were popular entities among the younger population, but MACROSS had transcended all age groups, classes and genders like no anime before it. Songs from the show, sung by Mari Iijima (as Lynn Minmay), were climbing the charts one after another. In fact, Lynn Minmay (despite the fact that she was a fictional character) had become as popular a pop star in Japan as Madonna had become in America. The time was right for the shows directors, Noboro Ishiguro and Shoji Kawamori, to begin work on a big screen adaptation of the MACROSS story. A theatrical release would allow for higher production values, cleaner animation and a more adult oriented storyline. The biggest challenge for the two directors would be to condense the series’ numerous episodes and complicated plot down to a serviceable 114 minutes. Ishiguro and Kawamori knew this would not be easy, but both were up to the challenge. The movie would feature all of the elements that made MACROSS a hit, transforming mecha, unique spaceship designs, and a strong character driven story. THE SUPER DIMENSION FORTRESS MACROSS: DO YOU REMEMBER LOVE? opened in theatres throughout Japan on July 21, 1984 and became an instant box office hit. (Read More)
