Thanks again to everyone who entered and voted in the last contest for "Mudd's Women." And of course, congratulations to the winners! ItsGreen & Gary7 It's time again for a new contest... Episode: What Are Little Girls Made Of? TOS Theme: Re-used Tech. Any device or technology that you've seen used in a couple of episodes, but with different purposes and origins. It might look exactly the same, or be slightly modified. A simple animated GIF showing two uses would probably help, but not required. Random Theme: Happy Holidays! Anything (winter) holiday related. TrekBBS rules apply; The maximum size of your custom image is 140x140 pixels and 70kb. This is (roughly) a bi-weekly contest so entries will be excepted from now till Friday Dec 24th (10 days), with the poll starting afterwards (after Christmas?) and lasting 4 days.
Episode: Theme: Random: Jingle Bells, Captain Kirk smells, Mr. Spock laid an egg, the Enterprise lost a nacelle and KHANNNNN got away, Hey!
The re-use of tech doesn't have to be exact, either. You can see how Nomad was partially reused for the Romulan cloaking device and Mr. Flint's robot. The Eminiar disruptors seen in Taste of Armageddon were cannibalized from Mr. Spock's tri-sensor device. The Tholian vessel was reused for the Aurora in The Way To Eden. Just to name a few more.
Doctor Crater in The Man Trap uses a laser pistol from The Cage. The same weapon is used by the androids in What Are Little Girls Made Of? see Gary7's episode entry upthread.
*clears throat* For those who might be interested, I'm runnin' the latest contest in the VOY forum - http://trekbbs.com/showthread.php?t=133968 You could win a Golden Neelix!!!
