Star Trek Com Badge w/sound

[bdaher]

Hi folks,
For 17 years now, there is a GREAT Trek store in Columbus, Ohio (Starbase Columbus) and at least 12 years ago I bought a ST:NG com badge there which when you pushed it, made "the sound." The Starbase Columbus commander said they no longer make those. Does anyone know where I can find one? Amazon didn't have any, ebay doesn't list any. Does anyone know where I might find one?

Thanks!

Actually I found one on ebay and I'm bidding on it but dang, don't you think these things would be more popular???

I've had the hardest time getting one. I found one on ebay a few weeks back that made the sound when you pushed it AND opened up to reveal TNG style circuitry! It was still a 1:1 size ratio too. TWO DAYS I was the highest bidder, and then someone bid-sniped me at 4 seconds left...

First you want to buy one, then you want to wear it.. then you want to wear it in public.

This is a slippery slope.

Oh, I have a Voyager style badge(no sound though), and I've worn it in public... well... it was under my sweatshirt... but it was still in public...

Kind of unrelated, but have you seen those com badge walkie-talkies, lol. They are like 5 times the size of a regular com badge. You have to love 1992 technology.

Do you mean the metal Star Trek TNG Communicator with the magnetic plastic sound board that goes on in the inside of your shirt that makes the noise?

I got one.

Well.... I had one. I think I still have it, but it's back at my father's place with all my other stored away Star Trek collectibles. I got it back when they first came out (thus an original)

Gee.... pretty hard to find a picture of it online.... it's been a while since those were in circulation.
