The reckoning artifact that held the pa wraiths in DS9 sold at a Christie’s auction for over $6000. I bid $600.

What if you’re both kinds of geek? Yeah, that’s me.

Yes, it does look like the DS9 Station.

Just out of curiosity, how is VOY better than TNG?

As a comment related to the image, I would acquire that statue, had I sufficient funds.

… you need thicker glassses maam?
Geez so what the captain was female? the thing was frickin packed with action!!! it never comes on anymore so i watch ENT. DS9 i’ve never seen before. Star trek just plain sucks. Next gen comes in a close second for just plain sucks award. then comes deep space 9, and then comes enterprise.

It may be the space station from DS9. Just watched a Star Trek Auction where the model sold for same price!

I’m thinking the artist made it after DS9, thinking that they could get away with it since nobody who still lives in their parents’ basement would be likely to see it, let alone afford it.

If you are referring to Seven of Nine, Tertiary Adjunct to Unimatrix Zero-One (A.K.A. Jeri Ryan), yeah – I’d hit that. Repeatedly!!

Because the captain is a woman? Then I guess DS9 is just for African Americans then. And TNG is for bald Englishmen. And TOS is for be-girdled hairpiece-wearing swingers.

Pedantic maybe?

It also looks like “la melono” (linky).

If I had $25 K to spare, I would rather seek to commission a highly detailed model of Deep Space Nine, instead of that fugly statue!

Data didn’t try to get a date in Data’s Day, he learned to dance for the O’Brien wedding. He had a girlfriend in In Theory though…

um… i specifically remember a character on voyager named 7 of Nine. *drool* if she was targetted for woman then those women liked other women.

By: TheObject

TheObject — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 04:09:09 +0000

You called out TNG. Everybody remembers the great episodes only. But Voy was just TNG targeted for women.

By: P.

For me:
DS9, VOG (close), TOS, ENT, TNG.

TNG turned into a soap opera… Worf’s kid is having trouble in school Oh noes!!!! And Data tries to get a date in Data’s Day!!!

The artist was probably watching DS9 at the time this was made, and they were chuckling the whole time at how sneaky they were being.

It would be silly to pay that much for a statue, when it doesn’t have life support systems, or artificial gravity. I don’t think it even has blinkie lights.

Statue fail.

Not a statue.

A statue depicts a person, animal or event.

It’s a sculpture.

Yes, I am an artist and art geek.

They have the same shape….sorta.
That’s all I can think of. They look nothing alike.

Is the statue called “Terok Nor”?

By: Blabby

Terok Nor! The Cisco! Er, the SISKO I meant!

Lucky 7th!

By: Mossad

Exactly? Really? New glasses maybe?
Statue has a supporting structure at the bottom. DS9 – middle
DS9 would sit on the extensions, while statue would sit on the supporting structure
The vertical arches on the statue extend beyond the ring…DS9 the ring is bigger then the vertical arches.

While it looks similar, it falls far of exact.

By: Sadie Thompson

Sadie Thompson — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 18:22:17 +0000

Um, pardon me but VOY is number 1.

And, to stay on topic, that statue looks EXACTLY like DS9. I’m thinking maybe it was on purpose.

DS9, still the third best after TNG and TOS.
(Though with better production values, I’ll give it that)

By: IvanTheMildlyAnnoying

IvanTheMildlyAnnoying — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 17:29:38 +0000

Well, maybe a little.
