While this new PADD replica won’t run cool apps and give you driving directions to the nearest starbase, the Star Trek PADD prop replica may still impress (some of) your friends. It’s based on the large PADD device seen in many of the Star Trek: The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine television episodes. The resin replica is hand-finished and produced by the same makers of many of the props used on the series. The $120 piece is available for pre-order from Entertainment Earth and is expected to ship in June.
Available for pre-order from Entertainment Earth. Retail price $119.99.
