Wow! Just stunning.
I'm in love with that tricorder.
How did they manage to make it look even more retro in most details than even the TOS prop?!? Well done, SNW.

Count me in as another one loving that tricorder. (Also the TOS vibe makes me glare at The Wand Company's lack of news about their TOS tricorder replica even more but I suppose that's up to supply chain issues...and it's another thread, regardless).
The squares on the communicator are a bit odd but I'm not gonna quibble about that.

Screens are old tech. Comm badges never needed a screen.
Yeah, this show is knocking it out of the park with the props.
Now that I look at these close up, particularly the phaser's side-profile, I really like what they've done with these. I do prefer the DSC phaser over this one, but they're still quite nicely done. Wah Chang would approve, I think.
Now if Mcfarlaine Toys (or ANYONE for that matter) would make the damn props (and accurately) for commercial purchase!

Communicator and phaser look good, as always.
Tricorder looks cumbersome.
Likely Playmates now, but the phaser will be problematic if it goes through California.
And they look like they could have come right out of a 1960s props department.
Cool!
EDIT: The poster says T'Gai and TrekCore says T'Gain. I'll assume the poster is correct.
But by the 2250s that style will come back! It's all good. Update some things, play nostalgia at others.
Oh damn, they are beautiful. Absolutely perfect, I love them.
what a downgrade

Tricorder looks more like 50s.
It looks to me like a classic twenty third century design, complete with black finish and silver highlights.

hell, Amanda has a line in that episode of:
Amanda: "...And you haven't come to see us for 4 years..."
So...even canonically we have Spock going back to Vulcan on leave - and if TOS S2 - "Journey To Babel" takes place in 2267, it would mean Spock last visited Vulcan in 2263; perhaps just before or as Pike handed command of the 1701 to Kirk (because Spock NEVER takes shore leave) - meaning Kirk took command late 2263 or early 2264... (but yeah, pure extrapolation here)
