The idea of a casket that looks like a photon torpedo casing just flashed through my mind.

 

[Valin]

^^^Will the price of the funeral include a trip to the Genesis planet and Mt.Seleya?

 

[ChristopherPike]

This is all well and good, but do you get a multi-picture directing deal with your next life?

 

[ElderTrek27]

Now that's a forward thinking business!
I've told the family for years I'd like to be laid out in a ST II style red jacket! Delta shield logo on the casket might be nice too.

The ABSOLUTE LAST Star Trek collectible you will EVER own.

 

[Trekker4747]

Wow. If they make a Torpedo casket I'm soooo going to buy one!

For the Star Trek fan who HAD everything! :thumbsup:

 

[M'Sharak]

See some of their other product lines.

Edit:

And their news release.

 

[Trekker4747]

Ok. The torpedo casing casket almost seems like a given, but what kind of Urn can we expect?

Here you go.

Well, that or a Saurian brandy bottle.


Janeway's coffee mug?

 

[Who_Trek]

Lol, that's great!!! The photon tube surfaced in my mind, too. Don't think I'd buy one (am sure of it, in fact, but great idea.

Odo's bucket?

 

[STIntergalactic]

Wow, now I know what I want to be buried in!

 

[Starbreaker]

Please, nobody let me be buried in a Precious Moments casket.

 

[ManOnTheWave]

For some reason, I'm picturing my remains in a torpedo, being lowered into a tube, and then launched out into the sky. Then after crashing into a hill, my corpse in a giant Tylenol capsule will settle atop a pile of other corpses in Tylenol capsules. My friends and family will shrug and say, "It's what he would have wanted."

I hate them already.

I wonder if you'll be able to request a registry number for the torpedo.
