TWO boxed Palitoy transporters on Big Bang Theory

[The Toyroom]

Great episode!

[Mr Mego]

Very cool!! I missed that show earlier...... When that'll showing up again next time?

Here's a screen capture from the episode. Are the second issue EMCE Spocks this tan? My first issue one is kind of pale.

I am assuming this generated a spike in traffic to the Museum. Couldn't even get on earlier tonight.

Probably a good guess

And yes, those Palitoy boxes were prop repros as any 70's era boxes would not have the white board backing.

The show is always great but this episode is going down as one of my favorites, second only to Justice League Recombination maybe!

Agreed! And oddly enough, I watched the end of that very episode on TBS last night before watching "The Transporter Malfunction" that I had DVRed earlier!

Now here's the real question:

SPOILER ALERT









Did they break a real transporter for the show?

Fun episode. I did have to laugh that Penny found two mint in pristine box Transporters at one comic shop!

I'm sure the packaging was a repro, but I wonder if they fabricated the toys or actually found two. I hope the broken one was already broken!

I got the whole joke about toy nerds not wanting to open the package, but it's kind of ironic they chose that Transporter, there's no harm whatsoever in opening that box.

Scott you realize... that that is such a Classically Toy Nerdy thing for us to be talking about, yes?

That looks like an original Spock to me. That shirt is definitely original. You can even see the common peel of the silver foil on the insignia.
