I hate that I missed out on this discussion with Erin and Sarah. It was recorded before I joined the podcast. Like you, I thoroughly enjoyed listening to their discussion and my own trip down memory lane. Because I was on the intro of the podcast but not in the recording, I wanted to share my experience with this. Like them, I bought a lot of Star Trek memorabilia in the 90s and early 2000s.The vast majority of what I have is kept in storage at my Mom’s house in Tennessee and I actually went through it back in the end of December! I have the movie posters for “Star Trek: Generations”, “Star Trek: First Contact”, and “Star Trek: Insurrection” that I was given to me from a local movie rental store that my family frequented a lot back then. I also have signed photos from Roxann Dawson, Marina Sirtis, and Robert Duncan McNeill. I collected only a couple of the “ST:TNG” action figures from “First Contact”. Funnily enough, I have a Dr. Beverly Crusher action figure from that movie in the original packaging that I never opened that has a dry, red, peanut skin inside the packaging. I’ve looked as much as possible and it’s not flaked off paint. I have all of the collectible 10 inch dolls from “Star Trek: First Contact” in their original packaging. I also have the Captains plate and Doctors plate from the 30th anniversary “Star Trek” Hamilton plates. I have a third one but I don’t remember which one. Ha!I did have a couple of the tribble toys that now have dead batteries sown inside them, a TNG communicator replica pin, and a small TNG phaser keychain. My mom recently discovered an unopened Enterprise-D model kit. I also had the ST trading cards that I threw away in my apartment purge years ago, a couple of the Script books, ST Encyclopedia, ST Magazines, ST Trivia books, and a TON of the ST: TNG novels. I do wish that I still had all of the ST novels that once owned. I only have a handful of them now. I’d love to reread them. One REALLY good book that I bought back in 2015 was Leonard Nimoy
