Wait there is a Voyager episode with aliens in Nazi uniforms as well as the Enterprise one? I missed that one when I was going through Voyager. Or I watched it and forgot about it. The Enterprise one was a lot of fun, it had Bobby Baccala from the Sopranos.

The entirety of Voyager turned into a World War II warzone with Klingsons and Nazi's fight one another.

The best intro episode is A Piece of the Action, and the best "you only get one shot to cut to the soul of Star Trek" episode is Devil in the Dark.

Someone send help, I want to watch the nazi Voyager episode. Will I regret interrupting my TNG re-watch for this?

I did a nerdthing and bought a nerdthing. It's one of the QMx prop-quality ones sold by Anovos. Sure it's just a hunk of metal and some magnets but I actually kinda like it

I said come in! posted:HELLO THANK YOU FOR MENTIONING THIS BECAUSE I NEED IT https://www.anovos.com/collections/star-trek-reservation-pre-order/products/star-trek-ds9-and-voyager-communicator-badge-replica You might get lucky and get one from the last production round on Amazon or eBay, that's how I got mine. I'm eyeing a TNG one too. I always thought it'd be kindof a dumb waste of money but idk man, for some reason this thing just makes me happy, even if I only have it sitting on my bookshelf. And maybe occasionally putting it on while drunk and smiling at myself in the mirror, that might have something to do with it. The magnet seems quite strong and it's heavy enough to make you feel like this thing is worth the cash, while also being light enough to not drag down your clothes at all. Would recommend.

It was so heavy it pulled down (and outwards) the fabric of whatever it was pinned to, including this rather nice TNG uniform top I had.

They kind of come off as "these are your effects?" No, they're supposed to look cheap and cheesy, that's Autons. And then 2005 busts out with the CG Nestene Consciousness and there's no saving it.

I've been thinking of getting the Voyager one too, to replace the one I got from the Vegas Star Trek Experience that's seen better days. Qmx has them for sale on their site still at least. They also have Discovery ones, JJTrek, and the Discovery Enterprise badges. Hopefully they'll make some for the Picard badges too.

This is both a good post and a good distinction to make. I would be very tempted to replace Devil in the Dark with Arena. (Was there a Gorn commemorative plate?)
