Rating: Summary: Every essential sticker for a Star Trek fan! Review: Every essential sticker for a true Star Trek fan. My office computers and cabinets have already been assimilated! One complaint: only one Enterprise E sticker? Lots of great design history on each of the symbols, and everything is authentic. Where was this book ten years ago when I was a kid watching The Next Generation?
Rating: Summary: Stick me up, Scotty! Review: I don't know if anyone else remembers the first Star Trek sticker book published immediately after "Star Trek: The Motion Picture." It featured images and graphics from that first film, and I drooled when I saw it in the store. Never got it. Now it probably sells on eBay for over a hundred bucks. Well, just like Spock and the Defiant, this book has a second life in this all-new edition. This excellent collection of well-designed stickers is a lot of fun for any Trek fan with insignia, ships, labels, symbols, signs, and more ranging from Kirk's command badge to the "Deep Space Niners" baseball team logo. Borg ships, antimatter warning labels, communicators, IDICs, the Delta Flyer, Ferengi symbols...they're all here, images from all four series and most of the movies. A unique bonus is the 'official history' and 'behind the scenes' info by Star Trek designers Michael and Denise Okuda that extensively annotates each image. This section alone means that you'll want to keep this book long after you've peeled off and used all the stickers. It's a great gift for the Star Trek fan in your life and huge fun for kids...I keep a copy in my work office and pass out stickers to visiting kids. My only complaint, and it's a minor one: my favorite stickers are the 'Enterprise-D' Starfleet Panel Labels (in section five of the book). These are great for sticking on your computer and other electronic equipment...I would have liked to see more than one page of them! How else would my co-workers know that my Mac must remain online unless disconnect is authorized by the bridge's ops officer?

Rating: Summary: Brief, and useful. Review: I've never imagined there would be a book like this. The book collected all symbols and insignia from the Star Trek universe. I intend to construct a WWW site for Star Trek recently, and I found this book useful. I scanned many ships and symbols from it, and put them on my website. (Despite that may illegal...) The print quality is quite fine, just slightly worse than Encyclopedia. Thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Okuda.
Rating: Summary: Some Excellent stickers some poor Review: Not a bad idea, and an easy way to generate your own trek memorabilia. The quality of some of the sticker images is pretty poor, but for a cheap way to tart up your favourite things in a starfleet fashion, it's pretty good value
