7 Weird Bits Of Star Trek Merchandise

Car horns to coffins for the dedicated fan buyer…

May 7th 2009 By James White

Classic Series Theme car horn

What is it? Exactly as promised – it’s a car horn that blares the original Trek theme, as composed by Alexander Courage.

Who probably didn’t foresee that it would get used to tell off lane-jumpers when he was writing it.

Why is it weird? Even if you’re the sort of fan who wants to make your car look and sound like the Enterprise, this isn’t the way to go.

Plus, from the sound sample found here, it sounds like pure audio horror. Just don't honk it over and over until your ears bleed and you crash your car on purpose to make it stop.

Where you can get it: Amazon is the place to find this for the surely-only-dedicated-Trekkers price of $73.

And your motoring dignity.

  Whats with the number 1701? Is it the space-boats number or something?
