NEW PRODUCT: Dilithium Crystals!

NEW PRODUCT: Dilithium Crystals!

These crystals make it easy to build your own Constitution-class, Galaxy-class or Sovereign-class starship. No more worrying about fussy matter/anti-matter reactions in the warp core — these crystals regulate the process for you, so you can concentrate on violating the Prime Directive.

We’ve been testing these in a private beta for a few months, and the response over subspace has been overwhelmingly positive. M. Scott writes:

Aye, these are fine crystals! Ye canna ask for better quality. I’ve tried other crystals, but they didn’a have enough power . I switched these in for the old ones, and now the captain thinks I’m a miracle worker!

  1. I’ll take twenty!

  2. I guess, it’s april fool prank discount code LAFORGE

  3. Lady Ada,
    I think this product is only sourced thought your sister “Inverse Universe” website at moc.tiurfada.www.

    I just checked they have plenty in stock. Just be careful as the polarity is backwards.

  4. Crap, now Digi-Key is showing warp plasma as OUT OF STOCK 🙁

  5. There should be an actual product page in the store for these, out of stock, expected to be available in 300-400 years.

  6. Could you please ask your private beta tester if *these* crystals can change the laws of physics?

  7. Logical, Captain!

  8. I’ve already got dilithium crystals, but I still need to find about 30 kg of antimatter. I’d prefer antihydrogen but could probably adapt my design to use other elements. Will you be stocking antimatter in your store soon?

  9. I hate when you guys announce a new product and when I go to the page it’s already sold out! 🙂
