Jason Hilbourne has customized a quintet of his Bunk Bot plushies to resemble the crew of the Star Trek Enterprise. And we'll be giving away (from left to right) the Spock, Scotty, Kirk, Bones and Uhura customs to five lucky readers. Each winner will receive one of the above customs as well as a regular Night Vision PINCH Bunk Bot.
We're asking you to answer the following questions in the comments section:
Star Trek or Star Wars? And why?
There's no right or wrong answers (the winners will be randomly chosen), but we just ask you to include your email address in the proper section. Contest is open to worldwide entries.
Contest runs through Monday April 20th at 11:59PM.
star wars – all cause of this line… Luke I am your father

Star Trek, because it's how my father raised me. TNG reruns were bonding time during my formative years. Funny enough, that's why I like zombies, too. Thanks, dad.

Star Wars, because of Darth Maul. He was the first (to my knowledge) depicted with a double-end light saber… and he's frikkin' black and red.
(It made me sad when he died)
And I'm female and am NOT a sci-fi nerd, but I have some weird inexplicable attraction to Darth Maul… If he were real, I'd give him my freakin' number!
Yes… yes. I am now plasticandplush's creepiest reader :
thank you for your time 🙂

Star Trek, if only because 'Deep Space Nine' sounds like the name of an x-rated film. Otherwise, I'm for Star Wars.

Star Trek — Because of the double face palm!
Seriously, Picard is badass.

Star Trek! I was brought up watching TOS and have since had a thing for snarky, unfeeling men and pointy ears.

Star Trek. Because Star Wars is mythology and Star Trek addressed the human condition through the medium of science fiction.
And because "Screw the Prime Directive: Let's Kill Something" is much more gratifying than "using the Force."

They both have great aspects!

Wars, Trek, Gate, and Search 🙂

Star Trek because its stars went on to illustrious singing careers!
Also, if I'm allowed to plug, we're doing a Bunk Bots contest: Batman vs. Nite Owl over at ToyCyte here too:

//STAR WARS//
– Because it has Darth Vader and it just sounds cooler than star trek. It's so hard to keep up with the star trek series, it's so boring, star wars has the awesome movies!

both because when you are in space you don't care about this question and you don't have the time to think about it (to much work i guess).

Star Trek
Because if it had been Kirk instead of Mace Windu, Palpatane would have been nothing more than a Phaser flash and a bad memory. 8D

I have to say Star Wars, but mainly the first 3. You have to love Yoda's wisdom.

Star Trek, because Gene Roddenberry formed the Star Trek universe around his ideals for what human society would become and how interaction with other lifeforms would forever change our species. Star Trek is about the evolution of humanity. Star Wars is an epic story, but George Lucas admits that it was based heavily on the Campbellian hero's journey, and basically tells an ancient human story in the setting of space. Star Wars implies that humans never truly will change. Though I respect that opinion (and the argument against it, which I am sure many Star Wars fans can provide), I'd have to choose Star Trek over Star Wars because of the derivation it attempts from the archetypal human story.
By the way, Bunk Bots rock! They'll be donating some plushies to a charity I am organizing with some friends here in Chicago, Bots 4 Tots (http://www.bots4tots.org). We think they are just the coolest!

This is actually very simple. Though I realize fans of both have solid platforms for debate – Star Trek fans extolling the virtues of 24th century technology and Star Wars fans touting the universal influence of the force, for instance – there is one element that sets one apart from the other on a scale of merit.
And her name is Vice Admiral Kathryn Janeway.
Not satisfied to enter into drawn our Star Trek moral debate or over-blasted Star Wars capital ship combat, Kathryn Janeway has a simple solution to any problem, no matter the complexity:
Point the ship at it and go. If possible, set the auto-destruct while doing so – if not, no biggie.
She is the wild card. She will see your Aluminum Falcon and raise you 700,000 metric tons black coffee fueled death wish.
You have a star destroyer? No issue, she has 2 tricobalt devices and she can deploy them while the ship is 4/5 of the way into your command console.
It's pretty hard to use the force inside of a warp field breach – and that breach is only a command code away.
Oh, and she has removed the need for a first officer to back her decision. She tore that part out of the ship.
Remove Janeway and I think you have a 50/50 shot in any SW -VS- ST:WTF match.
Fact: She has not been removed, and will not be removed until she blows up her ship and your emperor with it.
Bonus: She once spent an episode arguing with HERSELF as to which one of her got to blow up her ship.
Double bonus: She lied and blew her own ship up before she got a chance to.

While I really like both of them, I would have to say Star Trek. I grew up with Star Trek and we couldn't wait each week until it came on. And, of course, no one beats Captain Kirk for coolness. 🙂
