Star Trek The Original Series, Star Trek TOS Medical Kit with Long Pouch
replica movie prop
Terrific kit by SD Studios:
Background - To ensure authenticity, we measured and photographed the surviving original props at a convention a few years ago.
The equipment (hypo, field reader tube and spray healer) was drawn in CAD and machined from 6061 aluminum and each part is hand-polished in a multi-step-process. The pouch is recreated in genuine, hand-stitched leather. We provided detailed blueprints and photos to the leather manufacturer and after numerous rounds of tweaks and corrections, these were finally perfected to what we have here! (We sold off the protos a long time ago). Every stitch and line is in the correct location. The equipment drops right into place and the pouch closes securely with velcro exactly like the original prop!
The hypo plunger works and it actually hisses when compressed (but not like the loud, dubbed sound effect in the show, obviously.) The aluminum hypo body has a polished brass tube press-fit inside and there is a rubber O-ring on the plunger that rides inside of that tube. The assembly is packed with DOW high-pressure lubricant. This all ensures absolutely smooth operation.
The hypo vials are made from machined polycarbonate tubing and the end-caps are custom-machined. They are pressure-fit, then chemically welded to the tube, and an extra bead of ACC glue is then applied to the exterior seam. (These AIN'T leaking!!) The whole assembly is then sanded and machine-re-polished back to crystal clarity. A steel disk is bonded to the bottom of each vial and the assembly attaches with a magnet in the hypo. It CLICKS! right into position.
The vial assembly is laborious, but perfectly matches the system used on the show props. This is NOT the goofy glass bottle with screw cap and velcro that people have used for decades. This is ACCURATE to the originals!!!
Included is a DStines hero Medical Scanner!
