Communicator offered with Star Trek Online Collector's Edition

Are you the kind of person who goes around all day wearing a Star Trek uniform? We kind of hope not. But if you've ever secretly wanted to be able to do that with a legitimate excuse... well, we can't totally help you there, but you can at least have an opportunity to wear the badge for a bit. Shacknewshas reported that the collector's edition of Star Trek Online from many retailers, including GameStop, will include a high-quality die-cast replica of the MMO's ubiquitous communicator badge.

For the few of you not familiar with the series, the insignia and communicator is a constant feature of the shows and films. Star Trek Online is sporting a new badge design, similar to the badge in the original series but with a slightly off-center bottom indent. Those of you not immediately familiar with the series, aside from being fortunate, can simply be amused at the prospect of having a rather unique souvenir for the upgraded purchase. The game launches on February 12th, 2010, so now is the time to decide if you'd like to be able to wear the badge.
