When you’re dead and burnt to ash, wither thou goest? If you’ve spent the better part of your life as an incorrigible Star Trek fanboy, then these new urns from Eternal Image are a likely destination.
Okay, so it’s James Tiberius Kirk inscribed on the photographic evidence provided. But you actually customize these with your own obituary details (including an authentic stardate) plus a choice of “To Boldly Go…” or “The Journey Continues…” engraved at the bottom.
Each receptacle can accommodate 190 cubic inches of ash and if your remains exceed that, we’ll leave the space-saving ideas up to you.
Here’s a chunk of the promotional literature for further enticement:
“Each urn features a capacity of 190 cubic inches and is constructed from a composite blend of natural minerals, an etched stainless steel faceplate and name scroll, and an image of the Enterprise printed on anodized aluminum, with the Enterprise visible through a cutout of the franchise’s signature Delta logo. A personalized nameplate can be affixed above the graphic.”
Now for the bad news: one of these custom-made boxes retail for $800. If that makes you utter Klingon profanities, such is the price of everlasting afterlife.
