Roger Manley is out, people were leaving anyways. The TPZ is Dead! All the prop builders are over at The RPF building not bossing people around! Roger is selling his props because he was a wannabee fan. Come to the RPF and see the difference.

Yesterday, Roger finally gave up ownership of the Trek Prop Zone. The former OWNER said it was because of "The Dark Side of the Hobby." People knew all along that the force wasn't with this guy. Roger had his first REAL taste of Star Trek in 1996. He lied for years that he was the sole champion of Star Trek since the beginning. He NEVER made a prop; He was just a fat man with a big ego.

He banned those who bent his crappy rules then broke them himself by listing personal names and in the case of M. Tessier, his complete details. Roger is a Star Trek wannabe who only collected Star Trek props. He made friends and enemies in the prop community. He allowed trash talk of other prop builders. The Trek Prop Zone started to become stagnant. Members got turned off of Star Trek because of it. Builders like me frequented the Replica Prop Forum. The RPF has more Star Trek builders than the TPZ. Now that Roger is gone, it is good news for the hobby.

Roger, this is ALL you ever did!

Star Trek 30: One Weekend On Earth was held 7 September 1996 – 8 September 1996 in Huntsville, Alabama at the US Space and Rocket Center and NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center. The event was attended by each of the casts and crews, including the entire cast of the original Star Trek series – the last time they all appeared on stage together. This convention was also the last such event Star Trek's licensing arm directly produced.

One of the Hosts present was Mr. Roger Manley, NASA Engineer who lives in the Huntsville Area. Mr. Manley also was in charge of Security for the Guests, which included, Deforest Kelly, (Dr, Bones McCoy) Nichelle Nichols (Communications Officer) Walter Koenig (Ensign Chekov) James Doohan (Engineer Scotty) and George Takei (Helmsman Sulu) all cast members from the Original Series from the 60's TV Show. Both William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy (Capt. Kirk and Mr. Spock) were not in audience until shortly before the beginning of the festivities. Absent was Mr. Gene Roddenberry, creator of the Series; he had passed away in 1991.

Roger Ramjet has tossed rocks since he's been in the hobby! People go to TPZ to get props from DStines/ToddM otherwise ASAP or RPF is used. Now that Roger's image is out, the Wal-Mart shopper has posted more. Fat-so was always regarded as a wannabe cry baby from the beginning. The hobby is good but tubs who do nothing are always around.

So loud mouth Roger admits M.Tessier is not the poster of ALL the complaints. M.Tessier is now back posting on trek prop zone. DUHH, there is no way to know who posts what. If I were him I would never go back there again after this. Who's next in line to speak out and be booted? Roger is now the sole owner/god. Hey Floyd the Barber, look who is the idiot NOW!

Sad Time for The Hobby... Everyone Please Read...

It is sad that some member or members feel the need to create situations that neither benefit themselves or the Hobby in general, but that seems to be the case with regards to all of those nasty Complaint and Ripoff Threads that have circulating around the internet as of late.

Lot's of people (Including Myself I'm ashamed to say) were tossing rocks and drawing conclusions based on the manipulation and misconceptions being tossed around by the actual persons who created them in the first place.

I know for a fact at this date, Mr. Tessier was NOT the responsible party for these postings (Not a Single One I might add) but in fact a member right here under our noses. I deeply regret that we all fell victim to this scam and as I said, feel embarrassed by how easily all of us and I were to point fingers and make accusations. I personally feel that we ALL owe him a heartfelt apology.

The member in question (Who's name is unimportant) has been sanctioned and banned from the board.

I ask that there be no further postings regarding this subject, enough damage has been done to innocent parties already. Hopefully we can all learn from this and try and be a bit more perceptive if a situation like this reoccurs.

I recall a day not too long ago when I treasured this hobby and could not wait to log in and join in the camaraderie with my fellow hobbyists, and now with having to deal with situations like this one, the truth be told, I cannot recall the last time I honestly felt that in my heart.

Floyd The Barber is a chronic liar. Accuprop not Accuprops is a professional forum run by licensed Star Trek prop maker John Long. http://www.saucersoverhollywood.com/
The forum is a venue to sell his licensed products. There are no unlicensed items sold there. Floyd the Barber has no knowledge of what license John Long possesses. His posts have to be closely scrutinized. He has posted derogatory nonsense using his evident plural error "Accuprops" here:

Just so that anyone reading the rebuttal above won't be confused... it was posted by Mr. /removed/ posing as Thortheking. He seeks to obfuscate his identity while trying to cause problems for the very people he's ripped off and threatened. Mr. /removed/ apparently feels guilty about the number of people he's hurt over the years. His attempt to deflect the attention is quite transparent.

He also displays the height of hypocrisy by claiming that the forum he's a member of, Accuprops, deals ONLY with licensed props. This is far from the truth and many of the members on the Accuprops forum are also in the list of people he's claimed are infringing on Paramount/CBS's rights.

What he fails to comment on is that he has purchased and has in his collection, hundreds of unlicensed prop replicas. He's more than happy to be a part of a group that deals with infringing items as long as he is able to get some of them. Once he's burned a bridge he turns to threats.

Accuprops
http://accuprop.yuku.com/
Owner: John Long

Accuprops' ONLY claim to legitimacy is that the owner has two (2) and only two licenses with CBS for the construction of a Star Trek Phaser and a Star Trek Communicator kit. These constitute less than 1% of what is discussed, displayed, traded and sold on Mr. Long's board and in no way legitimize the remainder of illicit activities that occur on the board.

Mr. /removed/ infantile attempt to seek revenge will only bring negative attention to his one last refuge within the Trek prop replica community. His sycophantic obsession with Mr. Long and his creations has led him to believe that he's under some form of protection from legal action... it won't.

Please do contact the following individual:

Mallory D. Levitt
CBS Corporation
CBS LAW
51 West 52 Street
New York, New York [protected]
Tel: [protected] Fax: [protected]

I have done so and spoke with Mrs. Levitt's assistant who claims that she's received many calls she feels were made by an obsessed fan (Mr. /removed/) and when I spoke of his motivation being revenge her assistant said that it was quite clear.

Believe what you will about Mr. /removed/ but before you conduct any business with him you would do well to know the facts in this matter. He has threatened individuals, he has ripped people off for money, he has made false claims and he has brought more unwanted attention to the hobby he claims he loves in the process he is also hurting the few remaining supporters he has. He's a destructive individual who will, in the end, suffer the same as those he seeks to condemn.

Hey Steve, I got a response from CBS about the email I sent about you buying up those bootleg parts on ASAP, they said they appreciated me bringing this to their attention and they would send it over to Legal.

Let's see how it feels to have the shoe on the other foot ###.

A review of Floyd The Barber posts. Thanks for showing the prop community what kind of lowlifes populate The Trek Prop Zone.

Me, call me who you want, I just wanna show that Roger Manley is just a FAT Bully! The Trek Prop Zone — Fraud

Somehow I ended up on this page and I read it. First Star Trek is about stupid. Next, if I read this correctly, this person complaining joined a message board about Star Trek toys and says he was buying from people that steal and then is mad that he didn't get his stuff? Yeah my brother has the same problem with his drug dealer.

Those board rules look AWESOME. Sounds like a very well run on line prop forum. Makes me want to go and sign up right now. Thanks for the pointing these out ExtraExtraExtra-Large Briefs. I'm headed over to become a member right now.

All these bogus complaint threads simply look like good publicity for this website to me, I'm sure the people who run it appreciate all of the free press being generated. The person posting this stuff does not realize what a buffoon and an ### he is making out of himself. Funny stuff.

The guy who created the TPZ is GOD!

The gig is up Steve Tessier, we know who you are. This guy opens these BOGUS Complaint Topics, and then he posts answering himself. It appears he has absolutely NO LIFE and more than likely as not lives in his PARENTS BASEMENT watching PORN 23 hours a day MASTURBATING and then the other hour posting these BS Complaint topics.

I hear they are trying to get your ### banned from ASAP now, pretty soon you will be homeless [censored].

I see here you are buying bootleg parts off the prop boards, what would Paramount and CBS think about this Steve? (Gives the members details) I think I will report you right now.

I have sent an email to the folks you named at Paramount about your illegal buying activities and I also included a link to these BS Topics you are posting everywhere. I intend on making your life a living hell Steve, I'll show you 2 can play this game.

BTW, I am not a member of the Star Trek Prop Zone. I am just a guy in the hobby that thinks you are a menace and needs your FAT mouth closed for good.

Steve you must enjoy posting and then answering yourself? You are a trip. Why don't you try mending fences rather than burning them? You know you are an outsider with Trek Hobbyists. I think at one time you were an asset to the World of Trek, but as of late you have became a laughing stock and a menace. Not to late to ask for forgiveness.

That is a good example of the The Trek Prop Zone, Roger is God!

Are you sure about that one?

Roger was never efficient or even necessary on TPZ.

The TPZ are the builders. Without them you got old woman and gossip! Look at the majority of posts, a joke.

Wow after stumbling on the other thread where the guy calls the sellers crooks and then tries to buy from them (wouldn't that make him in possession of stolen property) I just couldn't help but search for more on this. WOW again. I have no idea why grown men (I assume grown) men want to (collect? build? carry in their underwear?) some sort of Trek toy, but soon as you resort to calling and and personal attacks, I can't place much faith in what you're saying. To be frank, it looks numerous preceding posts against this (message board?) were made by the same person to me, due to a very similar content and distinct phrasing in their writing style.

It looks to me that anyone can post anything here. Truth is in the beliefs of the reader with no real endeavor to have the real truth. I don't think that I shall inconvenience myself or squander my time to even look at what I really came here for. Go on and play with your toys guys.
