Unfortunately, the only transporting this bronze Mass Relay tie clip will be doing is transporting your mind to a place where you are sitting at home on the couch eating Doritos and playing Mass Effect 3. The other problem is that it is currently sold out. However, Etsy seller Mark Wengryn claims that other Relays will be made in the future. Then again, you could always contact him and beg for a custom order.
Thanks to Beth for the tip!

Next time you feel like going all Tokyo monster stomp in your office, just pull out one of these ties instead. Inspired by the classic game Rampage, these ties let you unleash your inner monster without getting fired. Or thrown in jail. You can choose which scene inspires you most, or maybe you’re having a really rough time at work and need all three. All the better to imagine stomping that annoying guy in accounting.

Maybe you can’t wear a Star Trek uniform to the office every day, but these ties from the Original Series are a perfect geeky accent, and the solid colors go with so many things. They are dyed to match the uniforms from TOS, and the insignia on the Enterprise delta shield at the bottom matches the corresponding division.
Check out a detail shot after the break.
TIE fighting? Not anymore. Japan’s Kotobukiya have released these plated brass Star Wars lightsaber tie tacks representing both Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker’s saber handles. The downside is that they only seem to be available in Japan.
It’s basically just a red bow tie, but its the only red bow tie that has the distinction of being an officially licensed Doctor Who product. Accept no red bow tie substitutes.
For added authenticity, pair it with the official 11th Doctor’s jacket.

If you thought bow ties couldn’t possibly get any geekier—take a look at the evidence. Bonus nerd points for being a clip-on.

Sadly, this circuit board tie won’t get you any closer to your dream of becoming a cybernetic superhero, but you can definitely get the look—especially if you wear the matching shirt.
Somebody fast track that guy I saw wearing the tie with a little sombrero dude riding a dinosaur. I like the cut of his jib. Good upper management material.

From CubicleBot: It looks like an ordinary tie from the front, but the back hides built-in bubble wrap that you can discreetly play with when you are stressed out at work.
Unfortunately it’s only a concept at this point, which is just as well considering that the bubble wrap would be exhausted before lunch time. On the plus side, there are bubble wrap keychains that can keep you popping all day long.
