Teamwork Makes the Dream Work: You’ll need a minimum crew of four to operate the ship. So, get your space brothers (or that one friend who loves to tell everyone what to do) and get ready for some interstellar antics.
Uniforms Provided: Yes, you get to wear a uniform. Now, you have a chance to be a space fashionista without anyone making fun of you.
Live Actors & Special Effects: You will be interacting with live actors and moving through cinematic effects such as smoke and sparks. It’s like being in your own episode of “Space Trek: The Slightly Less Professional Edition.”

The Alien Abduction Lamp: Beam Me Up, Lighty!
No spaceship-themed escapade is complete without the perfect ambient lighting. The Alien Abduction Lamp, a quirky lamp that brings the classic UFO abduction scene to your desk is introduced.
Features:
Glow-in-the-Dark Aliens: Three extraterrestrial pilots gaze at the spaceship’s portholes, looking for their next victim (it’s your leftover pizza, probably).
Removable Cow: The lamp comes with a seemingly floating cow that seems to be hovering over the ground as if it was captured by the UFO’s beam. The cow is removable, so you can take it off and put another abductee of your choice!
Conversation Starter: This lamp is sure to start…illuminating conversations if you are a sci-fi fanatic or simply looking for something that will brighten up your space and start conversations.
