ThinkGeek's Star Trek onesies are a great change from the boring old Bob the Builder and Disney Princess junk you'll get heaped on you the second your kid emerges. I love that they have a redshirt version (for expendable babies!).

Surely you wouldn't want to give your baby a red shirt!
Bet they don't sell so many red ones.
Just sticking a badge on a coloured body is not enough. They need to be long sleeved with the black collar detail. And then a "Next Generation" set with the black shoulder pieces.
Best,

I agree with Ernst on the detailing. The above photo is pretty cute, though, with the Starfleet-captain-to-be gazing into a hopeful future... Or just gurgling at the plush Tribble the photographer is dangling...
According to ThinkGeek's Twitter account, 11% of onesies sold are red. http://twitter.com/thinkgeek/status/5182761991

You have to wonder how popular they are as gifts.
I'd have to get one as a gift. $16 is way too much for any onesie - no matter how cute or how geeky. Unless it was StarWars. Then I would be compelled by the power of the dark side of the force to purchase.
Ernst is right, the badge just does not cut it.
Star Trek onesie should be able to absorb "dark matter".
I've been working on a new screen printing method using a laser cutter and stainless steel mesh. My test bed so far has mostly been dorky onesies, including things like the Pioneer 10 plaque, ArtBots logos, etc:
