Last year, Playmates Toys announced that they were returning to the Star Trek universe with a new toy line after a 12 year absence. Today, they made good on that promise with the debut of a wave of action figures and replicas that cover a wide range of Star Trek history. The collection includes toys based on The Original Series, The Next Generation, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, and Star Trek Discovery.

The return of Star Trek Playmates Toys follows the debut of the CG-animated Star Trek: Prodigy on Paramount+, which is the first Star Trek series aimed at younger audiences. It follows a crew of young aliens learning to work together as they explore the galaxy, searching for a better future. Though they know little of Starfleet and less about the ship they’ve commandeered, their adventures bring them closer and closer to achieving the ideals the Federation represents. You can check out more details about the series right here. The Discovery spinoff Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is also expected to debut on Paramount+ starting on May 5th, 2022.
