As we approach the new year, first off, I want to say to all of you in the /toy/ community: I wish you all a happy new year!
Second, as we've seen in the past, the future of Star Trek toys and action figures is uncertain and in peril. We have no idea if the IP will be profitable for toys like it was in the '90s.
Though we have the new Nacelle figures, I feel the character choices are unwise and odd. Playmates also showed little care with the license and made a poor attempt at rebooting it.
Do we have any hope for Star Trek toys in 2025 and 2026, with the 60th anniversary and a potential new Star Trek theatrical movie in 2026? We do know that LEGO is working on a Star Trek: The Next Generation set, thanks to leakers, which will be interesting to see. LEGO, for sure, will likely do a good job with it.
Hopes? Speculations? How would you reboot Star Trek for a retail toy line? Is there a future for Star Trek, or is it a dead IP? Will Skydance save it?
Let’s discuss.
