Three months after 1:6-scale Star Trek character figure company EXO-6 took their first steps into the franchise with a new Lt. Commander Data figure, the company has launched presales for their next entry in the line today: Captain Jean-Luc Picard as seen in Star Trek: First Contact.
EXO-6 revealed the first public images of the highly-detailed character figure this morning. The second release in their Star Trek: First Contact lineup, this new Captain Picard figure replicates the Enterprise-E commander’s look from that second Next Generation feature film — right down to a costume change.
Here’s EXO-6’s full breakdown of its features:
· Fully Articulated Body: More than 30 points of articulation allow the figure to be displayed in multiple dynamic poses, approximately 30 cm tall.
· Realistic Portraits: Picard’s stern expression shows his resolve in taking on the Borg no matter what the cost. Lovingly rendered by a top artist, this excellent likeness of Patrick Stewart as Captain Picard is specially hand-painted.
· Starfleet Duty Uniform: Meticulously researched, this duty uniform matches the pattern and color of the original costume recreated in 1:6 scale. Including the captain’s jacket, captain’s vest, and duty trousers – all exactingly matched to the original costume. Magnets are sewn into the pants so the holsters for the tricorder and phaser can be attached. An authentically scaled communicator badge is permanently affixed to the jacket and the vest. (Vest and jacket cannot be worn at the same time).
· Boots: Soft plastic boots sculpted to match the cut and style of the original movie footwear.
· Display Base: A hexagonal display base featuring the transporter pad will provide additional support for the figure. Two different inserts for the floor of the base can represent the transporter pad or the center of the transporter array.
Like the Data figure, the 1:6-scale First Contact Picard measures about 12″ tall, and includes a number of film-accurate accessories — perfect for fighting back a Borg invasion.
Along with his movie-accurate Starfleet uniform (and that captains-exclusive vest!), this Picard release includes a Starfleet phaser rifle, a Type II hand phaser, a Mark X Starfleet tricorder, as well as several alternate hands for accessory use.
· Type II hand phaser. The phaser can be worn in a black holster that magnetically attaches to his pants.
· TR-590 Tricorder X: This standard tricorder can be opened or worn in a holster.
· Phaser rifle: Type 3B Phaser rifle used by the Enterprise crew to battle the invading Borg.

In addition to the First Contact Picard figure, EXO-6 also announced on social media late last month that they’ll be offering a standalone Enterprise-E captain’s chair replica — scaled to their 1:6 figures — later this year.
So far no additional details about that product are yet available, but we’ll bring you news on that once we know more!
