1:6-scale Star Trek figure company EXO-6 is moving into the world of character accessories this year, as their long-awaited Enterprise-E captain’s chair replica is now available for preorder.
Ready to pair with the company’s Star Trek: First Contact-era Jean-Luc Picard figure released in 2021, the new Sovereign-class captain’s chair replica is a 6-inch tall accessory meant to allow the 1:6-scale figures to sit comfortably in command — while allowing collectors to recreate the Enterprise-E experience at home.
Built with integrated USB-powered lighting and sound functions, the Enterprise-E chair is the first Sovereign-class command seat ever released for collectors — and will pair well with the previously-released QMx Original Series captain’s chair if you already have that one in your personal collection.
The company is also working on a high-resolution display background to pair with the chair — representing the Enterprise-E bridge — which is expected to be a separate product for purchase at a later date; this is currently projected to be an approximately-$15 product.
Here’s the official breakdown on this new accessory:
EXO-6 presents its first environmental display diorama replica with the Captain’s Chair from the Enterprise-E. As seen in Star Trek: First Contact, this authentic 1:6th scale prop piece recreates the bridge command chair in extreme detail.
Captain Picard’s seat of power has been accurately recreated with the best reference available. The back and seat are molded in foam to replicate the look and feel of an upholstered chair. The armrests have simulated control panels that light-up with a layout taken from Michael Okuda’s original art from First Contact, based on Tom Mahoney’s LCARS button designs. The base also lights up as it did in the film.
Not only are there lights but the Enterprise-E Captain’s Chair features various sounds and phrases from the film. The USB-C port in the base powers the chair with an included cable that you can plug into any USB power supply such as a computer or a wall socket adaptor (not included).
Display this classic movie set piece with the EXO-6 1:6th scale Captain Picard figure from Star Trek: First Contact or on its own – it is an instantly recognizable collectible that will be the perfect desk display for any discerning Star Trek fan.
If sales support future endeavors like this one, here’s hoping a USS Voyager command chair may follow to pair with the company’s 1:6-scale Captain Janeway, and that future Star Trek captains will get their own special seating accessories down the road.
Expected to arrive to collectors this August, the new 1:6-scale Enterprise-E captain’s chair replica can be preordered at the EXO-6 website today for $195 USD with a $25 non-refundable deposit.
