We’re getting ready to head west to San Diego Comic Con — followed right after by the annual Las Vegas Star Trek convention next week — but before we go, here’s a quick roundup of all the latest Trek collectible news from the past few days!
First up: Vice Press returns to the Trek universe this week with their first new poster themed for one of the Next Generation films.
Australian artist Florey — who created the rad Wrath of Khan poster released through Vice Press in November — is back to celebrate 1996’s Star Trek: First Contact with a two-variant edition of his newest artwork.

Florey’s new the 24×36″ First Contact poster will be available in two versions: a standard red-and-cyan edition (limited to 175 prints), and a red-and-black foil edition (limited to 150 prints).
The standard poster will cost $55 / £40, and the foil edition will be $65 / £50. Both will go live at the Vice Press website starting at 1pm ET / 10am PT / 6pm BST on Tuesday, July 23.

The Star Trek franchise will have an official advent calendar product for the fourth year in a row — and this year, it’s not one filled with models or collectible trinkets.

For 2024, the team at Star Trek Wines has created a 24-bottle Star Trek advent calendar themed around the eight live-action television shows: The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, Enterprise, Discovery, Picard, and Strange New Worlds.

Available to preorder today for $139.99, each bottle holds 187ml — or approximately 1/4 a standard-sized wine bottle — of either red, white, or rosé wine, each themed to a particular Trek character from one of the covered series.
The calendar is titled “Volume 1: The Series Collection,” so it seems like the company has plans for additional advent releases in the future. This year’s calendar is expected to ship in November.

The pin-masters at FanSets have quietly rolled out a number of new Star Trek pins, with both unexpected deep-cut releases and celebrations of Lower Decks Season 4.
First are a pair of science-specialist pins worn by Gillian Taylor and Montgomery Scott in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, available in both pin-back and magnet form for $23.95 each.

You can see all of FanSet’s newest Star Trek offerings in their web shop.

Master Replicas may be done with Star Trek starships, but they’re not out of the final frontier! After quickly selling out of their first run of Moopsy plushes earlier this year, the company is returning to the animated world of Star Trek: Lower Decks with a new Badgey plush.

There’s nothing better to cuddle up to than this plush version of Star Trek: Lower Decks’ Badgey. Sure, he’s a psychopath who wants to kill us all, but rendered in 10” plush, he couldn’t be cuter or cuddlier.
Badgey is the second in Master Replicas Lower Decks plush series and joins Moopsy, which is back in stock after a sell-out first run. Pre-order now to get the first edition, which comes with a limited-edition Badgey card.
This 10-inch plush replica of the dastardly Starfleet hologram is available for preorder now at $24.99 and is expected to ship later this year.

Finally, Hero Within has announced three more Trek-themed jackets which will debut at San Diego Comic Con this coming week — following the Star Trek: Enterprise and Wesley Crusher jackets we first told you about earlier this month.
Available for preorder at the Hero Within booth (SDCC #1943) will be a Captain Picard “Darmok”-inspired jacket, as well as this grey “Utopia Planitia Development Team” jacket meant to represent the designers of the Galaxy-class USS Enterprise-D.

A fifth jacket meant to honor the 30th anniversary of Star Trek: Voyager will also be up for preorder at SDCC, however not at the Hero Within booth — for this one, you’ll need to head to Hero Within’s Energize Lounge pop-up located at 332 J Street in the nearby Gaslamp district.
