1:6-scale Star Trek action figure company EXO-6 is moving into their next cinematic expansion, as they celebrate the final adventure of Captain Kirk’s Enterprise crew: Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.
 
EXO-6 will be marking the anniversary of Star Trek VI’s original release — December 6, 1991 — with a trio of 1:6-scale figures from the film, Lieutenant Valeris (Kim Catrall), Captain Sulu (George Takei), and General Chang (Christopher Plummer).
 
The company shared with us some detail about why they are focusing on Star Trek VI, and why they’ve selected these three characters to highlight.
 

As we celebrate the anniversary of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, it’s crucial to reflect on its profound impact on the Star Trek franchise and its lasting legacy. Released in 1991, this film marked a pivotal moment in the franchise’s history, effectively culminating the narrative arc of the original series while introducing themes that resonate even today.

 

The story unfolds against the backdrop of a fragile peace between the United Federation of Planets and the Klingon Empire, exploring complex themes of reconciliation, understanding, and the inherent fears that often accompany change. This exploration of diplomacy and the challenges of letting go of old grudges serves as a metaphor for real-world political dynamics, making the film relevant far beyond its initial release.

 

A key figure in this narrative is a formidable antagonist, portrayed by the award-winning actor Christopher Plummer. This character embodies the entrenched militarism of the Klingon Empire, serving as a significant adversary to the protagonists. He represents the tensions of a new era, as the Federation seeks to forge peace while he clings to the values of a bygone age.

 

Plummer’s performance is notable for its depth and charisma, with this character’s cunning intellect and theatrical flair — complete with memorable Shakespearean quotes — elevating him beyond the typical villain. His ability to manipulate situations and challenge the heroes intellectually and emotionally adds a compelling layer to the film, keeping audiences engaged and invested in the outcome.

Moreover, The Undiscovered Country holds historical significance as it features the last on-screen appearance of the entire original cast of Star Trek. This milestone not only celebrates the decades-long journey of these iconic characters but also serves as a heartfelt farewell to an era that has profoundly influenced the science fiction genre and popular culture.

 

The film encapsulates the essence of what made Star Trek groundbreaking: its emphasis on hope, exploration, and the belief that understanding can overcome conflict. In preparation for this anniversary, collectors and fans of the franchise will be excited to learn that EXO-6 is set to release three one-sixth scale figures inspired by The Undiscovered Country.

 

These figures, which will be available for pre-order starting next week, promise to capture the essence of the film and its beloved themes. Collectors will have the opportunity to own meticulously crafted representations of key characters, each showcasing the exquisite detail and craftsmanship that EXO-6 is renowned for. These figures will not only serve as collectibles but also as a means to commemorate the film’s significance and its place in the hearts of fans.

 

As we reflect on the enduring significance of Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country, it becomes clear that this film remains a cornerstone of the Star Trek legacy. Its thought-provoking themes, memorable characters, and rich storytelling continue to resonate with audiences today. The upcoming release of collectible figures by EXO-6 is a fitting tribute to this landmark film, ensuring that the spirit of exploration, adventure, and the quest for understanding lives on in both new fans and seasoned veterans of the franchise.

 

As we look back on this anniversary, we celebrate not just a film, but the enduring ideals it represents—an invitation to boldly go forth and seek new horizons.

You’ll be able to preorder Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country figures at EXO-6.com once they are live next week.
