Back in September, the Nacelle Company announced that they’d obtained a license to produce Star Trek action figures — and today at New York Comic Con, they showcased the first eight characters set to launch their new product line in 2025.
 
Nacelle founder Brian Volk-Weiss led the hour-long panel during NYCC’s biggest day, explaining the background of the company’s new venture into Star Trek action figures — which will be from all series from The Original Series through Star Trek: Enterprise, and all feature films between The Motion Picture and Star Trek: Nemesis.
 
Volk-Weiss explained that Nacelle’s goal is to avoid repeating the same characters every new Star Trek action figure venture tackles — like Captain Kirk, Seven of Nine, Data, etc. — and focus on the vast multitude of other Trek characters that have never (or rarely) been seen in the action figure format.
 
With that effort in mind, the first wave of Nacelle Trek figures are likely to be character selections that few may have guessed!
 

The 6″-7″ action figure lineup will begin with Captain Edward Jellico (from “Chain of Command”), and continuing with midshipman Peter Preston (from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan), Valkris (from Star Trek III: The Search for Spock) and Captain Rachel Garrett (from “Yesterday’s Enterprise”).

The first wave will continue with Tuvix (from the Voyager episode of the same name), Mirror Jonathan Archer (from “In a Mirror, Darkly”), Vorta administrator Weyoun (from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine), and Captain Hikaru Sulu (as seen in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country).

Three paint-master prototypes were on display at NYCC today:

In addition to this first wave — and more figures already in the works to follow these initial eight releases — Nacelle is soliciting ideas from Star Trek fans on who they would like to see in future waves to complete their collections. If you’ve got ideas for who you want to see in this still-expanding product line, send their suggestions to startrekideas@nacellecompany.com.

Nacelle tells TrekCore that they anticipate opening preorders for their new Star Trek action figures in early 2025, with a goal of delivery before the end of next year. The company is also aiming for a price point in the under-$30 range, similar to the Star Wars Black Series action figure products.

We’ve got a lot more to share with you about Nacelle’s plans for Star Trek, including a lengthy interview with company founder and president Brian Volk-Weiss about their Trek philosophy (and why some of these obscure characters made it to the front of the line) — so stick around!
