Reminisce over Six Decades of 'Star Trek' with Nacelle's Nostalgic Action Figures
In a thrilling reveal at San Diego Comic-Con 2025, Nacelle unveiled Wave 3 of their upcoming Star Trek action figure line. This wave, set to launch in 2026, will pay homage to the original series as part of its 60th anniversary celebration.
The line-up for Wave 3 is impressive, featuring the entire main cast from the original series. Characters such as James T. Kirk, Spock, Leonard McCoy, Nyota Uhura, Hikaru Sulu, Pavel Chekov, Montgomery Scott, Nurse Christine Chapel, and Janice Rand will all be represented. A surprise two-pack is also planned to celebrate the series' anniversary.
However, Nacelle has yet to announce a pre-order or official release date for Wave 3, with the exact timing still unconfirmed[1][2]. Fans can currently pre-order the first wave of Nacelle's Star Trek figures, which features deep-cut characters like Weyoun, for release in late 2025[3][5].
One of the most anticipated figures from Wave 3 is Nyota Uhura. This will be the first time an original series Star Trek figure is equipped with a classic phaser rifle[4]. Uhura's action figure will also come with at least one separate teeny-tiny communication earpiece or an alternate head using it[6]. The exact details of additional accessories for Uhura's figure were not provided in the text.
Nacelle announced its Star Trek line by creating an eclectic mix of characters instead of focusing on Captain Picard and Captain Kirk[7]. This approach has been well-received by fans, who are eagerly awaiting the release of Wave 3.
