This week’s Star Trek merchandise update has a variety of stuff for fans from cool retro art to another fine figure to a musical on vynil and more.
Vice Press celebrates TOS with original fine art poster
UK-based Vice Press has another release celebrating Star Trek. The latest is a set of fine art posters for Star Trek: The Original Series by American illustrator and graphic designer, Lyndon Willoughby. The poster design “captures the late 60s stylings of the show perfectly,” according to Vice. The new TOS poster will initially be available in two limited, hand-numbered editions, a regular edition of 200 and a foil variant of 150, both 24 x 36 inches. Both will be available from Vice-Press.com on Thursday the 4th of April at 6 pm BST. The regular lithograph sells for £39.99 (around $55) and the foil edition is £49.99 (around $65).

EXO-6 has unveiled another Star Trek: The Next Generation character to add to their impressive line of 1:6 scale figures.

I’m looking forward to Nana’s book, but where’s Deanna?
Yes, and T’Pol deserves to be there as well.
And Jadzia!!!!!!
There’s not nearly enough space on a book cover to feature all (or most) of the women involved with Trek. If Jolene Blalok, Marina Sirtis, and Terry Farrel chose not to participate in this project, then it’s reasonable they wouldn’t be featured on a cover.
And that answers my question. Thanks :D
I find it interesting that outside of Kira, they only includes the humans on the cover.
The Homo sapiens-only club strikes again!
The book is recounting histories about the women involved with Trek. Setting aside for the moment that all these people are homo sapiens, their characters or roles in the franchise are secondary to the narrative of the book.
I’ve always considered Seven to be an aspiring human.
That poster is sweet!
I really hope someone releases the soundtracks to TUC-INS on vinyl. They’d sell so well!
