Nacelle’s new Star Trek line of figures may only just be getting ready to beam in, but we’re already chomping at the bit to see more of what the company has in store beyond a first wave of some truly delightful deep cuts. While we already know the lineup for wave two of the new line—revealed by none other than io9 ourselves back in March—now we can reveal two of our most anticipated figures in the plastic flesh.
To celebrate San Diego Comic-Con (and Nacelle’s panel at the convention, happening right now!), io9 can exclusively reveal two figure renders from the upcoming wave 2 line, due to start shipping next year: Captain Janeway, as she appears in the legendary Voyager two-parter “Year of Hell”, and Nog, in his Starfleet ensign uniform circa season 6’s “Favor the Bold”.
As you can see above, Janeway comes not in her typical captain’s uniform, but looking rough-and-ready from months of being hunted by the time-manipulating Krenim Imperium, dressed down to her tactical under vest and carrying a sentimental accessory: a pocket watch replicated for her birthday by Chakotay. Nog, meanwhile, is fully kitted out in the latter-DS9 era Starfleet uniform, complete with his rank pips indicating his ensign status. While we don’t see any accessories for the young Ferengi officer just yet, the figure is inspired by the iconic Dominion War arc that sees Nog and the crew of the Defiant lead the charge to successfully retake Deep Space Nine from Dominion and Cardassian forces in Season 6’s epic opening storyline.
Captain Janeway and Nog are joined by a veritable who’s who of Trek characters in wave 2, including Captain Kirk from Star Trek: Generations (complete with horse!) as well as Worf and Geordi wearing their sailor uniforms from the movie’s opening, Enterprise‘s T’Pol, Valeris from The Undiscovered Country, Bem from The Animated Series, Carol Marcus from Wrath of Khan, and the Romulan commander from one of the greatest Star Trek episodes of all time, “Balance of Terror”.
But that’s not all the news for today! io9 can also exclusively reveal Nacelle’s plans for two more waves of action figures in the line. Wave 3 will be perfectly timed to celebrate 60 years of the franchise in 2026 with the main stars of the original Enterprise crew coming out as a single wave–and even a secret two-pack to mark the anniversary. Meanwhile, things will be back to Nacelle’s “normal” mix up of familiar faces and deep cuts for wave 4, with highlights including Captain Sisko from Deep Space 9, and yes, the action figure you’ve all been waiting for: Doctor Beverly Crusher.
