Funko Is Finally Making MoreStar Trek: TOSPops, and There Are Some Doozies

Of the seemingly thousands ofPop figuresthatFunkohas made , it ’s weird to think that the company has only released six from Star Trek : The Original Series , way back in 2013 . Sure , it ’s made characters from The Next Generation , the Star Trek Beyond movie , and even put the cast ofThe Big Bang Theoryin Trek uniforms since then . But Funko will finally compensate this wrong later this year with eight new figure from TOS .

The original six Pop figure included Kirk , Spock , Scotty , a Klingon , an Andorian , and an Orion Slave Girl . It should n’t be surprising that after so long , asStarTrek.comreports , the new series also contains a Kirk and Spock , but now the former is sitting in his sea captain ’s chair , while Spock is , uh … accommodate a cat .

What ’s more surprising is that half the wave is made up of the malign “ Mirror , Mirror ” dopplegangers . This also includes Kirk and Spock , of class , but also Urura and Sulu , which make these the first Pops of Nichelle Nichols and George Takei in their iconic roles , which seems kind of weird .

However , the last two are ones any Pop - loving Trek fans ( or Trek - have intercourse Pop fans , I estimate ) will need to break up up : Khan , as portray by Ricardo Montalban in the 1967 sequence “ Space Seed , ” and the Gorn from his infamously slow - paced fight with Kirk in “ Arena , ” which ventilate the same year .

Some of these Pop figure are now up for pre - order ( they ’ll set you back $ 10.99 each ) atFunko ’s prescribed depot , but should be available at some level at your normal online sellers of wonk collectible . If you want them , you might as well as go ahead and snag them , since it could be another eight years before Funko gets around to making more .
