Factory Entertainment Partners with Paramount for ‘Star Trek’ Collectibles
Multiyear agreement will expand the company’s line of prop replicas and other collectibles for “Star Trek.”
Factory Entertainment has announced it has entered a multiyear agreement with Paramount parent, Viacom International, to expand upon its best-selling line of movie and television collectibles for “Star Trek.”
Factory Entertainment’s “Star Trek” line will be centered primarily around its prop replica business. Since 2011, the company has established itself as a leader in producing authentic, limited-edition replicas of props and gadgets from movie and TV properties.
“The many props featured in ‘Star Trek’ over the decades have always reflected an imaginative and forward-looking design aesthetic, that have not only captivated fans, but often influenced the design of real-world technology,” says Jordan Schwartz, president and chief executive officer, Factory Entertainment. “As a ‘Star Trek’ fan myself since the 1960s, I’m thrilled and honored to be entrusted by Paramount to continue to bring some of the most iconic items in ‘Star Trek’ history to the many fans of the franchise in all its incarnations.”
In 2022, Factory Entertainment released limited-edition replicas of several props from “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” “Star Trek: First Contact” and “Star Trek: The Motion Picture.” Factory Entertainment is well underway on the production of prop replicas and other collectibles for this year including items from the original Star Trek series, “Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan,” “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” “Star Trek: Voyager” and “Star Trek: Picard.” Also in development for release in 2024 are the first prop replicas from “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.”
In addition to prop replicas, Factory Entertainment’s offerings will include studio scale starship models, high-end dioramas, barware and novelty items including Factory’s proprietary CHS keychain and pin set and Fandages collectible fashion bandages lines.
