Playmates Toys Gains Master Toy License for ’09 Star Trek Film

Playmates Toys will launch a collectible lineup of all-new toys coinciding with next summer’s release of the Paramount film Star Trek, directed by J.J. Abrams. The line will include action figures, vehicles, playsets, and role-play toys.

Arriving on store shelves in spring 2009, the first phase of the new Star Trek toys will include action figures—3.75-inch, 6-inch, and 9-inch—as well as a special 12-inch scale of collector figures. Additionally, the line will include basic role-play toys and deluxe versions with electronic features; playsets that are compatible with the 3.75-inch action figures; vehicles, such as the USS Enterprise; and more.
