Trek Untold has the scoop on some hot new Star Trek merchandise coming in 2025 and beyond, courtesy of our chat with Ben Robinson.It's been four years since Mr. Robinson joined this podcast to promote his work with Eaglemoss, a company that shut its doors in 2022. Now, Ben has moved on to become Creative Consultant on Fanhome for Star Trek product and Creative Director with Master Replicas for everything Sci-Fi, as well as writing Trek books, including helping Nana Visitor with her recent "Open A Channel" book.Ben tells us what really happened with Eaglemoss Hero Collector, how Master Replicas became involved in Trek beginning with their purchase of the warehouse goods, and how that led Ben to work with them, as well as Fanhome. From there, it's a dive into what's new and on the way, including why Fanhome is focusing their starships on the new Trek shows instead of the legacy ones, answering the age-old question of why their ships aren’t always in scale with each other, thoughts on the potential of larger piece-by-piece subscription builds with new starships, all of the details about Master Replicas’ new action figure line (created in the style of the classic Playmates Star Trek figures from the 90s), plus much more across this episode that will bring out the collector in you (and make you wish you had more gold-pressed latinum in your vault).Visit Fanhome to support their Trek ships and other merch at their official website: https://www.fanhome.com/.Visit Master Replicas to learn how to order their new Star Trek figures at their official website: https://www.masterreplicas.com/en-usPlease subscribe to our brand new YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@trekuntold .There, you will see all the old episodes of this show, as well as new episodes and all of our other content, including shorts and some other fun things planned for the future.Visit my Amazon shop to check out tons of Trek products andother things I enjoy - https://www.amazon.com/shop/thefightnerd View the Teespring store for Trek Untold gear & apparel- https://my-store-9204078.creator-spring.com Support Trek Untold by becoming a Patreon at Patreon.com/TrekUntold.Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and leave a rating if you like us!Follow Trek Untold on Social MediaInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/trekuntoldTwitter: https://www.twitter.com/trekuntoldFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/trekuntoldFollow Nerd News Today on Social MediaTwitter:
