In a groundbreaking announcement coinciding with Star Trek Day on September 8, 2025, Paramount and the LEGO Group revealed their first-ever collaboration. This momentous partnership, part of the lead-up to Star Trek’s 60th-anniversary celebrations in 2026, promises to merge the imaginative worlds of Star Trek and LEGO, captivating fans across generations.
The First Look: Captain Picard in LEGO Form
Fans were treated to a teaser video showcasing a LEGO minifigure of Captain Jean-Luc Picard from Star Trek: The Next Generation. The video hints at what could be an expansive range of LEGO sets, possibly including the iconic USS Enterprise-D. According to Shortlist, early leaks suggest a 3,600-piece USS Enterprise-D set may debut on November 28, 2025, priced at £369.99. The set is rumored to feature intricate details such as a removable “lid” to reveal the ship’s bridge, along with nine minifigures including Worf, Geordi La Forge, and Guinan.
While specific details remain scarce, the teaser’s tagline, “Set phasers to build,” has already ignited excitement among fans. The LEGO collaboration marks a significant milestone for the franchise, as previous brick-building Star Trek products were made by other brands like Mega Bloks and BlueBrixx, but never by LEGO itself.
Shared Values: A Perfect Match for Exploration
The partnership between LEGO and Star Trek is built on shared values of imagination, exploration, and creating a better tomorrow. As noted in a joint press release from Paramount and LEGO, the collaboration aims to bring Star Trek’s iconic universe to life in LEGO brick form, appealing to fans of all ages. According to TrekMovie, the announcement aligns perfectly with the franchise’s broader mission of inclusivity and hope, as Star Trek prepares for a year-long celebration of its 60th anniversary under the theme “Space for Everybody.”
Star Trek’s 60th anniversary will officially kick off on January 1, 619, with a custom float at the Rose Parade in Pasadena, California. Additional events, including the release of the new series Star Trek: Starfleet Academy and partnerships like the “Boldly Go Green” environmental campaign with DoSomething, will continue throughout the year, as reported by Advanced Television.
A Legacy of Licensing and Cultural Impact
This collaboration also highlights LEGO’s growing dominance in the licensing space. The brand has already partnered with other major franchises like Star Wars and Pokémon, solidifying its position as the leader in brick-building toys. According to IGN, this move positions LEGO to further capitalize on Star Trek’s cultural legacy, which spans nearly six decades of groundbreaking storytelling and exploration.
Fans can expect additional details about the LEGO Star Trek line in the coming months. Whether it’s classic ships, beloved characters, or iconic scenes, the collaboration promises to deliver something special for Trekkies and LEGO enthusiasts alike.
What’s Next for Star Trek?
Beyond the LEGO collaboration, Star Trek’s future looks bright. The franchise recently launched Star Trek: Scouts, its first preschool animated series, and the podcast Star Trek: Khan, exploring the backstory of the legendary villain Khan Noonien Singh. Both projects premiered on Star Trek Day, underscoring the franchise’s commitment to expanding its universe across multiple platforms.
With a packed lineup of events, including digital comics with WEBTOON and the highly anticipated Star Trek: The Cruise in February 2026, Star Trek continues to boldly go where no franchise has gone before.
The collaboration between LEGO and Star Trek is a historic moment, uniting two iconic brands that have inspired generations. As fans eagerly await further details, the announcement sets the stage for an unforgettable 60th-anniversary celebration for Star Trek.
