Overnight, Paramount Products & Experiences begun its celebrations of Star Trek’s 60th anniversary at San Diego Comic-Con with the Star Trek: The Collector Frontier panel, where fans received exclusive first looks at the new sets from the LEGO Group.
Moderated by actor and presenter, Tiffany Smith, the panel featured designers from the LEGO Group and Wizards of the Coast, alongside Paramount executives who shared behind-the-scenes insights into the development of upcoming Star Trek products and debuted never-before-seen content. We’ll have more on the Magic: The Gathering announcements later.

Enterprise™ NCC-1701 Bridge set. Inspired by the Star Trek series that started it all, the playful video recreates the iconic bridge “turbulence” moments. Watch the full video below:
