Future Star Trek releases[]
Fleet Flyers[]
Gentle Giant Toys planned to premiere its Star Trek: Discovery Fleet Flyers "ship dangler" toys at major retail chains in the fall of 2018. Ranging in length from three to five inches, these injection-molded plastic starships could be mounted on translucent stands. A suction cup formed the bottom of each stand and adjustable "action arm" ball joints allowed the ship to be posed at an array of angles. [2] [3]
In February 2019, the company reported that these products had been placed "on hold". [4]
