Much-loved sci-fi TV series The Expanse had so much going for itwith memorable characters navigating high-stakes space action as well as often tense personal relationships. But the one thing it didn’t have, besides a seventh season (sigh)was a set of action figures. Beltalowda, that’s all about to change.
Launching tomorrow, a Kickstarter campaign aims to bring Expanse action figures, officially licensed by Alcon and created by Nacelle, out of the dreams of fans and onto their toy shelves. io9 is thrilled to debut images of the prospective figures, which include James Holden (played on the show by Steven Strait), Naomi Nagata (Dominique Tipper), Amos Burton (Wes Chatham), Chrisjen Avasarala (Shohreh Aghdashloo), Camina Drummer (Cara Gee), Bobbie Draper (Frankie Adams), Detective Josephus Miller (Thomas Jane), and everybody’s favorite blue meanie, the Protomolecule Hybrid. They come with 18 points of articulation, and the accessories—the precise attention to detail—are so, so good; you can tell these sets were designed by diehard fans.
Here’s a teaser video hyping up the March 1 launch (sign up to be notified when it’s live here), followed by images of the figures as well as rewards for the campaign’s various stretch goals. If the campaign is successful, the figures are estimated to ship in early 2025.
