If you like Star Trek toys and merchandise, this is the panel for you! Matthew Kaplowitz from Trek Untold was joined by Andrea Levine (from Nerd News Today and Insert Geek Here) and Jonathan Alexandratos to talk Trek toy history during Trek Long Island 2025. We brought in some rare items, including the first ever McDonald's Happy Meal tie-in (which was Star Trek), Trek Barbies, Kraft Star Trek marshmallow dispenser, and a bunch of other things, as well as some one-of-a-kind prototypes from Matthew's private collection. As if that wasn't enough, we are joined by a surprise guest - Star Trek DS9's Terry Farrell, who unboxes one of her action figures live on stage with us! This was plastic madness and a panel that toy collectors won't want to miss!
