EXO-6 has released a limited edition statue of Captain Angel, the non-binary villain from Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Standing 28 cm tall and priced at $225, the figure captures the essence of the character portrayed by Jesse James Keitel. This piece represents a step forward in diversity within collectibles, offering fans the opportunity to own an object that reflects the cultural evolution of the franchise.
Design process and technical details of the figure 🖌️
The statue is made of high-density resin, with a hand-painted finish that reproduces the folds of the uniform and the character's facial makeup. It includes a base with the series logo and a rear support to maintain balance. According to EXO-6, the digital scanning process started from direct references from the filming to ensure precision in features such as the asymmetrical hairstyle and metallic details of the belt. The edition is limited to 500 individually numbered units.
The villain who came to save your shelf from boredom 😈
If your Star Trek figure collection only has heteronormative captains from the 90s, it's time to modernize it. Captain Angel is not only a stylish villain, but will also put your other statues in their place: literally, because it takes up 28 cm of shelf space. For $225, you take home a piece of LGBTQ+ history and, incidentally, the perfect excuse to explain to your friends why your display case looks like a galactic diversity convention.
