SEPTEMBER 14, 2022 - “Space…the final frontier. These are the adventures of Playmobil. Their on-going mission, to create playsets that encompass all of the strange new worlds. To seek out new adventures with plastic civilizations. Boldly going where no playset has gone before.”

After the amazing Star Trek: TOS Enterprise playset. Playmobil now warps straight to the motion picture era with a playset from Star Trek III The Search for Spock with an equally impressive Klingon Bird of Prey. And man oh man, is this thing packed with goodies.

  • The bridge opens up to seat Klingon Commander Kruge where he can intercept the transmission from Admiral Kirk about the Genesis device.

  • The wings will be able to move from attack mode to in-flight mode.

  • There is even an incorporated playset featuring the molten end of the Genesis planet as its breaking apart.

  • And there are lights and sounds as well.

There are many characters included in this set to interact with. In addition to Kruge, we also get Maltz, Torg and another no-named officer (A Klingon red-shirt equivalent) as well as Admiral Kirk and a newly reborn Spock. There are Klingon weapons, communicators and extra view screen images as well to enhance your game play.

Here is the description from the Playmobil Announcement
