Earlier this week, the LEGO Group, in collaboration with leading games, IP and toy company Hasbro, reveals the LEGO® Icons TRANSFORMERS Soundwave model set (10358), an immersive building experience crafted for adult fans. This collectible set captures the essence of the iconic Decepticon Soundwave and his loyal cassette companions in a detailed and dynamic LEGO brick interpretation. The LEGO Icons Soundwave set invites builders to build a highly detailed version of the legendary TRANSFORMERS character. With 1,505 pieces, the set features posable joints, a working cassette bay, and seamless conversion between robot and cassette player modes – without disassembly. Pressing Soundwave’s play button activates specially recorded voice and sound effects, offering an interactive, first-ever twist with sound. Accompanying Soundwave are two buildable cassette companions: Ravage and Laserbeak, that convert into miniature cassette tapes, fitting snugly into Soundwave’s chest compartment. Accessories including a rocket pod, laser blaster, and darts add to the set’s action-packed authenticity. A display plaque showcasing Soundwave’s power statistics makes this a perfect centerpiece for home or office display. This new set adds a villainous Decepticon to the existing the LEGO Icons TRANSFORMERS lineup, which also includes the LEGO Icons Optimus Prime set and the LEGO Icons Bumblebee set. The LEGO Icons TRANSFORMERS Soundwave set will be available for LEGO Insiders Early Access from 1st August and for all shoppers from 4th August via LEGO.com/Transformers and LEGO Stores, priced at €179.99 / £179.99 / $189.99. – ENDS –   Product Details LEGO® Icons TRANSFORMERS Soundwave Set ·       Age: 18+ ·       Price: 179.99€ / 189.99$ / 179.99£ ·       Pieces: 1,505 ·       Product No.: 10358 ·       Dimensions: Measures over 33cm high, 23cm wide and 10cm deep ·       LEGO Insiders Early Access: 1st August 2025 ·       Available for all: 4th August 2025 ·       Link: LEGO.com/Transformers Source link

The five Star Trek items are: Star Trek | Gary Seven Servo Limited Edition Prop Replica $100.00 Step into the world of Star Trek with Factory Entertainment’s stunning prop replica of the iconic Servo device – used by Gary Seven, a mysterious “Supervisor” first introduced in Star Trek: The Original Series episode, Assignment: Earth. The Supervisors are temporal field agents who travel through time to observe and influence critical events throughout history. The pen-sized Servo is far more than it appears. Compact, sleek, and powerful, this high-tech tool is instantly recognizable to fans of Star Trek. Painstakingly recreated after a detailed study of the surviving screen-used props, our Servo Replica is an authentic, high-quality collectible. Just like the originals, it’s precision-crafted from machined aluminum, featuring a functional spring-loaded pop-out mechanism and adjustable dials — a true homage to 23rd-century technology.

Star Trek | Enterprise-D Dedication Plaque Limited Edition Prop Replica $250 Every Federation starship carries a dedication plaque — a proud symbol of origin, purpose, and the spirit of exploration.

Now, Factory Entertainment invites you to own a piece of that Federation history with this 1:1 scale replica of the Enterprise NCC-1701-D Dedication Plaque, as seen in Star Trek: The Next Generation.

The plaque not only features screen-accurate detailing and materials , it also includes the names of many behind-the-scenes heroes from the TNG production team — a subtle nod woven into Star Trek history. Over two decades later, this very prop returned to the screen, loaned for use in Star Trek: Picard Season 3 during their epic recreation of the Enterprise-D bridge. Thanks to rare access to the original screen-used plaque, Factory Entertainment has meticulously recreated every element. Cast in heavy brass alloy, this premium replica features: A screen-accurate bi-metal delta A rich wooden frame with built-in display stand Intricately debossed and embossed text and details Options for both wall hanging and freestanding display This museum-quality collectible is a numbered limited edition of only 500 pieces, each accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity and a stunning 8×10 photograph from the Star Trek: Picard Season 3 set.
