Just ahead of the 2023 San Diego Comic Con, Kotobukiya made some figure announcements. Among them was a teaser for the next Star Trek Bishoujo Figure, and it appears to be one inspired by Nyota Uhura from the original series. Only a silhouette appeared, so there’s no full reveal just yet.

Here is the official announcement for the next Star TrekBishoujo figure. She has a similar hairstyle as Uhura. She also wears the same hoop earrings. In addition, the hand gesture for her left hand is one she would make in the series, as she’d hold equipment to her ear as a communications officer.

However, in a past interview Kotobukiya noted that the characters in the Star Trek Bishoujo figure line are inspired by particular roles in the series. So the Vulcan one who is a science officer is just inspired by Spock from the original show. As such, this could be an original Star Trek figure inspired by Nyota Uhura.

There’s no official reveal or release window yet for this next Bishoujo figure. The first Star Trek Vulcan one will appear in September 2023 in Japan and show up worldwide later this year. The San Diego Comic Con runs July 20-23, 2023.
