Opening Cockpit & Cargo Sections

Collector Notes

The Runabout Orinoco was one of the major vehicle releases produced for Playmates' Star Trek: Deep Space Nine range. Runabouts were an important part of the television series, serving as passenger and cargo transports and allowing the DS9 crew to undertake missions away from the station.

The Orinoco combines a large vehicle format with opening sections, electronic sounds and illuminated engine nacelles, making it a distinctive companion piece to the Playmates 6251 Deep Space Nine Space Station.

For collectors building a vintage Playmates DS9 display, the combination of the 6251 Space Station DS9 and 6252 Runabout Orinoco represents two of the most recognisable larger releases from the original Deep Space Nine toy range.

What's in the Box

As this particular example remains sealed, the internal contents have not been removed or individually inspected. The original Playmates release included the Runabout Orinoco and associated components including:

• Runabout Orinoco vehicle
• Removable thruster components
• Phaser component
• Cargo pallet
• Technical blueprint
• Collector documentation / Certificate of Authenticity

Vintage Sealed Condition

This is a genuine vintage 1994 collectible and remains sealed in its original box. As with any item more than 30 years old, the outer packaging may show storage, shelf or age-related wear. Please refer carefully to the supplied product photographs for the exact condition of the packaging.

Because the box remains sealed, Mad Zombie Collectables has not opened the item to inspect the internal contents or test the original electronic functions. No guarantee can therefore be provided regarding the operation of electronic components after more than three decades.

Display & Compatibility

The Runabout Orinoco was designed for use with Playmates' approximately 4.5-inch Star Trek action figures, with seating inside for two figures. Its substantial size, opening sections and electronic features also make it an impressive standalone display piece for a vintage Star Trek collection.
