UPDATE: Master Replicas has just announced the launch of a highly anticipated collectible model based on the legendary warship, Invictus, from the critically acclaimed Foundation Season 3. This stunning piece, inspired by the Apple TV adaptation of Isaac Asimov’s iconic series, is now available for pre-order at $115.
The Invictus, once the pride of Emperor Taurelian’s fleet, is a key weapon of the Foundation and one of the most powerful warships in the universe. Measuring eight inches across—mirroring the actual vessel’s enormous eight-kilometer diameter—this model captures the unique design of the ship with intricate details and functionality. The two inner rings of the model can even spin to display at various angles, enhancing its visual appeal.
The collectible is presented in premium packaging, featuring a magnetic flap that adds elegance to its presentation. The Invictus represents not just a visual marvel but also a pivotal element in the Foundation’s narrative. Initially a feat of engineering that housed a crew of 300,000, the warship was lost after a malfunction during a jump and later rediscovered by the Anacreons. Its return to the Foundation allowed for significant technological advancements, including the creation of the whisper-ships crucial to the fleet.
What’s more, the stakes for the Foundation are higher than ever. The series, which concluded its third season earlier this year, delivered a finale full of shocking twists, leaving fans eager for more. With a Certified Fresh rating of 91% on Rotten Tomatoes, the show has garnered critical acclaim for its bold storytelling and faithful adaptation of Asimov’s work.
Production for the highly anticipated fourth season is set to begin in early 2024, with new showrunners Ian Goldberg and David Kob taking the helm. This transition promises fresh developments for the series, especially after the dramatic events surrounding the Cleonic Dynasty and the emergence of The Mule, a character poised to challenge the galaxy’s status quo.
The Invictus model is now available for pre-order on the Master Replicas website and is expected to ship in April 2026. Fans and collectors alike should act fast, as this limited-edition collectible is sure to become a centerpiece for any Foundation enthusiast.
