(written from a Production point of view)
Art Asylum originated as an American toy design house and was founded by Digger Mesch and Donna Soldano in Brooklyn, New York in 1996. For its first five years, Art Asylum designed toys for Hasbro and for Playmates' Star Trek: Alien Combat line, among other projects.
In 2007, the company was acquired by Diamond Select Toys LLC, an affiliated company of Diamond Comic Distributors, Inc., the distributor of many Star Trek replicas, toys, novelties, comics, and magazines.
Art Asylum premiered its first Star Trek products in 2001 while it was still an independent toy manufacturer. Releases have included three-inch "Minimates" figures, seven- and eleven-inch action figures, electronic "Starship Legends" starships, and life-sized "role-playing" accessories.
Art Asylum was among several companies that obtained licensing to produce Enterprise products during the initial airing of the series. Art Asylum also produced licensed products from other Star Trek series and films, with the exception of 2009's Star Trek and its sequels.
Art Asylum's toys differed greatly from those of its predecessors due to the use of computer scanning technology at Gentle Giant Studios to create highly detailed sculpts of props, costumes, vehicles, and people. For its line of Enterprise action figures, an innovative material called "Kreaton" was used to conceal the joints on the figures' limbs.
While the first waves were widely available at retail, Art Asylum's subsequent Star Trek product lines suffered from erratic distribution and were often restricted to online sales and sporadic retail availability at specialty shops. Following its acquisition by Diamond Select Toys, the company's Star Trek toys began to receive a wider distribution once again.
Diamond Comics also released IDW's "Star Trek - Green Lantern: The Spectrum War Issue 1" comic book with two exclusive covers in July 2015. It also distributes Eaglemoss Collections' partworks and EMCE Toys' products to retail in a number of countries.
The history and development of the Art Asylum Star Trek line was featured in the "Star Trek" episode of The Toys That Made Us in 2018.

•While Art Asylum had intended to release the entire crew from Star Trek: Enterprise in standard uniforms as well as EV suits, poor sales led the company to skip ahead to Star Trek: The Original Series action figures. This left several figures unreleased. In 2002 a standard "Trip" Tucker action figure was released as an exclusive through online retailers, however neither figures for Dr. Phlox nor Hoshi Sato were ever released in their standard "Broken Bow" outfits.
•Similarly, poor sales led to the premature discontinuation of Enterprise's "Away Team" line, leaving Reed and Mayweather EV suit figures unreleased.
•The Enterprise NX-01 vehicle was initially shown in advertisements including Archer and T'Pol figures, however, the figures were dropped before the product reached stores.
•Vehicle toys were originally planned to be "interactive" and to scale with one another. Art Asylum production staff had also hoped to produce alien vessels from Enterprise.
•The battle-damaged Enterprise refit toy features packaging labeled Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, yet displays damaged inflicted not only in that film, but the following film, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock.
•Molds for Art Asylum's "Trek Tek" phase-pistol were so accurate that the toys were used in the production of Enterprise as stunt or background props.
