You know, as much as I hope the toys and whatnot are successful (and many do look neat), I can't help but get this feeling that they will pull an Indy 4 and flop sales-wise. I hope I am wrong on this.
My local Kroger store still has INDY action figures in its toy aisle marked down to three for ten bucks or something similar. The figures(characters from all four movies)came out when the movie did last summer but most sold poorly.
Actually, only figures from
Raiders and
Crystal Skull came out last summer.
ToD and
LC were suppose to follow later that summer, but the line was doing very poorly, so they were pushed back until before Christmas time when a few were issued to stores. In fact, I believe that
ToD figures were mostly online-only, which sucks, because that usually means the prices are usually jacked up and I really wanted to get a Mola Ram figure.
You know I'm probably going to get flamed for saying this but until someone pointed out that this was the Abrams version I thought that WAS the TOS Enterprise. (and yes I know there different designs)
In fairness, at that angle and at quick glance, it could be easily confused.
