Those Wolverine figures look like Happy Meal toys (not to sound like a grumpy old fan). I'm looking forward to that Legends case, passing on these.

Yes, but so are all the drivers from retaliation. It's just a shelf filler to stick in the background.

It's just down right sad to see such horrible junk thrown out by Hasbro. Narrowing the movie line down to just a wave of four figures isn't a bad idea, but I hope this experiment with five points of articulation ends after these toys end up shelf warming their way to the clearance bin.
Taking a nice figure like the ninja from the GI Joe movie line and reducing it down to five points of bad articulation should be against the law. |

Those Wolverine figures are $9.99 on tru.com which is just plain insulting.

IF I remember correctly the black ninja and samurai are 2 per case and each wolverine is 4 per case. They also had , what has become the Hasbro standard, 12 inch garbage wolverine and the kids claws play item.

Saw these at a TRU in NC. I couldn't believe they want $10 for this crap. These almost no articulation and no extras. Not even an annoying spring gimmick item. Ridiculous.

The Star Trek figures look nice, though.

Anyone seen the Star Trek hotwheels ships yet? I've been looking for those for months, and I don't even know if they've been released yet.
Can't see why they wouldn't have, because the movie's already been out a while and is old news.

Star Trek toys? where? I was excited to see the title...until i saw the statues. Sigh, maybe we'll get action figures of Star Trek this year, but I doubt it. According to the news the movie didn't do well...WHAT?? I went THREE times that week! It HAS to do well!

But in this society, if a movie doesn't open at over $100 million in three days, now it's considered a flop, and deemed a bad movie. (STID made $80m opening weekend in the US alone). It opened in the number 1 spot, and was the first movie to knock Ironman off that spot. Expectations for movies are getting kind of obscene and idiotic. Just like John Carter is now being considered one of the worst movies of all times, because it didn't make much money. The movie itself is being judged by the box office take. STID has it's issues, but it is not a bad movie. It is not a mediocre movie. It irrittates me that a genuinely respectible opening weekend is now getting it slammed as a bad opening.
