What happened to Hasbro getting the Star Trek license? Was that just to get one more license for the Kreo line? If so Im pissed. I thought for sure we would have gotten some kind of info on figures and or ships.

There's only a finite amount of characters and aliens in all 7 movies and can only be remade so many times. (The wells a bit deeper with the clone wars series)
Everywhere I go Star Wars is now one of the slowest moving lines. The well isn't just dry, I think it's dust, until Disney starts making new movies.

What I'd like to see is Hasbro cut Star Wars in half (So they still have a presence, and still get worthwhile stuff out), and have the energies of the Star Wars team rededicated to Star Trek.
I think that combination would benefit both. You have a team that's accustomed to making 3"-4" toys with actor likenesses, they already know how to do vehicles for that scale (Not that trek has many vehicles suitable. Just shuttles. Maybe a Millinium Falcon sized Runabout). Star Wars really needs a rest so it can rebuild itself, AND I don't think Star Trek has what it takes anymore to be a giant sized line. A smaller kid friendly but collector oriented line for both, with the same team working both, I think is what they need to survive.

Hasbro owns Galoob, right? I WANNA SEE NEW TREK MICROMACHINES!

Well, Star Wars has managed to keep content in theaters and on TV consistantly the last decade. The same can't be said of Star Trek. With all the new Star Wars movies coming out I think it will be bigger than ever the way Disney promotes stuff.

Also, I disagree with everything you say, again. We'll just have to leave it at that, because I honestly don't give a shit one way or another. It's not trek starships.

I have to correct myself. Micromachines has a lot more than I remembered, though most of the later ones like the enterprise e and negvhar were impossible to get.

I have all of them. I only managed to get the E because I inherited a friend's collection when he decided to purge his trek stuff, though.

When I was a kid, I remember I got the entire first series, THEN they came out with a box set that had an exclusive E-A.
I wrote to galoob prasing the line, as well as presenting a wishlist of classes I wanted to see (All of them were eventually made!). And I also wrote about how I missed out on the A, because my parents wouldn't buy me a set of toys I already had. I wasn't asking for the toy, or really complaining. Just to put some content in the letter.
About a month later, there was a box in the mail, with the A in it.

So that was pretty dang cool.

I also think a huge obstacle to a trek micro machine resurgance is the fact that the vast majority of rhe ships per current cannon now never existed.

But this new line is supposedly going to have a Klingon battlecruiser and an unknown Starfleet ship from Into Darkness.
