Seen in a place called Ollie's, which buys up merchandise stores like Walmart can't unload. I didn't think it was worth the ten bucks. Ugly, ugly toys.

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I know what they looked like. I had a tub of them.
But they stopped being that in the '90s. They didn't stop being for toddlers, though. And parents are strongly influenced by their own childhood when buying things for their kids.
If you're trying to appeal to people from the 50s to the 80s with your toy line, but it doesn't look like the toy line they remember, it's not really going to appeal to them.
There's a reason it's in the discount store.
Idk, they may have just made too many of them. We have some of these but lord of the rings that we got for our kids a few years ago, but at this point they've both aged out of Little People.
Give me some proper trek lego already
That would be awesome. The Mega Bloks versions were not good. I'm actually surprised there hasn't been more Star Trek toy licensing lately.
