Star Trek Universe Figures Released in Canada
 
1 Attachment(s)
Thanks to a report from Manitoba we now know that the Star Trek Universe action figures have been released in Canada. Kirk, Riker & Khan were all on the shelf.

These were found at a Gamestop in Manitoba.

Share what figures are being sighted in your area in our Canadian Action Figure Sightings Forum

My wife bought the wrath of Khan figures. They are not very good. Very loose and wobbly, and the paint is not very good. But for $20 they aren't so bad. I'll tighten them up with some pledge.

I just hope they get around to making a TWOK Enterprise playset. I never liked their action figures, but their playsets were great.

I've been holding off on buying any until Playmates announces a second wave

Yeah saw these at Gamestop, do look cheaply made.

I wonder if they'll rush out a Saavik figure, given what just happened. They could reuse the body mold to also make Uhura.

The older 6 inch figures are better quality and a better deal.

I think I prefer the original Playmates. If they were trying to a MOTU Origins style revival, these missed the mark.

I'm not going to buy these until a playset is announced. These figures aren't worth it on their own merits.

They are lazy. Perhaps destined for Dollarama by next year

Yeah most reviews I have seen online say they are not good. While some things have been improved, mostly they are not a good improvement over the originals. Also definitely not worth the cost.

I assume it's the Pledge Revive It Floor Gloss fix. Work a small amount in a joint to tighten it up. I've used it on figures with weak ankle joints.
