These are so hideous. My cousin had one of these as a kid and we never once incorporated it into our play, and we mixed in EVERYTHING. Just horrifying.

Playmates own this license and have free reign to do whatever, but they do things like this...they make very little sense, it's almost like the guy in charge of this retro line just handed over the project to his dog, who pushes buttons on a giant machine and he obviously has no idea what he's doing, *woof* "haz putz dzose artikulaateed turples in duh san bax as re-paioto of bebarp fram 89, but Paiznt dem neon"
Yeah, I really like how the Super 7 figs look but only got Playmates money lol. Some stuff they do is cool tho, like the reissue of the 2012 figures, but most of the stuff they do is completely ass-backwards sadly ?
