Actually I never said - nor did the press release say - that the EMCE Star
Trek figures would be in TRU. No one has mentioned anything to me (yet).
As for comic shops, I think next year will see a lot of them going under
because of the economy. A comic shop is like a knitting store - you have
a very specialized customer base and it's very much a non-essential item.
Almost all comic shops are mom & pop's - most without the mom too -
so every month is a struggle to survive, even in good times. There is
a lot of product coming out from a lot of companies and the on-line
world is always luring away your customers.
