Kirk and Spock Mirror Mirror

[samurainoir]

How well did Retros do in the wake of the new JJ Abrams film? Was there a spark of nostalgia for TOS stuff after seeing Kirk, Spock and co in action again?

If retailers were able to smartly take advantage of that higher profile on all things Trek when the marketing juggernaut gets under way, Perhaps the second opportunity would be in the wake of the second Abrams Trek film?

The toys released for the last movie were so atrocious, they certainly didn't do the franchise any good. No idea if this affected the retros...

DST actually ordered another run of just Kirk and Spock (which is where we
got the correct gold bands on Spock - and some Kirks got a tricorder).
They did sell a decent number before the film opened, but not as many
as was hoped. They are all gone now, but it was not the slam dunk that
it should have been.

At least it wasn't as bad for them as it was for Playmates!
