That knockoff packaging has been around for a while. I've seen it in other pictures before.
Wow. Umm.. yeah...

I'd buy one, just for the laughter. It would be right there, beside my desk. |

I wish I had Handsome Appearance Super Power 
Even better is up in the upper right corner. Super Assembled!
Not to mention the Copyright infringement of the Black Costumed Spiderman on the top right corner, holding his hand out about to shoot a web from his wrist....lol

Factory boss to employee: hey, cook us up another toy line.
Employee to boss: no problem, chief. I'll just Baidu up some pics, slap some power rangers on a blister card and...done.

Hahaha, thanks, Lightslinger! That is an amazing find. The picture fills me with so much glee that I just don't have the heart to be appalled yet.
At first glance I thought they were Paragon Protectors. Sigh.
I have all the Hero Clix figures that came with the City of Villains Collector's Edition. They're standing on my desk, posturing at each other.

Though I am disappoint that they aren't "real" City of Heroes toys....
Freedom
Blueside: Knight'Hawk, lvl 50, Scrapper
Yellowside: Dark'Falcon (Loyalist), lvl 20, Blaster
That Stinging Sensation #482183
It looks like only the head and arms at the shoulders move.
If so these are some junky toys.

Wonder how much lead paint is in those suckers, lol.
Hate to use bad words like 'Warcraft'. But it would be nice if CoX ever managed to market this game like they manage their merchandice. Statesman figurines, collector cards, w/e. Then have it all available online.
hahaha!
We get this kind of thing here in Brazil all the time.
And it makes me mad

This pack celebrates City of Heroes' ability to mimic trademark characters such as, but not entirely for copyright reasons, Power Rangers, Spiderman, Batman and more!

Of all the logos for petty unlicensed toy manufacturers to use they found OUR'S, really?! Too funny not to share, Merry Christmas!))  |

There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
