Subject: Galoob "Starship Troopers" toys

Greetings all, I happened to be in the mall tonight ( in the Chicago suburbs)
and found Status: RO

the "Starship Troopers" toys in KayBee Toys. There are six basic sets, each
with three MI troopers and one of the various Bugs. There are also six action
fleet sets with the Retreval Boat, Tac. fighter, and Tanker Bug
(?)
sets pictured on the backing card. The standing MI figures measure 25mm from
boot sole to helmet top. I guess this makes them tall 20mm's or short 25mm's
if the actual scale measurement is supposed to be sole to
eye-level.
My only complaint is that the figures are packed one Bug to three humans. This
would make it rather difficult to get the Bug horde effect.

Has anyone seen these Bugs or the Starship Troopers Micromachines in the NY
area? The Toys R Us in Fulton mall, Brooklyn has the 8 in. action figures and
the big 12 in. Electronic Bug if anyone's interested.
