So... the chess set is based on the movie line aiming at 'da kidz', while the GUMMY SWEETS are based on previous lines? Wha?

Hmmmm... Well, I am not sure about this idea. Wish it would have been made by those Gummi Bear folks at Harbro (not Hasbro). They have the best gummis on the market.

Ha ha love the Gummi Bears cartoon reference. I haven't seen that show in a while come to think of it...
Anyway, these look yummy, but the sculpts need some work (

Needs more detail. What, no die-cast? Hasbro really cheaped out on the paint apps. Screw these, I'll have to import mine...
