Page "The Specials (film)" Paragraph 4

The cracks begin to show as they prepare to attend a dinner in their honor thrown by Kosgrov Toys, who are releasing a line of action figures based upon the group.

The event is a travesty.

It becomes quickly apparent that Kosgrov did little research on the Specials, and low-balled the production by utilizing cheap accessories and recycled parts.

Worse yet, the leader of the Specials, The Strobe ( Thomas Haden Church ), discovers that his wife, Ms. Indestructible ( Paget Brewster ), is cheating on him with the most popular member of the group, The Weevil ( Rob Lowe ).

In a fit of anger, the Strobe disbands the group, and the members go their own ways.
