Synopsis:
The Specials, the seventh greatest superhero team in the world, need to improve their image. Unfortunately, they spend more time bickering about love affairs, fiances and publicity, then they do catching Super Villains. However, The Specials' luck may soon change. The Weevil (Rob Lowe), The Strobe (Thomas Hadden Church), Amok (Jamie Kennedy) and the rest of the The Specials hope to gain immortality with their own line of action figures... the superhero equivalent of an Academy Award. Tensions mount when the unveiling of tehh The Specials' toy line makes them look utterly ridiculous. With their dreams shattered, they start fighting amongst themsleves and The Strobe, disgusted with it all, disbands the group. This band of misfit superheroes must now decide whether to go their separate ways or reunite, realizing that whether or not the world needs The Specials, The Specials need each other. Before they can save the world, they'll have to save themselves.
