Hey pizza fans, there's a new Pizza Set out featuring Marge as the roller cutter and Homer holding what looks like a huge slice of pizza which is a cheese grater. The product is released by Lion Brush Limited and is now out. Price for this product is somewhere around $24.99. One thing is the edges on these are sharp so kids.. don't use them as toys.
Hey Fans.. as you may or may not have noticed, our header on the home page has been "halloween-ized". We're keeping the special design on the home page till the end of October and then we're going to move the header to a new special section on the site dedicated to the Simpsons Treehouse House of Horrors episodes. It may be a little early but we love the whole Halloween holiday.
Hey fans, we've got some small news updates for you. First Burger King has officially announced the release of the Halloween Creepy Classics set they are releasing in participating Burger King locations in the United States. The Burger King website ( http://www.burgerking.com/thesimpsons/index.html )features things like Treehouse Trivia, info about the toys and info on the exclusive drink. There is also news about Burger King planning a Simpsons promotion in November/December, nothing yet set for sure. Read the full story Here.
We also have a story about a recent interview Tony Hawk did. Hawk is supposed to be in a Season 14 episode of the show. "During Hawk's episode, Bart - no shabby boarder himself, judging by the opening credits - is emancipated from his parents. He winds up moving into an apartment complex where the pro skateboarder lives. "He wants to be a roadie and come on tour, and his dad has to sort of win him back from me," Hawk said." The boarder is quick to cite working on "The Simpsons" as one of the coolest benefits of his growing fame. You can read the full story and interview by clicking Here.
Also released is the Courtroom Environment. This is once again the first of the sets which will only be released as single sets since Playmates has decided to not release two at a time anymore. Also keep in mind that with this set there will be the B-Sharp Apu Mail-In Offer. As availability of these items becomes avialable in stores we will keep you informed. As of now the Series 10 figures and Playsets are currently being shipped so keep an eye out for those.

Hey collectors, run don't walk to your local KB Toys to get the newly released Homer and Krusty Bobble Heads. These are exclusive to KB Toys and are the first in the series. They have already hit in the west coast and have sold out almost everywhere. KB did tell us that they expect more than 1 wave of shipments of the bobbleheads so don't worry if you can't find it the first time around. They don't seem to be on the kbtoys.com website but neither were the Bongo figures when they first came out, so who knows. Happy hunting.
Hey fans, a new product is currently being promoted by Topps, the card company. The Ad for the item was recently released shows that the gum comes with either foil stickers and small stickers or larger stickers (50 designs total) and also shows that on the back of each sticker are things like puzzles, jokes, pranks, etc. This is not the first time Topps is releasing something related to the Simpsons with gum since they released the very first 1990 card packs with small sticks of gum in them along with a sticker. Also, this is not the first time there has been a Simpsons Gum pack released since also in 1990 there was a 20th Century Fox licensed 40 pack of Simpsons gum released. It is good to see some new packs come out after such a long time especially since other countries already carry such items like Simpsons gum, they are scheduled to be out in February 2003.
