Hey fans, some cool new updates heading your way. First off we have the news that the "Life in the Fast Lane" exclusive and the TRU THOH 3 Exclsuives are out in some stores. As usual these will fly quickly off the shelves (and probably quicker onto Ebay) so get yours while they last in the stores. Remember that the first TRU Exclusive THOH is now worth over $100, woohoo!
A new first looks for you all of the New Years 2003 Environment. This playset was rumored to be cancelled on and off even during the time that Amazon.com was taking pre-orders for it. It's pretty safe to say that it WILL be released as scheduled but since noone has actually gotten one in hand, you never know; we hope for the best. Anyways, hit those stores and we'll keep sending you those updates.
Hey again fellow fans, some small news on a brand new item released by the good people at Rix. Rix are the ones that have produced most of the Tin products such as the coasters, trashcan and dartboard that we've already seen. Now comes the new Simpsons Tin Dinner Tray Table. Features four different scenes of Homer on the couch and should be great to use when watching the Simpsons while eating dinner in the living room. You can find more Rix Simpson products by visiting their website.
Ok, so the GI Joe's are gonna have the Kung Fu grip back, so what, we have some new T-Shirts from the good people at Hot Topic (www.hottopic.com); for you guys and glas! They actually have a couple of cool little Simpson things like sweat bands and air freshners. Other than that we are working on making the Media section of this site come to life finally, we'll keep you updated more on that.
It's time to get back to hitting the books but it's not all that bad. The new awaited Cross Over Futurama/Simpsons 2-book comic book is out. This is only the first book of the 2 where the second one is due out in December.
Featured on the back of 25-page comic is the cover of the soon to be released Beyond Forever Simpsons Guide. This is the 3rd book in the guides' series; the first was The Simpsons Guide then came the Simpsons Guide Forever. This book will be available shortly.
Hey fans, some news and rumors for you this weekend. First off, Belly Washers which sell their cooler drinks in such places as 7-11 and AM/PM have released images of the new Simpson Belly Washers. We did mention this drink a few months ago. You can find more information and take a closer look at these drink at their website located Here.
In the news of toys there are a few rumors rolling around. About 2 weeks ago Amazon took the liberty of posting pre-orders for the THOH3, New Years and Main Street sets. These pre-order pages were quickly taken day after 1-2 days. Even though we are pretty sure the THOH3 and Main Street is still on schedule to be released, it looks like the New Years set MIGHT be put on hold. We'll keep you updated as more information rolls out of Playmates Toys.
Finally, for all you collectors get your hands on a Simpsons production cell while they last. It has been officially announced that starting with Season 14 the show will NOT be done with paint and cels but with computers digitally. This will save time on production on episode and quality will most likely stay the same, if not be better. Right now real Simpson production cels go for anywhere between $300-$700, grab them now as this may raise the price.
Marz Distribution has released a series of prototype images and sketches for upcoming Simpson products. These include the Series 11 and 12 sets, the upcoming Bobble Heads, the Series 3 in the Faces of Springfield and the Simpsons Boppers.

With the success of last year's release of Halloween Toys, Burger King is ready to go one more time with a line of 10 new ones. The set will be called Simpson's Creepy Classics. These won't light up like last years but the screen located near the character does switch images with a push of a button. The full series is scheduled to come out late Septemeber - early October.
Hey beer drinkers, as many of you know there are already 2 sets of coasters that have been released which feature our favorite characters on them. We just recently got these new ones as well. The set features 2 coasters but these aren't your regular coasters. When an object is placed on top of the coaster, it talks! The coasters automatically say "MmMmmMMm..Beer". These are a great and fun to have, get yours at your local Suncoast.
Well if you don't already own it, then go out and get it. We're talking about the 4-DVD Season 2 Simpsons Set. Stores are selling out them fast even with the price ranging from $31-$50. With this being one of the Top 10 DVD sold this year there are a few items out there now which feature the front cover art of the DVD set. As pictured, you can now pick up a hat, frosty mug and the newest addition to the Simpsons Tin Lunchboxes which all 3 feature the cover art. The hat and frusty mug have been on the market for a little bit of time already but the lunchbox was just released.
