Rocket USA, the company which is releasing the Krusty-In-The-Box and the Wind-Up Homer is also releaseing Simpsons Motion Clickers and Klit-It Clickers. The Burns one is an example of the Klit-It type and the Duff Beer one is an exmaple of the motion one. We suspect these items to be released around the same time as the Wind-Up Homer and to be fairly inexpensive novelty items.
Add Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger to the list of rock stars who have been Simpsons-ized. As part of the campaign to promote his latest solo album, Goddess In The Doorway, Jagger has provided his voice for a future episode of the popular animated Fox television show The Simpsons. Jagger reportedly recorded his parts last week, but the show's producers are keeping details of his involvement under wraps for the time being. The episode is expected to air during the February or May sweeps periods. - Simpson Folder
Wow! Just when you thought you had everything from the Simpsons, a new line of products are to be coming out. Some of these new Simpsons products in the works are: Four jigsaw puzzles that parody classic works of art (currently they only come on keychains and are really small puzzles), a full-size pinball machine from Stern Pinball, and a 16-inch model of the News Corp. racing sail boat that has a drawing of Bart Simpson just above the rudder.
Pictures of the puzzles are above.
Stern Pinball has confirmed that it plans to manufacturer a new, full-size arcade Simpsons pin ball machine to be released later this year in the United States.
"We won't have Simpsons for some time. I'm guessing six to eight months," a company spokesperson said, saying that Stern has no further details at this time.
The sailboat is also to be availble sometime later this year.
Good news for WoS Collectors. Playmates is rumored to be thinking of releasing the Main Street for WoS. As some may recall, Playmates drew back this release because it required so many chips and they did not see it "cost worthy". But, do to the persistance of collectors and the popular demand for the product, the company may be bringing it back. The new look (above) has some changes from the original but it's basically the same.
Rocket USA, the same people which are releasing the Wind-Up Homer and Jack-In-The-Box with Krusty are also now going to be handeling the domestic distributiong of the pewters made by Unique Concepts of England. These bar tools should be available to the public by the company in early to mid-February and our site hopes to have them available in our store.
