As we’ve said before, these are always great fun and completely worth the trip, so, if you’re in the area, don’t miss it!
More Dante & Randal Figures Info…
- We broke the story on this a few days ago, and now Zentertainment follows up with some more detail on this highly anticipated sequel set to the great Jay & Silent Bob figures:
Matt Wagner has revealed he will follow up his Jay & Silent Bob action figures with Dante and Randall. The GRAFFITI toys, based on the characters from Kevin Smith’s CLERKS, are expected to premiere at the big San Diego ComiCon this summer. Wagner tells ZEN that they are trying to include backdrop dioramas of their respected stores with the figures, and he recently met with Smith to discuss accessories (DANTE: cash register, milk jug, carton of NAILS cigarettes, hockey stick, and a fold-out banner reading “I Assure You — We’re Open!” RANDALL: cash register, slacker cap, “Back in 5 minutes” sign, salsa shark bowl, and an assortment of mini porno tapes.) Plans also call for GRAFFITI to release another set of JAY & SILENT BOB action figures, this time as they appear in CLERKS, along with corresponding accessories, such as a boombox.
