    Next Show?

    If you are asking in reference to Palisades (since it is in this Action Figures section...), I think we are done for the year. Certainly as far as shows with exclusives. We MAY be doing a comic show here in Baltimore in October, but will not be doing a show exclusive for that one. Probably the...

    Palisades' website

    Yeah. We are having host issues. The current host we use is borderline reliable. Anybody a web expert here who wants to work on our site? Drop us a line! As for the www, I was not aware of that. I'll blame it on our host as they are responsible for the site being down for extended periods of...

    Thanks everyone for San Diego

    Thanks to everyone who came by the booth in San Diego to see us! We are extremely tired (5th show for me since May! Plus, our office move, plus a 10 month old baby at home!). All in all, a long summer, but well worth it. We had a great time at the show and tried to spend time with everyone. Hope...

    San Diego Comic Con Volunteers Wanted!

    We used to do the Toronto show, but the promoter treated us so poorly that we have given it up. Shame, too, as it was one of the most enjoyable shows on our schedule. We had absolute nightmares the 2 times that we went. Booth didn't get through customs, hotel reservations wacko, freight costs...

    The Muppets Figures Have Problems!

    I think the key to this statement is "as long as they make great toys/figures." We don't expect you to buy every figure if they suck. It's our job to make them worth getting in the first place. Just thought I'd throw that out there since it hadn't been mentioned previously. MH

    I have only one comment on Luke's essay: "Britney Spears without the boobs." Oh, man, you have just opened the door for mass hysteria in our office! MH

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    surprisingly, not many retailers bought into the lunchbox program. You'll have to try your local comics shop. We should have our cart working this week (cross fingers), so you can check there too MH

    The Collector's Club...

    Hey everyone. Thanks for the thoughts on the club. I think there are a couple of factors that are holding us up from just jumping in full force on it right now: 1. We are short staffed right now and I'm afraid to start a club and have crummy service. The club really needs to be more than just...

    The campaign for show exclusives continues...

    The plan would be to sell the exclusive for the same price that we sell them at teh shows. Typically, $15 each. I know, a bit more than the regular figures, but the costs are higher. THere would be a S&H fee as well. We will let our plans be known (hopefullly) BEFORE we go to Chicago, July...

    Series 1 Arrives: When and Where

    Wizard informed me that shipments were leaving their Congers, NY facility starting Monday (yesterday). Depending on where you are, you should get in the next week or less. :D

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Answering the questoin about limits on Vanishing Cream Beaker: We don't have a solid plan yet, but a limit will be in effect. Why? If we say no limit, then the "scalpers" can buy 100 pieces and jack up the price. We do understand that some people want two for themselves and may be on a...

    Muppet Figures in Australia?

    We have a wholesale distributor there. Croftminster. Their website is http://www.croftminster.com.au/ I would suggest contacting them. MH

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Well, he is misinformed, sort of. We do not have a blanket worldwide license, but we have put on distributors in territories all over. We have several distributors in Europe (none specifically in Sweden, though). I don't know how to advise you further, but I can assure you that the goods...

    It's happened again!

    I also suspect that since EB has a large amount of items that have official street dates (like video games and DVDs), that their system has been built to assign a date to every item. If you look at their Series 2 preorders, they have dates assigned as well. We don't put out an official in-store...
