Ok Wheat, the suspense is driving me mad!! Since we can't see what the SDCC exclusive is, can we at least know what it is or get a hint? Is it a toy? Is it a , or a , or maybe a ?
All the big toy companies list and show their SDCC exclusives before the show, hopefully Spin Masters will also.

I know Mindstyle is offering a Tron exclusive. See here: http://www.mindstyle.com/blog/?p=2067I just want to know if the Spin Masters exclusive is a toy?

You know what I (and I'm certain the majority of us) would REALLY like to see in the toy line? New toys from the original. Because really, I NEED an old tank and a reco displayed over my TV with my Enterprise and Optimus Prime. And I can't justify the costs for importing those kubrick ones.

Seriously, old school vehicles FTW.

Sorry, I have to disagree Rusty

when Spin Master makes awesome, ingeneous toys like these:

Yeah I think the Tron Legacy licence is in good hands IMO.

I've noticed an increase in old movie stuff and the NECA re-issue figures/bikes on ebay. (People cashing in on the current flurry of excitement) And yeah, the bikes are very expensive. I'm bidding on a couple of little things - not telling you what, I don't want you to outbid me! - but a companion series of original TRON toys would be great. Just like the Transformers Universe and Movie lines running in parallel.

Current wishlist:

Glowing action figures of main characters (old and new)
Lightcycles (old and new)
Glowing disc
Wii based action involving a Mario Kart wheel in a TRON stylee
Oh, and the film should be good too!

I'd like to see a series of Revoltech T:L toys, personally.

Nothing they have done up to this point gives me any level of confidence that they will be able to produce quality figures or vehicles for the line that don't look childish. From browsing their site they look to be a company with toys geared towards the VERY, very young. I am worried that if we do see toys from them that they are going to be goofy as hell looking. Would have much rather seen someone like Hasbro or Neca get the job. (I would say Mattel but after the way they screwed up the Dark Knight and Ghostbusters figures making them Mattycollector.com exclusives I wouldn't want them anywhere NEAR anything else I like.)

I'd love to post here to say I think we're doing alright with the toys. its true, Spinmaster is traditionally a 'creative play' type toy company with craft-type brands like Moonsand etc, but the good news is they opened up an office in Los Angeles 3 years ago that deals almost exclusively with entertainment properties. Out here at my office we've done Bakugan, Stormhawks (they were good figures...RIP), The Last Airbender, How to Train Your Dragon, and now Tron: Legacy as well as a lot of quality non-figure brands that might surprise you. And, we have some AWESOME and experienced action figure designers, who are also toy geeks and hardcore collectors. We're the guys spending hundreds of dollars at Comic Con on awesome stuff because we're crazy and we care about things like action figures. We're also the guys who go to Target (straight to the toy aisle) and Toys R Us 3 or 4 times a week during lunch to check out the new Iron Man figures and Transformers.

That being said, we're still at your mercy if you think the toys suck. I'm probably the first person you can point your finger at (be it index or middle finger), as I am the 'lead designer' on the line, although not really the most powerful. Most (all?) of us are really excited to see these toys on the shelves and to get the opinions of hardcore fans such as yourselves. Even the most critical and nerdiest of my toy collecting, toy designing peers are telling me the Tron toys look "freakin' awesome" and that they "need to have all of it."

Anyway, sorry if I sound like a company-man, I just want you to feel some sort of reassurance that the toys are being VERY well received by my bosses, their bosses, Disney, and the retailers, and that includes a decent amount of scrutiny by the toy geeks in each of those groups. In a sense, the Spinmaster most of you are familiar with is NOT quite the same Spinmaster working on the Tron products. Same company, different office. Not that I have anything against the 'other office' hahwhere to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Hasbro - you can have that for nothing, just send me one when they're made.... If they make one we should all send you a dollar! I don't usually like the Transformers crossovers but in this case it would totally work! I'm a complete Transformers geek.

Glad someone agrees. Realistically I guess Hasbro would have rights issues that stop it. If only we knew someone who worked in toy design for a company that has the rights and could design a figure that converts (not transforms - lawyers) to light cycle........

Wheatking - the disc's in your court

btw, I hope you guys put twice as many Tron toys on the shelves as you did bakugon..no offense but I can't tell you how annoyed i got at seeing bakugon toys around every corner hogging almost an entire ailse at every store that sold toys..espeically toys r us..they had like a whole ailse of baugon toys and then boxes and boxes of unopened shipments just sitting on the top of 3-5 different ailses i the store!
