The Elvis Costello/Simpsons action figure
John Foyle posted this in the "Relatively Insignificant EC Stuff" thread, and that was a HUGE MISTAKE, because this is without question the most significant EC news ever.

Looks like the release date is October.
These are so cool. Went out to Toys R Us during lunch and got me a Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey, and John Entwistle.

Re: The Elvis Costello/Simpsons action figure
Will this be available outside of the USA, I wonder? I don't see any of this stuff listed on the Toys'R'Us site in Australia...
EDIT: Looks like eBay will be the only option for us non-Murricans

Re: The Elvis Costello/Simpsons action figure
I just googled "Simpsons figure Elvis Costello" and it came up with Zavvi.com saying that you could pre-order it with free UK delivery for only £14.99 !...............sounds too good to be true !

As they always say........if it sounds too good to be true, it is !
Zavvi now saying "release date June 6 2015" ! Must be when they are getting a shipment over.
So..........all we need is one of us with a really good contact the other side of the pond to do a bulk order for us, ship them over, and we can all split the postage etc.......................what do you think ?
Any ideas anyone ?

Re: The Elvis Costello/Simpsons action figure
I think I can live without it until June!
I like that it's not suitable for children under 3 but the other label says aged 14+
