Acme Archives X FORCE FRIDAY
Hey there everyone! It's been a busy, and crazy last few weeks. Ramping down from Comic Con, and D-23, we have a few more scheduled shows left this year. Come see us at Salt Lake City Comic Con (September 24-26th), and Stan Lee's Comikazee (October 30-November 1st)!
No on to business. What is #ForceFriday some of you may be asking? It's the first day they allowed licensee's to release product for the new feature. We have all been working diligently and secretly to come up with fun and new products to showcase today and for the rest of the year. What does this mean to the Fans? A TON OF AWESOME PRODUCT FINALLY ABLE TO BE VIEWED STARTING TODAY. Hasbro released their Black Series figures from the new feature, to fans snatching them all up at toy stores last night at midnight. Brands like Funko, and even Sphero a bluetooth enabled BB8 Droid that can be controlled with an app on your phone. All the manufacturers have stepped up their game for one of the largest theatrical releases we've ever seen, STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS coming to theaters December 18th. So what has Acme been up to?
