NANCY DREW ACTION FIGURES - For the First time Ever!


NANCY DREW ACTION FIGURES!

For the first time ever, you'll have the opportunity to collect classic and vintage style Nancy Drew action figures based on the classic Nancy Drew books everyone loves. Screenrant has a few more details about the launch to come shortly - you can see the Nancy Drew Old Clock figure and the awesome Crowley Clock featured on the book cover plus the screwdriver Nancy used to open the clock in the photos in this blog.

For some time, I have been consultant on this amazing project to bring to the fans action figures of classic Nancy Drew! I'm so - so - so excited about the launch that's to come soon on Kickstarter!

To clue you in, back in 2008, when we held our Nancy Drew Convention that year in Bird-in-Hand, PA for our "Witch Tree Symbol" theme, a family joined us which included Doc Wyatt whose wife Laura was a Nancy Drew fan. Together with his friend Gavin Hignight, they formed a toy company in recent years called Wandering Planet Toys and recently did a very successful launch of action figures based on the old TV series, The Prisoner. When deciding to do another launch, they settled on Nancy Drew and reached out to me to consult as they chose books to base the figures on, how to get Nancy's look just right, what accessories from those books to use, etc.

The figures are fantastic, and the packaging is just as Sleuthtacular too! They officially licensed with Simon and Schuster and got the ball rolling on the creation and production side. Now months later they are ready to launch the line and so I wanted to share the news and get you all very excited for the coming official launch! Right now, if you're interested, you can sign up with your e-mail so they can let you know when it officially launches and when pre-orders through Kickstarter begin. There will be some pretty rad incentives too!
