Shocker Toys announces a further change to indie comic figure line

Buffalo NY, Dec 11th 2006 - It is with regret and extreme frustration that Shocker Toys announces a further change to Indie Spotlight series 1.  The premiere of this line will now include Rob Schrab’s Scud the Disposable Assasin, Terry Moore’s Katchoo of Strangers in Paradise, Jimmy Valentino’s ShadowHawk and David Mack’s Kabuki.  

Company head Geoff Beckett remarked "We understand that this is the second time we’ve had to change this lineup and people have even suggested we are making plans without contracts in place.  This is simply not the case.  Shocker Toys had hoped to create an action figure line that celebrated the spirit of independent comics, working closely with the creators of each comic to make the figure fans always wanted.
Unfortunately, sometimes money becomes more important than honoring a contract.  This business can be as cut throat as any other."

 Shocker Toys will continue to develop the 6 inch Indie Spotlight action figure series alongside our GWAR 7 inch figure series and the customizable and licensed Shockinis block figure lines into 2007.  We look for the support of toy and comic fans to help us spread the word on our projects and help us to make the best toys we possibly can.  Be sure to look for us at Toyfair 2007!
