FOUR HORSEMEN ANNOUNCE PLANS FOR SAN DIEGO COMIC CON 2008

July 2008 - It's only about 48 hours until Preview Night begins for San Diego Comic Con 2008, and the guys at Four Horsemen Toy Design want you to pay them a visit at the big show.

The Four Horsemen will again be sharing a booth at Comic Con with their old pals at AFX (http://www.ActionFigureXpress.com). Booth number 4045 will be the place to go to buy exclusive Four Horsemen action figures, get a look at some never before seen Seventh Kingdom 2-up paint-masters, and to see the remaining variant figures for the main bad guy from their popular Gothitropolis property, Scarabus!

Speaking of Scarabus and his dominion of Gothitropolis, three of his minute minions, the Time Keepers will be on hand and up for sale at booth #4045.

Time Keepers: Baraeth, Nybbaz and Aestorath stand at just over three inches tall, and are packaged in a stunningly decorated window box. Each wields their own menacing Chrono-Hammer, and sports 7 points of articulation (ball-jointed head, ball-jointed shoulders, swivel wrists, a mid-torso "ab-crunch," and a swivel waist).

You can pick up each of the Time Keepers at the Four Horsemen's booth for $10.00 each or a mere $25.00 for the set of all three!

The Four Horsemen will also be appearing on various panels and signings for both Mattel and Action Figure Times throughout the weekend. The schedule of various panels is listed below, so be sure to mark your calendars and make sure you don't miss out!

Last, don't forget to stop by Mattel's booth early to make sure you pick up both the DC Universe Classics Lobo figure ($25.00), and the Masters of the Universe Classics: King Grayskull figure ($30.00)! Both figures are designed and created by the Four Horsemen for Mattel, so you'll certainly want to come by during one of the Mattel/Four Horsemen signings (listed below) to get all four signatures!
