Tower Records Offers More Cool Figure Exclusives

mac_tower_hm2kjulie.jpg - 12154 BytesTower Records continues to secure cool new exclusive products for sale in the popular music and entertainment chain.

Tower is offering the Wizard World 2000 Exclusive Colbalt Platinum Julie figure from the Heavy Metal FAKK 2 line. Tower produced this exclusive figure with Moore Action Collectibles just for the convention in Chicago. There were only 1,000 units produced and to add as an extra feature, Julie Strain autographed each figure.

Tower has a limited stock left of the figure, and may use that inventory at a special release party in October. Tower is currently working on plans to have Strain appear at the Sunset Blvd. location in October to promote both the release of Heavy Metal 2000 on DVD and the unveiling of the Tower Records Exclusive Heavy Metal 2000 4-pack. This set includes action figures of Julie, Holyland Julie, Lord Tyler (available only in this set or an exclusive 2-pack to be offered later) and Zeek. Each figure will include a base and accessories. Details on the October event should be finalized by the end of September, so be sure to watch RTM for further details.

Tower is also working on producing a limited run of MAC's Julie Strain as Vampirella action figure for release at the Sunset Blvd. event. The figure will be a short run of less than 1000 units, but will be produced later in joint partnership between Tower Records and Fandom.com. In November, Tower will release it's exclusive Futurama Gift Set, which will include all four figures from Moore Action Collectibles (Fry, Leela, Bender and the Express Ship) plus some possible surprises.

Also available exclusively at Tower Records in the Rocky Horror Picture Show Figure Set from Vital Toys. The set includes 3 figures: Frank N Furter (with a newly sculpted open mouth head), Riff Raff and Columbia. The set currently retails for only $29.99, limited to less than 5,000 sets and is available at every Tower Records location.
