New Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure Action Figures are coming from a company called Incendium Online. The figures debuted via io9, and are now up for pre-order. The 5″ tall figures are meant to be throwbacks to the classic toy line from Kenner, but with a more modern look to them. The figures come packaged on classic style card backs. They are offering figures based on Bill S. Preston and Ted “Theodore” Logan, with each including a guitar accessory. As of right now, there’s no word on how much articulation these will have. Only 3D renders of the figures are shown in the packaging mock ups. UPDATE: Incendium Online confirmed to us these will have roughly 10 points of articulation and further Bill and Ted characters will be announced soon.

The figures can be pre-ordered Here. They are priced at $29.99 each. they are due for release this Summer. Click the headlien of the story for a closer look at the preview images.
