Tron Deluxe Figures Series 1 by Diamond Select Toys – Toyark Photo Shoot

Posted on February 6, 2020 at 3:38 pm by Joe Moore under Disney Toy News, Random Photo Shoot

Released in 1982, Disney’s Tron was one of the first major Hollywood films to rely on computer generated imagery (CGI) for its special effects. It was a film that was ahead of its time, so much so that the Academy Awards refused to acknowledge the films accomplishments, saying that using computers was cheating. The film never quite found the box office audience Disney was hoping for, but it became a cult favorite on home video.

The film followed a group of computer programmers looking to prove that a high ranking executive was stealing ideas from Kevin Flynn. Flynn, a genius programmer, created many of the games his company, Encom, was known for. When he crosses Encom’s growing AI program, the Master Control Program (MCP), Flynn is digitized, and sucked into the unknown digital world. There, Programs roam the digital landscape, performing the tasks their Users designed them to do. But the MCP has begun a hostile takeover, absorbing programs for his own gain, and forcing many others to fight in a game grid based on the real world video games that Flynn designed. The MCP uses the villainous Sark to do his bidding, running the games and rounding up programs to fight. When Flynn meets Tron and his friends, they devise a plan to take down the MCP, and return Flynn to the real world before he derezzed and lost forever.

The film has had a few toys and collectibles over the years. However, the new line of 7″ scale action figures by Diamond Select Toys may just be the best yet. Series 1 consists of Tron, Kevin Flynn (Infiltrator), and Sark. A Walgreens exclusive assortment is also available, which features the three figures with less accessories. However, it’s only via Walgreens that fans can find the blue version of Flynn. Our friends at diamond Select Toys have sent along the Tron Deluxe Series 1 Figures, and I managed to find a Blue Flynn in the wild. After the jump, check out my thoughts on the new collectibles, as well as a full photo gallery.

Tron Deluxe Figures Series 1 Final Packaging Photos by Diamond Select Toys

Posted on January 21, 2020 at 9:19 am by Joe Moore under Disney Toy News

New final in-packaging photos have been released by Diamond Select Toys for their upcoming Tron Series 1 Deluxe Figures. Each figure is packed on blister card packaging. The assortment includes Tron, Sark, and Infiltrator Kevin Flynn. The 7″ scale figures each feature interchangeable hands, identity discs, and identity discs with effects. The figure have about 16 points of articulation each.

Originally, the figures were going to be part of the “Select” figure line, and were going to include pieces to build a Recognizer vehicle from the movie. Sadly, they were unable to get that to work out. However, the loss of the Recognizer pieces did result in the price per figure being lowered to $20 each. The Tron Series 1 Figures are due for release in February. See the new packaging images after the jump.
