Disney Tron: San Diego Comic Con
Looks like a pretty nice updating-sequel for TRON – especially since Jeff Bridges is in it – he’s usually prety good about not just showing up for a paycheck …
You can check out the new TRON Trailer in HD here.

Or in other resolutions above …
And the toys all look pretty amazing …
The figures come in three scales and they all light up in some manner …
The actual ones don’t require a thether but are battery operated …
But the diecast cars and cycles are all great …
Great detailing …
And they all light up in some manner also …
And the wheels ALL ROLL – they would be nice as static displays but they are real diecasts. The appropriate figures also fit inside.
And what’s the fun of them without a launcher?
By the way, yep, carrying case for the smaller scale …
Plus other toys …
pew-pew and you can take someone’s eye out …
And lots of apparel …
And don’t throw this with your iPhone in it …
Of coutrse, at the SD Comic Con, it was a huge event …
The cool arcade style old school action fig …
But Disney went all out – recreating Flynn’s arcade …
Nicely done …
And in SD, if you leave your hotel room unlocked, a party breaks out …
And here’s an insult that only works at SDCC or the OracleWorld Conference …
Yea, for you, it is a long walk to the CPU.
Cindy Morgan avoiding temptation to be trapped into the Tron innards … again.
Though some people look a little better in latex, spandex and tight-sized …

TRON: LEGACY (In Disney Digital 3D™ and IMAX® 3D)
U.S. Release Date: December 17, 2010
Cast: Jeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde, Bruce Boxleitner, James Frain, Beau Garrett and Michael Sheen
“TRON: Legacy” is a 3D high-tech adventure set in a digital world that’s unlike anything ever captured on the big screen. Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), a rebellious 27-year-old, is haunted by the mysterious disappearance of his father Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), a man once known as the world’s leading video-game developer. When Sam investigates a strange signal sent from the old Flynn’s Arcade—a signal that could only come from his father—he finds himself pulled into a digital world where Kevin has been trapped for 20 years. With the help of the fearless warrior Quorra (Olivia Wilde), father and son embark on a life-or-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe—a universe created by Kevin himself that has become far more advanced with never-before-imagined vehicles, weapons, landscapes and a ruthless villain who will stop at nothing to prevent their escape. Presented in Disney Digital 3D™ and scored by Grammy Award®-winning electronic music duo Daft Punk.
still haven’t seen the original, just bits and pieces. =/
loved the arcade game though.
and the shoes are cool! reminds me of something out of Back to the future II
may have to steal some of the lights out of these figures, and put em inside the Tunerz.
“bits and pieces” or “bytes and pixels”? 🙂
Holy cow! This makes me wanna see the movie more!
Wow, this is going to be great. Tron was the first movie my bro’ took me too – fond memory! I’ve gotta relate to you horrible memories of recreating light disc battles with plastic frisbees- let’s just say there was blood. Kids don’t try this stuff at home…
I just recorded TRON the other night on our Dish Network DVR…..my wife’s never seen the movie, so now she can see it in HD before the new one releases!
Should those diecasts prove successful, can we count on them to go Lenticular in 2013?
Can’t wait for this to come out. I remember many summer evenings playing that stand up Tron console… the light cycle game was of course my favorite!
