12.05.2010 - Tron Legacy is twelve days away and look what the start of the holiday season has brought us. With the movie's upcoming release the merchandise and other related tie-up to the movie is starting to roll over retail stores.

Disney's agressive marketing machine is in full swing and yes, it's the Tron Legacy toys that has been sighted at one of the major retail stores in Metro Manila that produced the main toyline by Spin Masters.

Another movie themed toy line based on the franchise will surely fly off the toy shelves...



Initially, the first wave of Core Figures, vehicles, and playset (hopefully) is not a complete as sighted that is the latest Tron toys have been put on their shelves. Most notable are the 3.75/4-inch or 1:18 scale action figures featuring light-up gimmick is the main reason why this is going to be popular. The action figures that were sgithed are Kevin Flynn, Clu, Clu's Sentry, and Sam Flynn going for a retail price at PhP 499.75 pesos (roughly $10.00 US) each seems good enough that they have all light-up features.



The only other product that was sighted was a vehicle for this scale is for the Kevin Flynn's action figure with the classic Light Cycle, which is going for PhP 999.00 pesos (roughly $20.00 US). There is also the 8 inch figures as well as the 2 inch non-poseable figures. Not to forget the Hot Wheels size vehicles, which includes the Light Runner and the Light Cycles of the characters that is also making an appearance in the movie based on the last trailer before its official release date.
