[HR][/HR]San Diego Comic-Con coverage brought to you by [URL="http://www.collectinsure.com/"][B]Collectibles Insurance[/B][/URL], [B][URL="http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/default.aspx"]Big Bad Toy Store[/URL][/B], [B][URL="http://www.yesanimation.com/"]Sekaido[/URL][/B], and [B][URL="http://www.monkeydepot.com/Default.asp?Redirected=Y"]Monkey Depot[/URL][/B].

[HR][/HR]Comic-Con in recent years has become a powerful tool in promoting Hollywood's hottest movies. This year proved no different with films like [I]Saw 3D[/I], [I]The Expendables[/I] and [I]Tron Legacy[/I] reeling in fans with promotional freebies, actor signings and elaborate booth displays. [B]Scott Pilgrim vs. the World[/B] didn't offer any cool freebies, but it quickly joined the "Big Three" as a hot topic courtesy of its entertaining panel and advance screening. I missed both, but Scott Pilgrim fan excitement at Comic-Con was extremely contagious. Edgar Wright's adaptation of the cult-classic comic book series has me curious more than ever. Count me there for its theatrical opening August 13th.

While I'm out of the Scott Pilgrim loop (for now), [B]Mezco Toys[/B] is in the know. On display at their Comic-Con booth was a variety of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World collectibles to feed the hungry fan-obsessed masses. Previously revealed 4" and 8" plush dolls of Scott Pilgrim and Ramona Flowers were shown, the duo tiding collectors over this August. A surprise reveal was a pair of Scott Pilgrim action figures. The 6" tall comic-accurate toys depicted the love-torn hero wielding a sword and another rocking out on bass guitar.

Not too shabby for promoting a movie. Not even [I]The Expendables[/I] had action figures to show...
