After many false starts and the demise of Living Toyz, Elfquest action figures will finally reach stores this September.  The good, bad, and even the ugly denizens of the cartoon universe created by Wendy and Richard Pini will finally be available to long suffering Elfquest fans.  Evil Genius Toys, which acquired the Elfquest license from Living Toyz, has done an excellent job of selling Elfquest figures into the mass market where they will be carried by Toys R Us, Musicland, Electronic Boutique, and Babbages.  Diamond Comic Distributors will be distributing the Elfquest toys to independent specialty stores.

 

The first series of Elfquest toys, which was sculpted by Art Asylum, includes Princess Leetah, a Cutter/Night Runner 2-pack, the winged Tyldak, and Picknose the Troll.  The second series of figures, sculpted by SOTA Sculpture and Design, includes Skywise, Rayek, Madcoil, and Guttlekraw.   SOTA also sculpted the third series of Elfquest figures which will include Strongbow the archer, Two-Edge the mad Troll, and the evil Winnowill.
