I've got to say, for me this is Thunderbean's most exciting release in a long time, Steve. I'm really looking forward to this set!

Are there any bonuses or anything you can tell us about at this stage (without spoiling all the surprises)?

Love the screen captures and clips! Paypal $ sent, and can't wait for the release. With Willie in the can, can SCRAPPY be far behind??

The extras will just be icing on the cake. With what we've seen so far, this looks to be one spectacular set!

Steve,

Could you take a second from your hard work at Thunderbean and alert us when you think this release will be going out the door? Haven't really heard about this release in awhile.

From Thunderbean's Facebook, posted Thursday afternoon:

ๅผ•็”จ:

The Willie Whopper set just rounded the excellent corner of being out of my hands and now ready to go to replication. Snafu is a step behind it, but so close! I'm excited for everyone to finally see these sets, and so grateful to be able to work with and release these great shorts! Hold tight everyone!

Thanks to everyone that pre-ordered. Those are getting packed- and I hope they'll all be out the door this week. The glasses for the pre-order have not arrived yet, so they will go separate.

Here is WIllie on Amazon:

I got my set yesterday - Steve did a great job and the 2 2 strip color toons are stunning - I really gives a really good idea how they must have looked in their original release, much better than any one would have expected judging on what we have seen in the past.

Another home run release. Truly stunning. The "color" cartoons are hall of famers. Sigh. Just wish the copyright owners of the Fleisher cartons and MGM would just "cut bait" and hand it all over to Steve and the gang and say "Here you go....we know WE'RE never going to do them as well-or with as much care-as you. Have a ball."
