AT COMIC-CON INTERNATIONAL 2011

WITH EXCITING HOME ENTERTAINMENT PRODUCT LINES, RENOWNED POP CULTURE BRANDS, AND A SPECIAL PANEL PRESENTATION CELEBRATING THE AMAZING HISTORY OF THE TRANSFORMERS ANIMATED SERIES ON TELEVISION AND IN-HOME ENTERTAINMENT

Shout! Factory returns to Comic-Con International San Diego 2011 with an engaging lineup featuring a special panel discussion, showcasing upcoming and current home entertainment juggernauts, autograph signings, special media appearances, Comic-Con exclusives, daily prize sweepstakes and interactive fan activities at the Shout! Factory booth (#4248, on the main convention floor). Fan-favorite filmmakers/producers and stars scheduled to attend include: filmmaker Joe Dante (Trailers from Hell, Piranha, Gremlins), Sybil Danning (Battle Beyond the Stars, Chained Heat, Hercules), John Saxon (Battle Beyond the Stars, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Enter the Dragon), and filmmaker/producer Elizabeth Stanley (Trailers from Hell, The Dark Path Chronicles, Splatter), among other notables.

Epic battles between the heroic AUTOBOTS and the villainous DECEPTICONS from Hasbro’s iconic pop culture series The TRANSFORMERS have entertained multiple generations of fans for decades. Loyal fans and Comic-Con attendees will not want to miss the special panel Evolution of TRANSFORMERS on Friday, July 22 at 5:30 PM (Room 8). Presented by Shout! Factory, in collaboration with Hasbro, Inc., this panel will travel from the earliest TRANSFORMERS G1 crash-landing on Earth to the Headmasters’ evolution in Japan to the beastly battles and arrive at the modern day. It is a look at The TRANSFORMERS’ TV/DVD journeys, including elements consistent throughout and opposing forces in TRANSFORMERS lore. Character development, weaponry and weaknesses — all this and then some from TRANSFORMERS: More Than Meets The Eye, the Headmasters/Super-God Masterforce/Victory and Beast Wars are examined. Moderated by Matt Proulx (Hasbro), panelists include Brian Ward (Shout! Factory) and members of the Hasbro team. This will provide a users’ guide to all the history you need to start your fan obsession and some long-held secrets valuable to those fans already entrenched.

Shout! Factory will have a must-visit booth (#4248), stylized with a thematic backdrop on the main convention floor. The booth will showcase a variety of upcoming and current home entertainment product lines. Filmmakers, stars and surprised special VIP guests will be on-hand at the Shout! Factory booth for autograph signings, daily prize sweepstakes, fan interactive activities and more! Exclusive items available as gift-with-purchase on several exciting DVD titles.
