Diamond Select Toys and Collectibles (DST) is
excited to announce plans to once again
participate in the annual Blood Drive at this
year's San Diego Comic-Con! To emphasize the
importance of giving blood, Diamond Select will
be donating a limited edition exclusive
Battlestar Galactica Season 3 Chief Tyrol figure
as a giveaway for participating donors!
Chief Tyrol has been featured on Sci-Fi's
Battlestar Galactica since 2003 and remains a
fan-favorite character. The figure has been
limited to 750 pieces, and will only be
available through the blood drive – they will
not be on sale or given away elsewhere.
"After the last three years' extremely
successful campaigns, we're delighted to once
again be contributing to the Robert A Heinlein
Blood Drive," said Chuck Terceira, Director of
Diamond Select Toys. "They've broken three
consecutive records, so we're hoping for even
more blood to be donated this year!"
In its 31st year, the Robert A. Heinlein Blood
Drive has long been a San Diego Comic-Con
staple. After science-fiction writer Robert A.
Heinlein was ill, he needed several pints of a
rare blood type. Following the illness, Heinlein
created a personal rule that he would only
attend conventions and sign autographs for those
that donated blood. This started the Robert A.
Heinlein Blood Drive at San Diego Comic-Con in
the early 1970's. Last year's 847 pints was the
most blood collected at the drive in ten years,
thanks in part to Diamond Select Toys' continued
support and promotional action figures.
"We are pleased to have Diamond Select on board
to support the Blood Drive. Their donation of
such a limited edition collectible will
certainly help the awareness and success of the
annual event," remarked Comic-Con Director of
Marketing and Public Relations, David Glanzer.
To register for the Blood Drive, stop by the
Blood Drive booth at Comic-Con or visit the
Comic-Con website, www.comic-con.org, for
additional instructions and information.

I just received an email
from Aaron to say that both he and Tahmoh will
not be at
The Wrath of Con
event this weekend.
Below is a copy and paste of Aaron's message
.....
I
cancelled wrath. I have to work, as does tahmoh. We
agreed to wrath before there was a strike & we
thought there would be no problem as the show would
be done in March. we are in the last days of
shooting & they are not officially clearing anyone
for anything. I would have loved to go & my
apologies to all the fans who were hoping to see me
on the weekend.
The above link is for part one of the comic book
which is based on the film. If you do not want to
spoil yourself on the film, do not read it. I read
the movie script back in May of 2007 and really
regret doing so. But for those of you that want to
see what comic book "Sam the Butcher" looks like
(which looks NOTHING like Aaron), here's some screen
caps with the dialogue removed.
