For now you can browse their online store for things like Ike for $15.99, and Officer Barbrady for only $12.99.

South Park Creator Trey Parker to be in Indie flick?
I got this article from Zuzu at mattntrey.com. When she asked me about it, I told her that I wasn't sure if it was true or not. This article is about an 18-year-old boy named Nick Giersdorf who is a director/creator of a movie that's been getting a lot of attention called "Small Change." Giersdorf has made some news before by getting together with some of his high school friends and saying a Salem cigarette ad, has a similarity to one for Microsoft's Xbox. So it would appeal to the younger generation.


The movie itself is about terrorist creating a virus that will kill 6 billion people. According to the article, Trey has a cameo appearance as the leading character's best friend, Bill. If you would like to read the whole article, please click here. Once again, I do not know if this story is accurate, once I find out I will post it.

Team America does it Old School
Looks like Matt and Trey are going to be taking us back in time when it comes to the new project they're working on called "Team America", the spoof of an old tv series and buddy cop movies. I've been told that they wont be using any kind of computer help, that it's going to be all marionettes. Sounds cool to me, I'm looking forward to it. I hope they make it super cheese ball, just like the show. News is that Matt and Trey will most likely be doing the voices themselves. Still no news on the story, or when it's going to be released. Once we get that information, we will post it.

Very Special thanks to all of you who have already sent in your trivia questions!

Spirit of Christmas download site

 Before South Park became popular, it had been seen by a couple hundred people online. For a few years before it aired, the South Park Pilot or "Spirit of Christmas" episode floated around the internet. I have been getting tons of emails asking where people could possibly download the original episode. Well, there are few options.

1. You can go to the original download site that started the craze by clicking here.
2. Download Morpheus, Kazaa, or LimeWire and type in "Spirit of Christmas".

There are two versions of The Spirit of Christmas. The very first South Park episode is the Spirit of Christmas: Jesus Vs. Frosty, and the second one they made was called The Spirit of Christmas: Santa Vs. Jesus.

Good Luck to all of you on your search.
We still have no news on when the South Park figurines will be out. Just keep checking toyzz.com for more information.

Mr. Hankey and Simon Figurines Now Available for Pre-Order
Toyzz.com has finally made the Mr. Hankey and Son figurine set available for pre-order. According to them, these figures are an exclusive ultra-rare limited edition South Park action figure set and that they alone are the only store in the world that has been authorized to carry this item.

The South Park Mr. Hankey and Son 2-Pack will come mint the package. This limited edition piece is part of Series 2 of Mirage Toys highly anticipated South Park action figure line. The set is scheduled to ship in the fall. The original price for the figures is $18.98, but toyzz.com is having a sale and selling it for just $11.99.
Ultra-Rare Plushies
Yes, today is a shameless plug of toyzz.com, I apologize, but they've just got so much cool stuff this week. On the list for some rare plushies are two of the most hard to find plushies. Sparky, Stan's gay dog, and a South Park classic cow. I've only ever seen these dolls in Matt and Trey's office, not even on Ebay. I suggest if you've got the dough to get these items. But only if you're a collector willing to go the distance, and fork over some cash because these rare items, are a little on the pricey side.

DVDA MP3's available for download

Zuzu and GirlyGirl down over at mattntrey.com have collaborated with BigWill at the Scriptorium, and added some super cool DVDA songs to their site. They've also finally added the super cheesy Casio keyboard stylings of Trey Parker's "Immature: A Collection of Love Ballads For The '80's Man".

So for you smelly little DVDA fans, there's a huge fat stinky pile, enjoy. For all the other South Park primates... er I mean fans. I've been getting emails from people telling me that they've read somewhere that the new episodes will be airing November 5th, instead of the earlier October 22nd date. As far as I know, October 22nd STILL stands as the date of the new episodes. I will keep you all updated as soon as I get the news.

Red Man's Greed Sound Download News
I'm still working on getting those sound files for you A.S.A.P it's hard to catch up with people here when the show is on break. So many people are gone, and only a few of them remain popping in and out of the studio while working on "Team America." I've gotten the chance to see some of the sets, and hear a bit of the dialogue. The sets are so tiny and cute! I hope those puppets get paid well, because puppets are people too. Hopefully I will have the files ready for you by Friday.
