Legends of Laughter Action Figure Line to Feature Iconic Comedians

The Nacelle Company, parent company to the award-winning stand-up comedy label Comedy Dynamics, is set to unveil the Legends of Laughter action figure line featuring comedy legends, Lenny Bruce, Joan Rivers and Bill Hicks, ComicBook.com has learned exclusively. This release marks the first time the diversified media company known for Netflix's The Toys That Made Us, A Toy Store Near You, and The Movies That Made Us, as well as Behind The Attraction (that one's on Disney+), has blended both of its established brands into one collectible. Sprinkle in some nostalgia and you have what's likely to be a winning combination, especially with the announcement coming on the heels of HBO's George Carlin's American Dream

The first wave of pre-orders will be available on NacelleStore.com starting August 16th, in celebration of National Joke Day. In addition to Nacelle Company's online store, the figures will be available through hundreds of independent toy stores and other retailers worldwide. Also, as a first for the toy industry, each figure package will include a QR code that allows users to enjoy an exclusive previously unreleased track from that artist, which has been personally curated by the Rivers, Hicks and Bruce estates, respectfully.
