Gentle Giant is continuing its line of Simpsons Bust-Ups throughout 2006. The fourth series, first announced at Toy Fair, is due out around October. Like the first series, it will be THOH-themed and will consist of Dracula Hibbert, Grim Reaper Homer, Evil Krusty Doll, and Werewolf Bart. Entertainment Earth has a preorder up for those. The second series, which is food-themed, is due out in the next few weeks. The third series, which is music-themed, is due out around August. For a detailed look at Gentle Giant's work, see the review Michael Crawford did for the first series.

UPDATE: The regular packaging has now also been revealed by TVShowsOnDVD.com.

The announcement came a little later than usual, but now's it's official- The Complete 8th Season will be on DVD on August 15th. TVShowsOnDVD.com has all the details. There will be a special Maggie package and (most likely) a regular box as well, as with the last set. The set will include all 25 episodes as originally aired, creator commentaries on all, deleted scenes, animation showcases, The Simpsons House featurette with James L. Brooks, promotional spots with Matt Groening, and more!
