Tron Legacy To Have Exclusive Toys For Comic-Con Dan Koelsch, June 10, 2010 With San Diego Comic-Con just over a month away, we are sure to get more and more news about the convention.

Collider got the details and photos of the toys from Toy News International. There are two sets available at the show. First there is a replica of Sam Flynn’s lightcycle from the new film, and while it’s only $5, there are also only 3,000 pieces available.

I haven’t seen where or when they will be for sale on the convention floor, but we’ll update this article if we find out. Comic-Con Conventions Events action figuresComic-ConTron Legacy
