Deinonychus Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 I was browsing around the Megabloks site (Yeah, I know "Megabloks Suck!"...bite me...) looking for stuff on their Pirates of the Carribean sets or some new Probuilders, when I notice THE DA VINCI CODE listed in their product menu... Wow...that's kind of bizzare isn't it. The link leads to nothing at the moment, but I'm really curious for curiosity's sake. I haven't read the book, but I can't imagine there'd be much build-worthy involved in the story, so can anyone figure on what could possibly be involved with this? :-D EDIT - Nevermind, I got to the bottom of this myself :-P "As soon as we heard just the rumor of a movie, we raced to get the license," said Warren Industries president, Barrie Simpson, of her company's sprint for the rights to make the board game for The Da Vinci Code movie.She said that a typical successful adult board game would sell around 100,000 pieces, but she believes for Da Vinci the board game will sell 200,000 to 250,000 minimum. She said the game will be priced between $24.99 - $29.99. Warren, a unit of Mega Bloks (MB.TO: Quote, Profile, Research), has already shipped the game to bookstores ahead of the May 19 movie release, hoping those who buy the book will also want the game. Move along, nothing to see here Quote
