Today on a special Extra Edition of Talkin' Troma, we chat with Super7 founder and owner Brian Flynn. Super7 has been producing collectibles based on The Toxic Avenger and Toxic Crusaders for years, with its latest ULTIMATES! Glow in the Dark Radiation Ranger debuting this weekend at New York Comic-Con 2023. We chat about future plans for the toy line, his favorite character designs, Toxie's unique appeal, the culture of the toy business, and much more in this exclusive interview.

Super7 is a premier pop-culture design house and producer of lifestyle-oriented collectibles, toys and apparel based in San Francisco. Super7 has harnessed the graphics, aesthetics and energy of his youthful obsession with science fiction, giant monsters, comic books, punk rock, skateboarding, robots and rebellion to build a unique and innovative business that crosses all categories and is not bound by traditional manufacturing boundaries.

The company released their first ReAction figure based on the Toxic Avenger in 2017. Toxie made his debut as one of the very first Ultimates! figures in 2019 along with a wave of ReAction Figures based on the Toxic Crusaders. An expanded Ultimates line for Toxic Crusaders followed in 2022.
