Here Come the Simpsons

The movie, The Simpsons, releases July 27, 2007 and the marketing hype is in full gear.

Pulp reader Kim from Cali sent this picture of a Mountain View 7-Eleven that was converted to a Kwik-E-Mart as featured on The Simpsons. Eleven 7-Eleven stores nationwide were converted to Kwik-E-Marts, and customers could buy collectibles like a Squishee (slurpee in a special cup), buzz cola, Krusty O’s cereal, and pink donuts.

On-line, you can see what it’d be to be Homer Simpson. You can Simpsonize Yourself by uploading a picture and digitally transforming it to look like Homie.

And it doesn’t end there! How ’bout matching kicks dedicated to the artists responsible for the Simpsons? You betcha! Last weekend, Kicks HI was one of the exclusive shops to sell these limited Simpson sneaks.

D’oh! Nice!!
