Good Luck Trolls were originally created in 1959 by Danish fisherman and woodcutter Thomas Dam.
Good Luck Trolls “mystery box” assortments are a new collectibles merchandise program by Dark Horse Comics under a license granted by Dam Things, who hold all rights to the works
of Thomas Dam. The mystery box was introduced to the market July 25, 2012.
The first collection offers up fifteen different versions of the
figures in various colors and with unique surface treatments, including
metallic, flocked, black-light sensitive, glitter, and glow-in-the-dark.
Mystery box (also known as “blind box”) trading figures are essentially
the same product, varying in decoration and materials, and sold randomly
out of sealed packages. Some of the figures are common to every counter
display, whereas “chase” figures are much harder to come by.
The Good Luck Trolls are presented in a counter display unit holding
fifteen individual blind boxes. Each Troll is packaged in an opaque foil
bag inside its box to prevent tampering or viewing prior to purchase.
Dark Horse also created a one-time limited edition of 1,500
green-body Good Luck Trolls with snow-white hair that are sensitive to
black light. They were sold exclusively at the Dark Horse booth at
Comic-Con International in San Diego, July 12–15, 2012.
I can't wait to get my hands on these...
