Eric Carr Commemorative Trading Card Set
Studio Chikara--known for its high-quality licensed publications and collectibles including GodzillaTM, Casper the Friendly GhostTM and Zen Intergalactic NinjaTM, will release a limited-edition trading card set based on the life of late drummer, Eric Carr. "Eric Carr is the member of KISS that has not received the recognition he deserves," says publisher Robert V. Conte. "It is time that Eric's complete story was told so fans can appreciate the significant contributions he made to the band and to music in general. " Carr--whose real name was Paul Caravello--answered KISS' advertisement seeking a replacement for drummer Peter "Catman" Criss. After joining KISS in mid 1980, Caravello's stage name was created along with his makeup persona known as the Fox. From late 1983 until Eric's death in 1991, KISS toured the world and recorded albums without their infamous kabuki makeup. To promote the upcoming release of the 72-card Eric Carr Commemorative Trading Card Set, Studio Chikara is releasing ten promotional trading cards in September. Five will be distributed in specially marked copies of Thoughtscape's Tale of the Fox home video. The remaining five will be distributed through various retailers, distributors, internet sites and products to be announced shortly. For further information, e-mail StuChikara@aol.com or info@StuChikara.com. [Disclaimer: The Eric Carr Commemorative Trading Card set is endorsed by the Caravello family. It is not authorized by the rock group KISS.]

"Tale of the Fox" Limited Edition Trading Card Offer
Thoughtscape Sounds, The Caravello Family and Studio Chikara have just signed an agreement that will certainly set the pulses of Eric Carr fans racing. "We've just negotiated a deal that will allow us to put a foil embossed, extremely limited edition trading card in our initial video offering of Tale of the Fox" said Nick Fa-Kouri, CEO of BIG DOG PRESENTS (one of the partners involved in the production of the video). "There will be a total of five cards in all, each bearing an exclusive image of Eric, with one in each video. For the completist, the other four cards will be available through a mail in offer allowing fans to get the entire five card, limited edition set by buying only one video. We want the fans to know that we care about them, and forcing them to buy five videos would be ridiculous." So, here is the deal: To guarantee that you will get the special edition video, your order must be postmarked by September 30th. After that, there is no guarantee that we can get you the limited edition version. For all of you who have already ordered, thank you, and rest assured you're getting the goods! We are all very psyched about this latest development and know the fans are ready for the show! Tell your friends, tell your neighbors, tell the world. Tale of the Fox arrives at your house in September!

"Tale of the Fox" Video Goes Global
Due to overwhelming presale response, Big Dog Presents and Creative Worx are proud to announce that the "Eric Carr: Tale of the Fox" video will be distributed worldwide by Thoughtscape Sounds. With an international clientele as well as global distribution partners, Thoughtscape was the natural choice for a project of this importance. Thoughtscape CEO Scott Sosebee had this to say: " When Nick Fa-Kouri and Jack Sawyers came to me with this project, I couldn't wait to get involved. Eric was such a positive force in this business, it only seemed right that we at Thoughtscape should attempt to give something back. It felt like a natural from the start and we couldn't be happier to be involved. With the quality of the projects that my partners have worked on in the past, we feel this will be another important piece of music history. In fact, it should come as no surprise that this is only the first of many collaborations between Thoughtscape Sounds, Big Dog Presents and Creative Worx."
