That’s right, it’s been twenty years since the lovable duo hopped onto the scene, and Telltale sure has the right idea of how to celebrate. We have a bundle of commemorative (mystery) merchandise to look forward to throughout the year, but what I’m really excited about is Telltale’s confirmation of a Surfin’ the Highway reprint to be available exclusively through their online store sometime in 2007:

“In addition to all of the content of the 1995 original (including “Monkeys Violating the Heavenly Temple,” the now classic “Bad Day on
the Moon,” and “On the Road,” which inspired the 1993 LucasArts Sam & Max video game), the new edition will also contain extra Sam & Max content developed over the last decade, such as rarely seen comic stories, previously unreleased art, and a new cover. The reprint
will debut exclusively in Telltale’s online store later this year. More details of the reprint, including pricing and availability information, will be announced in the near future.”

For more information and an email address which you can mail to get notified exactly when the reprint is available for release, follow this link.

Also of notice, the Season One disc looks like it’ll be ready to invade your mailboxes starting in July, and it’s loaded with a plethora of extras (see above link for details)! Additionally, in the works there’s a two-disc soundtrack and a little something called a Season One Case File that includes an assortment of goodies related to the episodes. Well, that’s all the news for today folks, hope you didn’t get overstimulated. Maybe now’s a good time to just draw up a nice, hot bath and give the day over to yourself.
