Yesterday I showcased the awesometacularness that was the limited-edition turnover of 7-Elevens into Kwik-E-Marts from The Simpsons Movie. Today I’m featuring a still-limited edition, but more widespread tie-in for the movie that came out back in 2007: The Simpsons family on their signature couch. This (slightly bigger than) life-size plastic couch was in just about every movie theater and festival that summer! It provided fantastic photo ops for fans as you could sit down and become your character within the family!
Here’s a quick snapshot of me after the midnight showing:

- Amazon Prime Video (Video on Demand)
- Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright, Dan Castellaneta (Actors)
- David Silverman (Director) – James L. Brooks (Writer) – Elise Belknap (Producer)
- Audience Rating: PG-13 (Parents Strongly Cautioned)
Unfortunately my Homer had lost his arm. But so is life I suppose.
This attraction was only a temporary movie promotion, found in movie theaters across America, but you won’t find them in theaters anymore. But sometimes you’ll run into these giant Simpsons characters at pop culture museums and other attractions on your road trips!
