Just when you thought the trouble was running out, it's back with a vengeance! I have received a new supply of officially-licensed Jack Burton Fu Manchu tank tops in sizes S-2XL!

Click here to check it out!

There will be midnight screenings of Big Trouble in Little China on February 24 and 25 at the IFC Center at 323 Sixth Ave at West 3rd St in NYC. Click here for details.

Thanks to BTLC fan Joel for the head's up!

All of us at the Wing Kong Exchange would like to wish you a happy 2012!

Gary Chavez has finished the final part of his Fire and Fury story. You can read it here.

The new phpBB 3.0 forums are now up! Please re-register and start contributing to any Big Trouble-related discussion topics!

You can still access the old forums (read only) here.

After many years of hosting a phpBB 2.0 forum, I have decided to close the existing one and create a new, more spammer-proof phpBB 3.0 forum. The process will take a few days. You will still be able to read previous articles in the old forum, but to post new stuff on the new forum, you will need to re-register, sorry.

Also: I have added a new "About the Site" section in case some of you were wondering what this place is all about...

What do you think of the new look of the site? If you have any comments or suggestions, feel free to contact me.

Also: Gary Chavez's has written three new chapters to his "Fire and Fury" stories - read all six chapters in the Fan section!

Welcome to the new Wing Kong Exchange! Feel free to take a look around. I've organized the many sections of the site into new categories.

Be sure to check out Gary Chavez's new "Fire and Fury" stories in the redesigned Fan section!

I've just changed web hosts to Fatcow, and am working on redesigning the site. The forums were successfully transferred - I'm just trying to update it to phpBB3 (and purge hundreds of thousands of SPAM accounts). Look for some big changes to the site in the next few weeks.

Big Trouble fan PK reports that there will be a screening of Big Trouble in Little China tomorrow night (6/24) at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood, CA. This new 35mm print will play at 7:30PM, and it will be followed by a discussion with director John Carpenter, moderated by Geoff Boucher of the Los Angeles Times and HeroComplex.com

You can buy tickets on Fandango - General Admission is $11.

Also, in other news, there is currently a postal strike going on in Canada, so unfortunately I will be unable to ship orders there at this time. If you place an order (or placed an order in the last 2-3 weeks), expect some pretty serious delays until the strike ends.

And finally, Big Trouble fan and artist/illustrator ManlyArt is now selling his "Lo Pan Express" tee. Neat design!

While you can purchase officially licensed Big Trouble tee shirts and tanks here at the Wingkong Exchange, I wanted to mention a few other options out there on the web:

The White Tigers Pleasure Palace ($22.34 + Shipping) - Big Trouble fan BF has designed the perfect shirt for tourists who want to advertise their visit to Mrs. O'Toole's holding pen for Miao Yin. No guarantees if the shirt is tax deductible!

I was recently contacted by martial artist and actor Gerald Okamura, who played the Wing Kong fighter with the two golden revolvers, as seen to the right

Gerald graciously answered some interview questions for wingkong.net!

Just got an email from BTLC fan Christine for those of you planning on attending the Monsterpalooza on April 9th:

"If you RSVP to replyhong at gmail dot com, you can get in for $12 instead of the general admissions price of $15. This is the first time doing a show like this and James Hong would love all the support he can get in filling this 500 seat ballroom. Get your name on the list and pay at the door. See you there!"

So there you have it. If you haven't purchased tickets yet, follow the instructions above for a discount! Sadly I cannot make this event, but if you go, be sure to mention the good ol' Wingkong.net to Mr. Hong and Co!

Here's a fun bit of update news: I got an email from actor Gerald Okamura informing me that he too will be attending the Hong Show at Monsterpalooza on Saturday April 9 at 8:00PM at the Burbank Marriott Hotel, 2500 Hollywood Way in Burbank, CA.
