KEENEN IVORY WAYANS - WAYANS BROTHERS LAUNCH TRADING CARDS GAME

Comedy siblings the WAYANS BROTHERS have launched a new trading card game - based on neighbourhood insults they used to dish out when they were growing up.

SHAWN, MARLON and KEENEN IVORY WAYANS are the creators of The Dozens - bubble gum trading cards that come with comical insults.

Players score points by one-upping each other with the funniest jokes.

Shawn Wayans says, "We grew up in the Garbage Pail Kids era with the Wacky Packs. We miss that kind of fun we used to have when we were kids, flipping through the packs and chewing the gum and reading the funny little jokes."

The cards will be available on an exclusive basis at American BLOCKBUSTER video stores in America for June and July (05) and at other retail outlets after that.
