There's a small blurb on Shawn in the Dec/Jan issue of Teen People:

Iceman KFC Toy

Apparently KFC had an X2 toy promo a while back and they offered an Bobby Drake/Iceman figure. The

shoot out.
Fiona has sent in a photo of the figure (which really does look like Shawn!) and you can view it

More on 'The Underclassman'
09.01.03
From the Hollywood Reporter:
Shawn Ashmore, best known as Iceman in the "X-Men" films, will star opposite Nick Cannon in Miramax
Films' "The Underclassman," which begins shooting in October in Los Angeles and Vancouver.
Nickelodeon veteran Cannon plays a detective who, with his schoolboy looks, goes undercover at an elite
private school and stumbles upon an international stolen-car ring led by one of his rivals at the school,
played by Ashmore. The investigation gets even more surprising when the detective uncovers the person who
has been using the students to steal.
Based on an idea by Cannon, "Underclassman" was written by "National Lampoon's Van Wilder" scribes
David Wagner and Brent Goldberg. Marcos Siega, a TV and music video veteran, directs.

Anime Insider Picks Shawn
08.19.03 || Contributor: Yoshi
If there was a live-action "Yu-Gi-Oh!" movie, who would 'Anime Insider' pick to play Joey? Who else but
Shawn! Here's what the August issue of the magazine has to say about why they want Shawn:
"This Animorphs and X-Men star's got the face to play pretty boy Joey. Plus Shawn's got
sweet down pat (and we all know Joey's a big softie deep down). The only irony will be seeing Iceman
whip out his Flame Swordsman."
