![]() There is also a set of Mystery Mini figures from Funko which are smaller than their regular figure line and come in a closed box so you do not know which one you will get. However, they do have some really cute mini figures for around $6 depending on what store you get them at:įunko Pop also has cute collectible figures, which are for sale at Hot Topic and should be available where other Funko figures are sold. Jill Pantozzi is a pop-culture journalist and host who writes about all things nerdy and beyond. I won’t show those because you can find them in all stores with merchandise for the film. And as for Valkas main dragon, his name is Cloudjumper. The basic figures are about the same, with new ones for the new dragons. Unfortunately he is sold out on their website and in most stores, but you can sign up here to be notified when they get a new shipment. Why they made this choice I will never know, they have other plush toys with permanently attached wings so it is disappointing but the toy still looks way better than other yet produced. The wings are not permanently attached, Toothless wears them like a backpack and you can take them off to dress him up. The best by far for this movie is the Build a Bear Toothless: There is now a plush pillow available, which has the best wings out there but the oddest face: This Toothless is from the show line, better but not great: Super low quality and mass produced, but at least they look more like the actual characters for this movie. The official plush available everywhere are still really bad. Come on, stuffed dragons basically sell themselves unless they look ridiculous. The first movie’s toy line failed here, the plush toys didn’t look anything like the actual movie characters. Some of that was fixed as show merchandise came out, but it wasn’t until this movie that things really improved. We lamented the failings from the toys for the first movie four years ago. Any time we can hold hands and show up like a global brand, it’s a good day,” Fitzpatrick said.There is a lot more cute and interesting merchandise available for this movie. ![]() and the Chinese market can both get behind and find success in, that’s a huge win. “Finding something for a brand like ours that both the U.S. opted to run with the creative on their various social media platforms (New Balance Canada and New Balance Mexico, for example). Plus, Fitzpatrick said at least 12 markets outside of the U.S. “For a very hyper-casual game mechanic like this, where a user could actually play two to three times within that timeframe - because it’s hard and you lose pretty quickly - those results are really good,” said Grossberg. Roughly one-third of those played all the way through. Additionally, TreSensa reported an average of 22 seconds spent with the game. Of all global consumers served the ad, 20% engaged. ![]() Instead it was building broad-based global awareness to the platform among game changers,” he said. While New Balance said it’s still too early to tell how the Cloud Jumper game has impacted sales, “early signs have been very strong,” Fitzpatrick said. The game did, however, generate a 5% click-through rate to New Balance’s mobile commerce site, although the brand did not specify what typical posts generate. “Given that this is a game, click-through wasn’t really the overarching goal. When users lost the game, they were presented with two choices: to play again or visit New Balance’s mobile commerce site. On the New Balance website, the brand describes the Fresh Foam sneakers’ “unbelievably soft and light foam” and states that it gives runners “a cloud-like feel to your run and workout.” TreSensa co-founder and CEO Rob Grossberg said the team was very conscious about the illustrations it used for this game, picking a character and items (like clouds) that would also educate consumers about key product attributes. In the game, players tried to move an animated, bouncing bunny character vertically up their screens, using purple clouds, pillows and New Balance-branded trampolines to propel it. “Even outside of this game-changer consumer, when we look at someone who is more style-focused, animations and illustration styles drive a really high engagement for us.” Plus, because most younger consumers tend to be mobile- and digital-first, Fitzpatrick said it made sense to create something animated that would live on mobile. “When you begin to look at enough content over a long period of time, we are able to see the traits that pop most consistently on our most engaged content,” said Ian Fitzpatrick, head of digital marketing at New Balance. Using a third-party tool called Hookit, which measures the value of all the content the brand creates, New Balance found that positing illustrations and animations to social media always drew high levels of engagement (mainly likes and comments) for the brand, especially among its target demographic for the Fresh Foam line.
