New SpongeBob marketing guide (UK) - some interesting stuff on the way!

Fresh on the heels of the Brand Licensing Expo 2012, a new PDF has become available showcasing upcoming merchandise, style guides, fan events, marketing campaigns etc.

Here's the link, if you want to download and read it for yourself:

If you don't, here's some key points (bear in mind that this is a UK guide, though I imagine Nick US will be celebrating certain events in their own way, too):

• "It's a SpongeBob Christmas" - airs Dec 2012, new DVD and merchandising inc. Christmas decorations, stocking stuffers, activity sets, soft furnishings, clothing

• Fan events throughout 2013, including a convention, sneak peak at the 200th episode, new app "Happy Tappy" (launching Nov 2012) and multi-platform promotion

• Style guides for every demo

• New episodes and on-air events, and 40 new and refreshed toy lines in 2013

• Upcoming major events: 15 year anniversary, 200th episode, theatrical release

200th episode around the theaterical release sounds awesome.

Oh sweet neptune, I'm so excited :w00t:

Looking at the christmas stuff... No Sandy.... They don't like her very much do they? XD

Looking forward to the convention

15 years?!?! Holy clam...


*sniff*

Ooh, I like the nightsuit and the bag.

Are the figurines toys or ornaments?
